Typical Wait Times and Tips for Faster Service
During regular business hours (8 AM – 6 PM PT, Monday‑Friday), average wait times range from 3 to 7 minutes. Calling early in the morning or late in the afternoon can reduce hold time. If you encounter a longer wait, use the "call‑back" option offered on the automated menu; you'll receive a return call instead of staying on hold.
