I received a text at 9am telling that the bus would not be picking up in Ngcobo but instead Cofimvaba. They could’ve communicated this earlier and according to the bus drivers, they don’t do pick ups in Ngcobo at all. My question is why would they provide the Ngcobo option if they know they don’t pick up there? I had to spend more that I had planned due to their incompetence.
Another issue is that they overbooked the bus and we had to park for +- 60 min for them to resolve the overload issue.
Other than that, the ride was pleasant and the drivers were good communicators.
