Hi WonderingAboutThat, I hope you're doing well on your end! 

 

I was able to locate the ticket that my colleague opened for you, and it seems it has been closed by the system due to inactivity. 

 

I'd suggest that you reply back to your ticket, in order to let the agent know that you checked with Apple about this. That should create a new ticket, and you can take it from there!
