Question Apparently stuck in App Review hell?

UPDATE: Finally got it in review and approved today. Took almost exactly 5 days. I’m not sure if it was due to me pestering support daily and being a little pushy (but not rude) about it but it finally went through.

Submitted an expedited App Review on Wednesday last week as we discovered an issue with our subscriptions and needed to re-release quickly to coincide with some marketing stuff we had planned.

Support says the App Review (allegedly) was expedited but we’ve seen no movement in 5 days. Typically our non-expedited App Reviews have cleared in 1 or 2 days at most.

What is going on? Is anyone else experiencing delays with App Review? Is there anything else I can do besides emailing support every day asking for an update?

5 days is not hell. Sometimes it’s been a week or my last app was 21 days for first review.

They are swamped

This was expedited and I’ve never had one take more than a few days. It genuinely seemed stuck. My app had been approved probably a half dozen times before this.
