Is it normal for a complaint to be instantly closed as resolved?

I am unhappy with the way my renewal was handled, and raised a complaint on Thursday.  I received an acknowledgement via email and the status of this complaint is "pending".

On Friday I got a "thanks for making those changes!" email which directly contradicted the wishes I had put in my first complaint (I had asked for certain add-ons to be removed, which wasn't an option online and the Live Chat agent was incapable of helping; the email confirms removal of the add-ons I wanted to keep and confirmation the ones I wanted rid of will be retained).  Not having the option to respond to the complaint, I raised a second one.

I did not get an acknowledgement to for the second complaint, but I saw on my Complaints History page that it was marked as "resolved" within an hour of my raising it.  The email addresses on both complaints are the same, and I don't have a spam filter set up on my email system.

How can I find out why this case was immediately closed?  Thank you.

    You misunderstand the purpose of the complaints procedure. It is not to make you happy. It is to close the complaint down as quickly as possible to make the figures look good for Ofcom.
