When you shoot the G27 with the extended magazines, is any part of your hand touching the extended portion of the magazine? If you use the extended portion of the magazine as part of your grip, it can result in failures to feed. When I shoot my G27 with longer magazines, I stick my pinky finger out and make sure not to touch the magazine with my hands.

Yeah I think I've talked to that guy before, he'll say anything to get you off the phone as quickly as possible because he apparently hates his job, I wouldn't believe a single word he says.
I use G23 magazines with #5 followers in my G27 and I have no problems. I also use newer G23 magazines with #8 and #9 followers, and I use Glock-made 22-round magazines with #9 followers, all with no problems.
If you still had two failures to feed with post-ban magazines, that shouldn't happen, it should be flawless. That suggests that the issue may be using the extended magazine as part of the grip, or there's something wrong with the gun. If it's the gun, it could be a weak guide rod spring assembly. It may also be a tight extractor, either the extractor is out-of-spec and doesn't move freely enough or it has a lot of residue built up around it. The extractor being the cause is less likely since you don't have problems with G27 magazines.
