Status check: Reason for escalation?

[singhmohit]

So we applied for my wife's spouse visa (Indian passport, husband me has British passport) on 21st Feb (date of bio-metrics).
I enquired on 27th March and got replied "yet to be assessed".
But when I enquired more recently on 04th April through their online status check website; I got the following reply on 08th April (thats right on a Saturday!):

I mean, seriously? What have I done wrong? Surely I provided them all the info when I filled up the online form to check the status.....Am I not supposed to contact them more than once?
Any thoughts please?

I did not raise a formal escalation... I just filled up their online "Status Enquiry Form" and the text in italics is the response I got.

We got the same email, do you have to reply? Its been 5 months know and we got this email in reply to our follow up email. Did you reply Mohit? And what reason did you put down for escalation?
