    It's most likely because they know it's messed up right now and are already trying to, frantically, find a fix for it.

    I can't believe they're being so silent about the issues with console right now. I thought there'd, at least, be some sort of effort to communicate that they're working on it.

    Err anyone else heard from "Chet"?
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis

    they do communicate, they just have this bad habbit of not stickying their feedback so 99% of users never see it.

    I foolishly lost my Game Registration Code for my alt account and need to recover it... not only have they NOT returned my call they've not answered my ticket I sent in either after responding with the generic email that never answers your question but tells you they'll consider your problem resolved if they don't hear back from you. Yes, I replied early yesterday and again this morning. Still nothing.

    Yes, I don't think Chet is a real person. He's probably just what they call the cheap autoresponse system they purchased. I've gotten some pretty terrible responses from him.

    I also got the exact same response to my technical support ticket with issue to being kicked to login screen randomly while playing. Here is the response

    We apologize that we have taken so long to get back to you in regards to your technical issue. Due to high ticket volumes, we will be unable to assist you further with this ticket. We understand this may be frustrating, and we are disappointed that we are unable to deliver a Customer Service experience that is up to our desired standards.

    I don't believe I have ever seen a company supplying a service simply go "sorry we are to busy get lost" essentially

    Chet is now taking calls for the Samaritans:

    Caller: 'Hi,I can't take any more, I'm standing on a cliff-edge wanting to end it all...'

    Chet: 'Oh, go take a running jump'.

    Sincerely I don't believe they know that "communicating" means much more than "advertising their products".

    I recently submitted a ticket highlighting a problem with my crafting bag not showing up.

    After two days the problem righted itself. The next day I got an email from customer support replying to me to tell me to re-boot my XB1 to resolve this problem.

    Then they sent me a survey to ask me about my experience. In the comments field of this survey I wrote that it would have been better had I been given the solution in writing while the problem existed (so I could do something about it) rather than after the problem had been fixed.

    They do things right but they have a lopsided way of going about it. This has been going on since beta pre-launch days.

    I got a survey thing 2 weeks later for something that didn't even get the initial generic response lol

    I think they are just unable to fix things at all.

    ...and all they are talking about is releasing new content in two months

    This is an excerpt from my favorite "customer support" email.

    Thank you for taking the time to get in contact with us, though I am sorry that it is due to [INSERT ISSUE]. I can understand how concerning this must be and appreciate you being so patient while we responded.

    Sucks when you forget to edit your copy and paste template...

    Yup I got that too when my ESO+ had the same exact issue; I filed a report Saturday since I needed it for maelstrom the following day but unfortunately I was unable to do it. Support finally got back to me yesterday and told me they can't do anything and won't give me a weapon as compensation which imo is unfair.

    I spoke to Microsoft and seeing as Microsoft for Xbox has REAL customer service they extended my ESO+ (Free of Charge) but they took me through some steps and stated that the problem is on ESOs end because they have the proof of purchase/activation showing on their systems.

    This! I've only been in the game a little over a month. I subbed when I got it and in one month my eso plus has dropped 3 times. A restart/ticket(dont know which one worked) fixed them but what's the deal on that? Xbox was showing eso plus under subscriptions...

    HAHAHA! Chet was the same person that sent me this too. It's a bulk response. No wonder my name wasn't even in the response.

    Good to know that it's the same person that sent all of these emails out too. Sounds like someone that shouldn't honestly be working in CS over at ZOS if this is the thing they have the gall to send to paying customers who simply want to play the game.

    It's a good thing he didn't send out a survey or I would have lambasted the generic response I got from him there, to be quite honest. It takes a lot to work me up, but this is the threshold for me with this game's horrendous Customer Service department now. After two years of dealing with this mixed bag of CS and the few agents that I've had that actually cared and helped me, I just decline to use their email submission form altogether. I'm not going through their Customer Support any longer.

    Either it is someone not doing his job right at ZOS or a fake alias ZOS' CS department created to send a generic response to people that can pretty much be summarized as "Got a problem? Deal with it."

    Can we please not get shafted like this? It's the reason I left the game before, and it'll be the reason I leave again if our issues aren't dealt with appropriately when we go through Customer Service.
