Adobe chat says it will connect me to an agent, then never does — how can I escalate?

I need help escalating a support request. Adobe’s virtual assistant repeatedly says it will connect me with a human advisor, but no agent ever joins and the chat eventually resets.

I have an unresolved billing/subscription issue and need a case number plus a real billing specialist. I only need Photoshop and Lightroom, and I do not want my Photography plan interrupted while the account is reviewed.

Can an Adobe employee or community manager advise the reliable route to open or escalate a billing case when the signed-in chat queue does not connect? I can provide case details privately to an Adobe representative.

I will not post account, payment, or order details here.

    Well. your support doesn’t work at all! sgends are useless, badly designed AI it’s shame for Adobe to have it at all. My case is dragging for mon ths as I never get connected to the real human that actually can help.

    Thank you for the update, ​@maria27650545rsh4.

     

    I understand how frustrating it is to have this continue for months without getting the help you need.

     

    I can confirm that you currently have an active support case, ADB-47896122-D5M6, regarding this concern. Rather than starting another support request, please add any updates or additional information directly to your existing case.

     

    You can review and update an open case through your Adobe account. Please see the information on how to respond to an open case and provide additional information or files in your Support history.

    https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/customer-support-portal.html

     

    Please let us know here if you have any general questions about accessing or updating the case, ​@maria27650545rsh4.

    This is a public forum, not Adobe support... other users can't see your account to help
    This is the correct way to contact support
    https://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?rghtup=autoOpen

    -and enter AGENT in the box asking How can we help you?
    -or contact adobe support @adobecare at twitter/x
