    Just spent nearly an hour in a chat session with an Adobe Support rep. While waiting for responses I thought I’d tally up what I’ve spent on Adobe products over the years. Turns out to be $10,363.84 since 2000. Perhaps not a lot compared to others, but I would think that better support would be warranted. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by dealing in the past with support from companies like Serious Magic, Macromedia, etc. Anyway, here’s the chat transcript…

    I’m trying to look at my Creative Cloud account information, but at the ‘Plan Information’ tab I have been getting this message for several days – “We’re sorry, something seems to be wrong on our end. Please try again later.”

    Still haven’t heard from Adobe Support. I’m afraid that their previously good quality of support has gone the way of the norm.
