Greyhound Australia Sydney Coffs Harbour recent customer reviews

Well we got pulled over to the HGV check stop on Pacific hwy which was fine - officer did his legally required checks etc. Then we had to wait ages for a mechanic to arrive (which we had no communication from greyhound comms to say if he was actually coming or to give us an eta etc) to put in a bolt for an issue that wasn’t the original one. To compound this the USB charging point wasn’t working and the toilet on board was broken and so was out of order. The fire alarm randomly went off as well disturbing everyone onboard from sleep. Fast forward to my destination and instead of arriving at 5am, it’s not til 7.30am after making up over an hour of time on the road (kudos to the driver - forgot his name (wears a cowboy hat and got married in Scotland). He was very professional throughout in what must’ve been a really challenging situation and managed to make good time on the roads. In short, would I recommend greyhound again - probably not.
