I.e., If I open a case and am prepared with good information, screenshots, logs, and a clear problem statement, that should hold some weight over whether or not I have a CCIE. Think about an Amazon product review, and how star ratings/comments help consumers understand what it is they are buying. Is it a piece of junk, a good value, or the best of the best?<br>
<br></div>I understand that the devil's advocate in all of us would say: Well that rating system can be abused to artificially inflate a friend's rating, or to damage the image of a person you dislike over that one bad case you had with them. However, I think these risks can be mitigated with the proper checks and balances to the point of making the system useful. You could start with attaching Cisco ID's to the reviews/ratings to remove the anonymity that most internet reviews provide.<br>
<br></div><div>Anyway, this is just something I have been kicking around in my head for a few years. I always like to pretend that there's already a rating system in place, and since I always treat my assigned TAC person with respect, I'd like to think my fictitious rating is 5 stars! Besides, you never know when karma may strike in your favor. ;)<br>
<br></div><div>And since we're on the topic of TAC: Thank you and the other TAC/HTTS folks who participate on this mailing list, helping all of us out with our many issues.<br></div><div><br></div></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<h3>Technical Service Requests (Case Routing)</h3>
<p>Service requests made to Cisco Technical Support (TS) by CCIEs in good standing, on behalf of an organization with a valid support contract, will be routed directly to the more experienced core TS support engineers. Routing is done automatically based on
Cisco User ID; no special phone number or URL is required. For more information, contact

<div>I'd love to hear the other (non Cisco) folks chime in on whether this applies to cases the CCIE works directly or opens and then hands off to a (non-CCIE) colleague.</div>

<div>Wondering if any of the Cisco guys could shed some light on a situation?</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Guys on my team, non CCIE, non Partner, are getting thrid party 'engineers' when they open TAC cases and very poor service. Is this the norm now? When I open a case I get a 15 - 20 minute response time even on sev. 4 cases.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>It's kind of goofy that in order to get a deccent TAC engineer I would have to open all of the cases and hand them off.</div>
