Response SLA to JIRA tickets from Linux foundation support team

Hello LF Training & Certification Team,

By now you already know, but the unknown wait time on response to a JIRA ticket continues to be disappointing.

Many of your forums mention, LF support takes several business days (no holidays, no weekends) to respond to a ticket, but what is the exact response SLA to your customers?

LF exams cost a hefty amount and customers paying that definitely should be provided better visibility on what goes behind the scene, once a ticket has been submitted.

Many customers end up raising LF ticket, after spending hours troubleshooting with PSI support team , not ending up having a resolution (which adds up the disappointment).

I am a sailor on same boat, PSI failed to launch my CKAD exam, PSI support has no control in solving issues and LF support does not respond.

Why should the customers paying for certification exam, be a part of this waiting game, just to hear that you're experiencing higher than normal reports of issues ?

Instead why not carry an approach to resolve the recurring issues for good, provide a stable, reliable, responsive, customer friendly platform.

    Hi @purush09

    Response time varies depending on a number of factors; it can take several business days for the Linux Foundation Customer Support team to address your ticket, as each ticket is processed in the order it's received.

    Forums are used for course content related questions and monitored by the Training Team. We do not have any insight into the support queue. Rest assured that once your ticket is assigned, they will assist you.

    Same here. I raised a ticket on 12th Jan and since then the ticket shows waiting for response. I couldn't complete my exam due to technical issue which took 2 hours to resolve. I need help with rescheduling the exam. My job is dependent on that. Please help as soon as possible.

  • Dear Linux Foundation Team,

    I hope this message finds you well. I am reaching out with an urgent issue regarding my PCA exam scheduled for 20 Feb at 6 PM.

    When attempting to start the exam by clicking on the "Launch" button, the PSI Secure Browser is not starting, preventing me from beginning the exam. I have ensured that my system meets all technical requirements and followed the instructions provided, but the issue persists.

    Given that my exam is scheduled to start soon, I kindly request immediate assistance in resolving this issue. Your prompt support will be greatly appreciated, as I am eager to take the exam as planned.

    Thank you for your urgent attention to this matter, and I look forward to your swift response.

    Ticket - TCCS-132248

    Regards,
