AFFers,
The VA complaints email system seems slightly ridiculous. I complained about a number (2 on the same day, and another the week before) of cancelled flights and the way the staff handled it at the airport. This was back in January (when it happened and when I lodged a complaint). The system is that they will respond in 21 business days. Which is about a month in real time.
I got a response about 2 weeks ago saying that yes it was unfortunate etc etc. No compensation (tangible / intangible). I responded to the email they sent me. Now, if I were to expect a response, I would be receiving it in April at the earliest.
Would this be the slowest conversation between two people trying to resolve a conflict/situation?
I understand they would get thousands of complaints, but the system of having to wait another 21 business days for another response on the same issue seems ridiculous.
