How long on average is it taking for the help desk to respond?
My account is currently sitting with two nss despite providing bricklink with
the details it needs to remove them.
In the past it would be sorted overnight but it's been about 2 weeks I believe.
I'm scared to open a new ticket in case it goes back to the end of the queue
again

There is no average response time.
Because apparently no one has yet received a response via the new Helpdesk.
I have mentioned this here in the forum several times:
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1457362
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1460868
https://www.bricklink.com/message.asp?ID=1464889

But nobody knows now, the admins are silent and the forum moderators don't
get any information either.

You would think the would get more staffing and more updated platform since some
of us spend over $600 a month for this service.

I finally sent an email to Lego corporate asking them to address this situation.

Maybe if all sellers send them emails, they will at least communicate SOMETHING
about the situation. It is really poor business practice to have this problem
continuing for so long when you have sellers paying fees every month.

Or, corporate will conclude that the BL fees charged are too low and raise them
to "improve" service.

Yes!

Too bad more users don't post here. I think most of the userbase doesn't
know that the forum exists and I wish BL would highlight it more.

Can an admin please look at this.

I'm waiting for an answer for 2 months to remove one nss.
I don't know what else to do.

Whatever Help Desk 'upgrades' they did that switched us to a ticketless
system did our community a real disservice. People rely on this site for their
income and shouldn't have to resort to posting in the Forum to get a reliable
response.

BrickLink please fix this.

Thanks,
