Has anyone had difficulty in getting through to the RNIB Helpline today?  I
have had the phone on hands-free next to me for almost an hour.  One guy
tells you to hold on or press 0 to leave a message, while a female comes on
saying that they have a high volume of calls on Mondays and Fridays, and
that if the call is non-urgent, it would be better to call back on Tuesday,
Wednesday or Thursday am.  Did you ever hear the like of this?  You would
think RNIB was a multi-national organisation with masses of call centres
around the world.  If they got their talking book service in order, I
wouldn't need to contact them in the first place.  As it is, I need to chase
up lost books, and I can't even get through.  Apart from having a good rant
and letting off steam, is anyone else finding this incompetence?  And is
RNIB Helpline only running part-time these days?

This is a seriously ridiculous situation.

Kind regards,
