<p>Yes I had a situation like this a couple of days ago. I was
trying to file a response to an Office Action, with government
fee.</p>
<p>I would successfully log in at Patent Center. So far, so good.
Then I would click around to upload the response to the Office
Action. This would sort of work except sometimes the screen would
jump around (with no hands anywhere near the keyboard or the touch
pad) and would end up at a main login page for Patent Center.</p>
<p>I would click around to look at the auto-saved submissions, and
there was the response that I had uploaded. Okay, click on that
saved submission. Then I would click around very quickly trying
to click "submit" before the next time that Patent Center went
nuts. Eventually after several cycles of this, I managed to click
"submit" and I managed to e-file the response.</p>
<p>But of course what remained was to pay the government fee.
Several cycles came and went during which I tried to get to the
screen for paying the government fee. No good. <br>
</p>
<p>I finally gave up and prepared a form 2038 and faxed it in, to
pay the government fee. This was all on September 2.<br>
</p>
<p>If there is anything the USPTO is good at, it is collecting
fees. That fax got acted upon within one business day (September
3), unlike some Powers of Attorney that I faxed in a week ago,
that have not yet been acted upon.</p>
<p>So yes I did eventually get my response filed despite the
flakiness of Patent Center that day.</p>
