Has anyone here had a bad experience? I am fuming right now. They have stuck me with a ticket I can't use. I bought one that had to have a specific connecter at a certain time, and because the buses always run so late I can never get it. I've had to pay to change my ticket to another day 3 times, but no one cares that when I get down the line I won't be able to hook up. (I have two separate tickets for a long trip) One person tells me it'll be okay, but when you get there, somebody else tells you they were wrong and you're stuck. I've had so many bad experiences I'm afraid it will happen again so I don't ride when it's not a sure thing. Because of this they won't refund or trade my ticket, but I can't use it. I've been stranded in some awful situations, and I'm very wary.
I will try my best never to ride the bus again, but is there anything I can do now? No one on the phone listens or cares, and all ticket clerks contradict each other. I feel like I've wasted my money. No wonder my brother prefers hitching!
I know there's nothing you can do for me now, but if any of you have a horror story that happened to you or someone you know, please tell. I'm going to write an article and hopefull draw attention to this problem. My suspicion is because most of the riders are poor, elderly or foreign, they think they won't or can't fight back. I want to change that. Their system is a total disgrace.
