Crowley still having contacts in Hell after Armageddidnt is such a logical concept
He is the Serpent of Eden. He has Satan knows how many commendations (some rightfully so, most of them not so much but alas don't judge a hard working sod)
That doesn't come with a considerable amount of, at the very least, respect from some demons. Friends? No. Not friends. Demons don't have friends (looking at you Hastur and Ligur. You homosexuals. I know what you are). But respect? Cmon. Even in the most vicious corporations the underlings have some amount of respect for the guy with a reputation and awards in his cabinet. And Crowley not only has A Title that he upholds for 6000 years now, but his reputation claims he invented something as vicious as the Spanish Inquisition
That, my friends, calls for respect
Those people that play Crowley as a nobody demon easily ignored by the masses before the whole Holy Water thing clearly haven't watched the show properly
What type of invisible low-key powerless demon would not only have A Fucking Title but two Dukes of Hell constantly on his heels? And what type of nobody demon would be tasked with triggering the fucking Armageddon?
I tell you what type: none. Because Crowley is not a nobody. Even before the trial he was already known by the masses
He was the original tempter. All the other demons specialized in temptation came AFTER him. He is the OG. The reference
So, yes. It's easy to imagine Crowley has contacts in Hell. Now, not only due to respect but also fear because of the holy water debacle. Who, amongst the nobody demons, doesn't want to be in the good graces of the Big Bad Accomplished Serpent of Eden that has Rebelled Against Hell and Can Survive Holy Water?
It's only logical. Law of survival
Is Crowley full of bullshit and most his accomplishments are lies and rubbish? And he is very much not immune to holy water? Yes. But they don't know! And that's the whole point
Bet that Crowley, low-key as paranoid as he is, spent the last 4 years after the Apocadoesnt with one ear on Earth and the other on Hell to make sure no waves were rippling that would threaten him and, specially, his angel
Call me crazy but that man has a whole secret network of underlings that feed him information on Hell's movements
