Daily Task List in Calendar is corrupted
Hi Julia,
Thanks so much for your message. It has proven to be extremely difficult to find out where to turn with this issue. The whole Microsoft support experience has been sub-standard and not at all what I would expect for a paid product. The support process seems to be deliberately designed to make it difficult, even for paid customers, to make contact with the relevant support area.
I initially escalated the issue via my service provider (Telstra) who escalated to the Microsoft Engineer. He was excellent and was very thorough in his initial troubleshooting. We spent two hours together on the phone. However I don't believe the Microsoft Support Engineer escalated this issue any further. He stated there would be more of a chance it would be looked at if details were logged by a customer. He stated that he believed it was a feature-related issue and advised me to log details on Outlook Uservoice. I did as he advised but subsequently received an email from an unmonitored Microsoft email advising me not to log the issue on Uservoice, but to log it on one of the following forums:

I chose the last link, however it does not work! I had no way of making contact with Microsoft so went back to my service provider, who recontacted the Microsoft Support Engineer, who then advised that I log my issue here.
As you can probably tell, I am less than impressed by this passing from pillar to post, especially since this is a paid product. I would be extremely grateful if you or your colleagues could, once and for all, advise the correct process/forum for escalating this issue. I would also be grateful if you could pass details of my experience onto your customer experience team so that your customer support processes might be improved. Thank you.
Best regards,
