Yes.

I think the scale has worsened this, slightly, already. It was great 
initially.

Opening a ticket via web/email after hours seems to get clueless 
first-level support.

Calling during U.S. business hours has been fine, but I'm generally only 
doing that to get a ticket moving after it has stalled.

If I have an issue that needs to be escalated to 
engineering/development, I've had very good to great experiences with 
the engineers/developers in India after hours. It's a bad day if I need 
them, but it's great to have them.

FWIW, I haven't tried calling after hours.

On the other hand, the sales engineers have been great!
