Why does it take so long for agents to respond

Why am I not able to send meter reads in through the app anymore?

Why do I get a "Service ineligible" message when trying to upload it via the website?

Why do your chat agents take so long to reply to a message, but when I take a bit too long, the ticket is just closed and I have to start over?

Sorry for the delayed response Hendrik, as we are getting messages higher than usual. Just to confirm, do you want us to update the meter reads shared by you on your account?

As per my conversation with another agent today, I am unable to do read updates on my ap[p and also on the website, so I am trying to get it updated somehowRead

I dont suppose you have an update on my problem with updating the readings on my profile?Read

From what I was able to see online, there are a number of people who have been unable to do read updates since start of OctoberRead
 
It has now been 17min since this agent replied to me.
 
This was after chatting with an agent for almost an hour this morning and her advising me to just upload a picture of my reading to this chat once I got home from work and then proceeded to close the chat and the bot asking me to rate the service.
 
I will definitely be looking into changing providers as I also had to wait two months to get my nbn installed earlier this year.

I did not even notice it at the time, but the initial agent took so long to reply to me that the chat timed out on their side and that is why the agent changed from Animesh to Sayantan.

How is AGL satisfied with this service delivery?
