I don't know about telephone response times, but electronic response is nonexistent (for me at least). Since this started I have sent them an email, a FB message, two tweets and then two more emails, all about a single cancelled flight and have not received ANY response to any of them. I do expect some delay, but no response at all is a bit much really. There's no point even trying the call centre as the poor agents won't be able to do anything for me anyway - I'm trying to refuse a voucher and get an actual refund for the cancelled flight and I'm sure they'd just tell me to email a request anyway.
Hss anybody else had any Email (or Twittier) response recently?

I have been in contact with them several times in recent days. Saturday evening I was able to get through to the call centre after waiting only 1 minute, and they have responded to my Twitter DM several times. In fact, yesterday morning they replied within 10 minutes!

Call Centre Disconnections
Hello All.
I received an email from Aegean that my Miles and Bonus reward ticket had been cancelled. Ive just called the call centre using the gold member number on the back of the card (210 6261000) two times in the last 30 minutes and both times the call was disconnected at the 10 minute mark while I was waiting for an agent. Has anyone else been having the same difficulties calling (its about 11:00 am on Wednesday)? Can anyone perhaps suggest a better number to call. The flight was scheduled for June 7. Thank you.

I called yesterday at 11:30AM (Greek time). It took me a couple of tries for the line to ring (and get into the IVR menu), but once there, it had only a ~1 minute wait time.

Today was my first experience calling A3 and I have to admit I'm impressed. I got hit with a double whammy of outbound direct flight cancelled and inbound direct flight postponed by 6 hours (into the wee hours of the morning). I called in and got through in less than 5 mins to an extremely competent agent that was also trilingual (spoke fluent Greek, English and Italian). She managed to rebook both legs through ATH on a much more expensive ticket, no questions asked, and the whole process must have taken less than 2 mins. Puts a lot of the "efficient" northern European carriers to shame.

I experience with BA was that they would say they tried to call but I hadn't missed any calls. I have never needed for A3 to call me back but the CC is veru efficient and fast with Gold related issues and just booking changes.
