What does it take to get a coin composite added?

It's been over a month as I requested to add 2 PCGS coin #'s to existing slots in the World Coins Manufactured by Mints of the United States Type Set
Slot: Philippines - 1969 Piso (KM-201)
- All coins matching composite are PL63-68. No MS coins loaded. I'm trying to add a MS65 coin: 53945613
Slot: Panama - 1973-1983 Clad 50 Centesimos (KM-12b)
- Cameo coins are not loaded. DCAM's are but not CAM's. I'm trying to add a 1974 PR68CA coin: 53945619
I've requested this through the set page, sent an e-mail as well as left a voicemail since no one picks up the Set Registry customer service phone...

My last 'normal' bog-standard new year's issue Australia coin took just over 5 weeks for them to add it -- just cleared last week -- and there was absolutely nothing obscure or esoteric about it. If it's something they've actually got to pick up a few books and do research over, I wouldn't be surprised for it to take a lot longer.
That's the thing! The coins are a dead match with nothing complicated.
Re-reading - guess I glazed over the CAM/DCAM differentiation -- yeah, that should be pretty cut-n-dried, I'd think. (I'd had it in my mind that you were adding something 'new' that might need to be verified/proven where it was minted, etc... some research needed there, but this? This should be simple) -- Still... my last one was 5 weeks - it's clear that they're not paying much, if any, attention to the Set Registry these days, they pretty much started writing the whole thing off 5 years ago. I'm pretty sure PCGS is just hoping if they ignore us long enough, we'll just all go away :-/
It's sad since I've been sending dozens of raw coins in for this set to be in the PCGS registry.
Yeah, same here :-( -- They used to care :-/
I have had one pending for about 5 weeks now and based on @oldsmagnet it will hopefully happen soon.

@WaterSport, 2025 can be requested at the same time...
Apparently they don't even want to claim their sites anymore. -- With every set link bringing up an "Oops! Errors Happen" page, I guess I can't blame 'em, I wouldn't want to claim it either!
