I heard that visas are opened almost a day before departure, but this is chaos - we go as tourists, we bring them our money - I have a good job, I'm not going to stay in Greece - I would have known that such problems - I would go to Turkey !I need to plan everything, what actions can I take? because I will lose both money and vacation days

honestly, no! since childhood, I dreamed of visiting Greece, and I collected enough money, I wanted to please my teenage son with a beach vacation + interesting excursions, the travel agency assured me that we had a new consul in Mariupol and now everything is simpler - but we are also not some kind of cattle, to wipe our feet about us for no reason, we will rest where they are waiting for us! and do what???

Wait and hope that the visa will still be opened for you and you will be able to enjoy your vacation.

I had the same kipish in 2010. Visas were issued a day or two before departure (Kyiv). Moreover, sometimes, according to the tour operator, managers brought passports directly to the airport. This was my last experience of cooperation with firms. It is very common when a visa is for departure or for departure. When I apply myself, I get visas without any problems, within the deadlines that are indicated on the consulate website. I go early and know exactly when. And when your documents were submitted by the company, you will not know. It often happens that they take the documents, then they lie with them for a month and are served back to back to the flight. But the Greeks are just those who screw up with the deadlines and can also, having received documents, not issue visas for a long time. One thing is true - in the conditions of Ukraine, this, unfortunately, is the norm for travel agencies.
With self-filing, delays are rather an exception.

If it’s not a secret what kind of MOT, or it’s a travel agent. They brought me Schengen back to back, but it was in May last year, there were a lot of holidays, maybe this happened in your case. And if you collected such a pile of documents and accepted them without question, then the visa must be. But still as much as 9 days, calm down!

You will be given a visa, no options. The Greeks are generally considering the abolition of visas for Russians, and possibly for Ukrainians, even at the cost of leaving the Schengen and the Eurozone. For them, our tourists are more important than handouts from Germany and other Schengen friends.
As for the rest, I support hatinka - only self-applying for a visa.
