Amazon's CS is great = Amazon's phone/human CS is great.

Don't even bother with anything else.
Perhaps the quality of email support depends on the nature of the problem (technical vs. non-technical).

I have only dealt with Amazon's CS via email or online (to return items) and have never had a problem.

My one experience with Amazon UK's CS was also positive. Earlier this year, one order divided into two shipments never arrived. After waiting well past the estimated arrival date, I sent an email. A replacement order was set up within a few hours.

On the other hand, if I were to have a "technical" problem, such as a problem with a Kindle Reader I think I would probably call. Seems as if that would be faster and more efficient.
