I got put on hold 45 minutes ago. My license got approved on the 12th of December and my car was printed yesterday. Maybe that helps you

You just kept on calling the 1 (800) 731-4000 number and pushing 1(english) 5, and then 2?

And eventually got through?

I got through today but had to call probably 30 or so times to get in the queue. Waited in queue for about 15min and then got an agent. This was around 10:15 this morn.

7x isn't enough. That said, people on here report that it is best to email the Ontario CFO.
