Hello Kevin.
I'm not comfortable sharing personal information such as email address, phone number and router serial in a public forum. Is there a way I can send to you direct or private?
I also called back netgear support as still no call. Frustratingly I had to go though everything again with the agent from scratch even though all info and error codes, screen shots were on the case. They did not find any record of their net gear colleague passing the support ticket to your customer service L2 team, hence why had to go through everything again. I was assured that will have a call back the next day.
Also... I do see the new subscription on the Mynetgear.com - My Subscriptions web site, but not on the amour.netgear.com web site which still shows the old subscription as expired. I suspect this is why my bitdefender windows installs now don't work as they don't see the active subscription. The agent was not able to provide any trial codes to get the AV up and running while netgear fix the subscription issue.
This is shockingly poor experience of support that I'm now on the 4th support agent, hours spend on the phone, and each time I have to go through everything from scratch and still zero progress. I am left with a poor perception of support quality from netgear.
Also the netgear support chat bot does not escalate to a support agent it just hangs for 30mins plus trying to connect me to an agent saying 1st in que and will connect in 60-90 seconds. 30mins later still not working so I cancel, so I then phone up.

Thank you.I've sent Kevin my details via PM.
Update from my side I called netgear support again as I'd still not received a call back from the customer support team following the 2 previous previous attempts by the Netgear support to escalate the call (as the support agents team were not able to fix).
The support agent reviewed my ticket and advised there was a problem with last attempt of escalation and so the support ticket was not passed to the customer support team who are apparently the only ones who can fix.
So now on to the third attempt by the netgear to support to pass on my ticket to customer support team before anyone can investigate. This time the agent kept me on phone on hold while he talked to the customer support team, then came back that someone from will call me back.
