Requests have involved a) obtaining receipts that I can use for company reimbursement (UAs system is abysmal in getting receipts correct - especially for changes, and changes, and changes) and b) getting seats on a partner airline (SAS is the latest problem - it's impossible to get advance seat reservations on the websites of several partner airlines).

Here's an example of a message received 30 minutes ago: "We are focused on past date events here at Customer Care and I feel you would receive better service from..." This was never the case in the past, but seems to be the norm in the last 30 days.
