So they are 8 hours behind us. So would that would be 04:00 in the morning. So if you were lucky you would not get a reply till around 17:00 (assuming they responded straight away @ 09:00
So to be fair, you did not give them much time to reply to you. And the palpay timing will have been in the middle of their working day.
