It’s some Amazon based system which will require you to enter your club number so they can tell where you’re calling from. You won’t get through if they recognise the club number as a UK one! She said it’s because the phones are getting jammed up with UK callers and they are under staffed meaning they aren’t able to service their North American customers."

Bravo BA. The solution to many of your customers wanting to call you outside of your call centre hours in the UK isn’t to have a 24h contact centre like every other global airline… nope. It is to stop those in your home market from being able to contact you at all at times that suit them.
