Hi, This might be a silly question but, did you explain to them that you are a voiceover user? Because the feature your talking about is only active with voiceover on. If they are not voiceover users, and don't know that you are, I doubt the person trying to help you would know this. In my opinion, its pretty obscure. I saw someone attack Apple customer service for this in a previous portion of this thread but, I couldn't kill them for something like this.
