~Vikram's review of British Airways customer service

GetHuman: So how would you sum up your experience for GetHuman's British Airways customer community? We'll censor any IDs, numbers, or codes and any inappropriate words here out of respect to the millions of other customers using this resource.
~Vikram: Each time I call the message says they can't take the call due to heavy call volume. So basically no one answers. Once I got a message which said wait time exceeds * h. How can BA be so pathetic ? Am I expected to hold ** h ? i work for a living. And the changes I need to make can't be done on the web so I am forced to call.
