I have never had an issue. Working with them over the phone was a good experience. Had the tires shipped standard ups to my local performance shop thinking it would take 3-5 business days, got a call the next day at lunch that they were in.

Luke and I have been emailing back and forth on set of Michelins for a couple of weeks, yesterday we talked on the phone and today I ordered the tires.

No problems here they have been very responsive.

I've called them several times and got right through. Could have just been very lucky I guess. I agree with e-mailing or calling Luke or just keep trying with the one number that was working for you.
