Phone queues too long, reception unhelpful

I have to say, where do I even begin – if I were to describe everything that has occurred over the past couple of days, you would essentially be reading an entire novel. It can take up to 2 hours just to get through on the telephone, and even when you do manage to connect, you may find yourself speaking with someone whose manner feels quite unwelcoming. Should you attempt to seek clarification about how certain matters are being handled, they may simply disconnect the call, leaving you to face the prospect of waiting hours to reconnect again. You are instructed to complete an online form in order to book an appointment with a clinician, and when I mentioned my particular circumstances and health considerations, I was told that this requirement applies regardless. When I sought to discuss this further, the call was terminated. What staff in these positions may not fully appreciate is that they are potentially making their own roles redundant, as automation continues to advance – which does not appear to be far away – there may be little need for such intermediary positions in the future. It would be preferable if those who demonstrate poor interpersonal skills were among the first to be replaced by such systems.
