This has been answered and discussed many many times. unfortunately complex applications could take many months to decide. The longest waiting time reported here so far was a year where the applicant was refused an extension for not being a genuine entrepreneur at the end. You MUST wait to hear back and you should expect a long waiting time as probably your case is being investigated.
Contacting UKVI will not help you with your case.
You can ask the help of your local MP but there is no evidence that an MP's follow up with HO could expedite the application process.

stay calm. Just keep concentrate on your business , I think if you are planning to go out of country then only reason to write a request

It's all depend on the complicity of the business type , some businesiness take longer to settle but most importantly it's require to check process / progress / activities during the years

I have read the his post, it's totally disgraced when there was no such rule in place on his initial application, if you got this type of decision after all hard work ,struggling in order to bring business in positive position and decision on basis of some gray areas out of PBS.
