National Express Southampton London recent customer reviews
It was a really good journey that was very on time and felt as comfortable as it could be.
Unreliable. Very late. NX 032 coach 8.15am from soton on 10th Jan 23. Driver arrived at 8.15am and set off 5 minutes after scheduled departure. Stopped at fleet halfway because de-mister not working making driving dangerous. Ended up 50 minutes late and I was late for my appointment. Ten passengers missed their connecting onward transport. This should be checked before using the coach for journey. Return journey same day 13:00 service from victoria was 30 late to depart. Many fellow passengers said they will not use national express again if there are alternative travel options.
The driver got lost after we left Southampton and it put us 1 hour behind. One of the passengers helped him find his way back on the correct route. I missed my connecting bus from Heath row to hammersmith and no one at bus station could direct me to a bus to hammersmith.
