If this doesn't get fixed, I need to return the Kobo.

Front line customer service doesn't have an actual clue about most things. If this is a firmware issue there is no way it's going to be fixed in 48 hours. While it's obviously a significant bug I'd be very surprised if it got fixed before the next firmware update which is likely a month or two away because it's not a showstopper bug (i.e. preventing most people from reading on the device).
If you scrounge around in the forum it is relatively easy (just a line to add in the config file maybe?) to set the device to only refresh every xx pages (up to once every 99 pages). May not be a perfect solution, but if you really like the device otherwise it might get you through until it gets fixed.
EDIT: sorry, just realized you wanted end of chapter so you can anticipate it so this solution likely isn't going to help.
