Seems like "Mr. Gross" is just making s*** up about what's AAvAAilAAble
Or it seems like AA is making up S*** on what exactly is called AAvAAilAAble.
Life is as good as you make it...

That's how 95% of these complaints with govt agencies go, IME.

Complainant: XYZ Corp violated their contract and the law, and stole a million dollars.

XYZ Corp: We appreciate your feedback. As per regulation, we haven't violated our contact, we haven't violated the law, and we haven't stolen a million dollars. We appreciate your feedback, value our customers, and strive for their satisfaction.

ABC Agency: Being as XYZ Corp responded satisfactorily to the complaint and addressed all the issues, this matter is now closed.

Complainant: The response is 100% fabricated. They haven't disproven any of the clear evidence submitted.

ABC Agency: Being as this matter has been closed, you will have to submit a new request.

Repeat steps 1-5.
Who do you think you are fooling? You think you are going to pull a quick one on your Creator? Good luck with that.

You have to call up ba. And sometimes even HUCA.
But the past couple months I have had the same experience.
