My thinking at the moment is, they are very quick to take your money and very quick to cancel your subscription when it falls due. However when they have your money… The time you have invested, your ongoing support for a game that you enjoy and your financial investment appears to mean very little. But admittedly my thinking is clouded by the frustration of waiting for said response.

It completely depends on what time of day you submit the ticket. Although they have 24 hour coverage, the coverage during certain hours may not be as good. I believe most GM's are available during evening hours on Eastern Standard Time, but those are also the hours where most players are active. I am in Pacific Standard Time myself, and I typically don't log on till after 9 PM because I spend time with my wife to have dinner and do other things..... which is after midnight EST.
In the past, I have gotten a response within half an hour, to something like 4 or 5 hours later..... last ticket I did was about 45 minutes, last week. I did that ticket around 21:30 PST, so that would be 0:30 EST, and they responded about 45 minutes later.
Please note that if you have a problem on a certain character, you don't have to be logged on to that character when the GM contacts you, they can find you on the account and which character is logged on. So if you get stuck, file the ticket, log off of that character, and play an alt for a while until you get contacted. You can then log on to the other, "problem" character, and sort out the issue.
