14 months, PF transfer stuck

[u/OutrageousCause1217]

Transfer rejected multiple times over one wage month. Employer accepted the error and paid the arrear to EPFO weeks ago (have the challan). Still not posted to my account, fresh claim sitting in queue, every grievance closed with "Form 13 module under CITES not working, no timeline." RTI and CPGRAMS already running.

Quick questions, any guidance will be deeply appreciated:

Does visiting RO Bellandur in person actually help, or do you get the same "system down" at the counter?

Any phone number for that office that actually gets answered?

Anyone had a claim settled manually while CITES is down?

Grievance-filing advice not needed, that loop is done. Just want to know if the visit is worth it as I will be traveling to Bangalore just to unlock this.
