I don't think I have ever spent 155 minutes on the phone to anyone. I put it down to a new/badly trained call center operator.

I was unable to make the change online as for some reason it was locked on an even later fight from LHR.

True, but that either involves a taxi or multiple modes of public transport with 4 changes.
