According to customer reviews, there is widespread dissatisfaction with the service provided by Intercape buses. Customers mention experiencing very bad service and rude bus drivers. They express disappointment in not receiving the value for their money and do not recommend using Intercape's services in the future. Additionally, one customer mentions being traumatized due to a constantly running fan on board.

Intercape Budgetliner Express Bloemfontein Kroonstad recent customer reviews

The service was professional and satisfactory. However I feel if Intercape can re-introduce the allocation of seat numbers for passengers it can help as struggling for a seat can be frustrating when one's bus ticket lacks a seat number. Kindly consider this. Many thanks.

There was nothing to enjoy just very bad service and a rude bus driver i paid for an intercape bus and i did not even get on one! The intercape driver couldn't even give a explanation as to why i had to get onto a bus that was not worth the money i paid for i am very dissatisfied and would not reccomend anyone in the future to use the service of intercape busses

The company does not care about the customers hygiene and the covid regulations are not adhered to as the staff did not care if passengers are wearing masks or not, and the bus was full to capacity

Greyhound Bloemfontein Kroonstad recent customer reviews

Greyhound bus was 2hours late in total, 4 passengers and I did not have space so some people were moved to Citiliner, they moved myself and others to Citiliner and greyhound only took Gauteng passengers. Drivers did not communicate well and Citiliner driver forgot to drop me off at Kroonstad and now my mom had to fetch me at N1 with other passengers
