British Airways - doncha hate 'em?

Maybe a little less hateful than RyanAir, but still frustrating to deal with - have you tried speaking to them?

I recently bought a ticket online - £125.78.  I subsequently received an email confirming my payment together with a breakdown of charges. No matter how I added these charges up, I could not get them to equal £125.78.

So I phoned customer support. Four times. Didn't get through once.

So I emailed customer relations. Received an acknowledgement with impressive speed. Then received another email:

Thank you very much for contacting us.

To be sure you have an answer from us as swiftly as possible, I would be grateful if you will speak to our customer support team. They deal with all pre-travel enquiries and they'll be happy to give you individual assistance.
