Excerpt from a call with Agoda
Friday, June 21, 2024 12:36 PM
What are the hours and when should I call?
Agoda operates the call center for this 866-656-8207 phone number Mon-Fri 9am-5pm ET.The short answer is that you should call on a Tuesday.This observation and the following section are based on analysis of a sample set of 2,029 calls made in the last 90 days using our free, web-based phone (see above).
When you use our free AI-powered phone to call and talk, wait on hold, or navigate for you, it will automatically wait until the Agoda call center opens before trying to call. It will ask your permission before it places the call, so you can also further delay that scheduled call until you are ready. But that means you can "set it and forget it" ahead of time.
An important note: busy times vs hold times vs best time to call
When we refer to busy or less busy times, we are talking about the volume of calls. The busiest times are when the most people are calling this Agoda phone number (least busy times have fewer people calling). This high call volume does not necessarily mean that you will have a long hold time when you call. Companies like Agoda staff their call centers differently based on the time of day and day of the week, so you may experience a shorter wait on hold at the busiest of times. When we refer to the best time to call, we are referring to the optimal combination of lower call volume and shorter wait times.
The least busy time to call
The least busy day to call Agoda is Thursday.The most busy day to call is Monday, which averages 5% more phone calls by comparison.Again, this is based on a sample of 2,029 calls made with our AI-powered, web-based phone in the last 90 days.

The shortest wait on hold
We measured the shortest hold times to be on Tuesday.The longest wait in the queue on average occurs on Thursday, which is 312% longer than the minimum.As you can see, there is more fluctuation in hold time over the course of the week than there is in call volume.
In summation, the best day to call Agoda is Tuesday.It isn't the least busy day, but the fact that hold times are shortest combined with it being on the busy side tells us that Agoda staffs up on Tuesday to handle the higher call volume, and that makes it the best time to call.
Calling this number ran into some problems, as the customer service representative didn't seem to understand what I was saying and the call ran into technical difficulties. When I called, I was told that I needed to have a booking ID and provide it to get assistance. However, I discovered that this is actually optional, as this is a faux chokepoint that you can get past with some patience.
When I was asked to give my booking ID, I was asked twice before the system recognized my entries as invalid and put me through to a representative. Once I hit this step, I was quickly put through to a representative, who asked how she could help me.
I explained that I was new to using Agoda and wanted to know what deals were available on the site for my travel. She asked me for my booking ID, and I told her that I did not have one. I then stated again that I was a potential new customer using Agoda for the first time and wanted to know what deals were available and how I could find them.
The representative seemed initially confused and started to explain that Agoda was meant to provide deals to customers from around the world before she started to turn toward how I could find deals myself. As she started to go over some of the programs that Agoda had and could offer me, she suddenly stopped talking.
I couldn't find any kind of explanation for why she would have stopped talking until I checked my phone and discovered the the call had been lost during her explanation. At that point, I chose to wait to see if I would get a call back, as similar phone numbers often do call back by using the information that they'd gleaned from having you call in.
No such call ever came; I was simply expected to call back and start going through the process again if I wanted more help. As I didn't, I chose not to make another attempt to talk with someone.
Overall, I thought there were a couple of positives, notably the fact that the chokepoint could be worked around and that the representative seemed ready to offer help when asked. However, the fact that I got hung up on and didn't get any kind of call back was really surprising for me. I also wasn't impressed that the representative didn't seem to understand what I was saying until explaining multiple times.
Overall, I wouldn't use this number to get customer service; it seems that the website offers more information and assistance.

Corresponding with a customer service department by email may not be your first choice, especially if your issue is urgent or time-sensitive. But email is a nearly ubiquitous form of communication, and Agoda will reply our your email.
As a last, sometimes only, resort- Agoda customer service can be accessed through their website.
