I had been lurking for the past couple of months, and figured I was going to get the CA last week.
I didn't get it Friday(8/16) morning so I called the 877 number to escalate.
Was on hold about 10~15 minutes and the nice lady escalated my case.
I don't know if escalating helped or not but I got the CA the next day. I don't think escalating delays your application any further so you might as well do it if you're over 100 days.
Still hoping to find an earlier interview.
Good luck to everyone still waiting.
Update: Interview rescheduled for 9/3/19.
It looks like they opened up a bunch of new interview times this afternoon. At least for the El Paso EC.

One question for those that have received their GE cards. How long did it take to receive your card in mail after final approval? I need the physical card since I'm using it for mostly for Sentri.
