The thread title is a little misleading.
Poor staffing due to waht ? Peak periods misjudged ? Too many vacations simultaneously ? Cost savings ? Attitude of " let them eat cake" ?

More seriously this is not good enough for the blue line, let alone the gold line.

Offering a call back if the call centre is busy should really be the standard in 2017.

On a related note I find the constant references to the web site while holding rather aggravating: if whatever I wanted to do were possible on the web site I would already be doing that.

(And if it were possible but I didn't know then simply mentioning the web site wouldn't do me any good either.)
Yesterday I called AA, was told" there is a 22 min hold, may we call you back, you will not lose your place in line Call back was in less than 15 minutes. Ac Better than others.ceptable.
