Manage your Service Requests!
With this frustration in mind, I'd like to offer a few suggestions that might minimize your frustration:
1. Be your own best advocate! These are your SRs - make sure that your Oracle Support engineer knows both HOW and WHY this issue is important to you and your company.
2. Be responsive! If this is an important issue to you, following up quickly to any action plan is crucial in progressing your issues and resolving them in a timely manner.
