I was left behind at Tebay service farm stranded when the bus stopped, I went to get bottle water and stuf so before I got back the bus as left and I put a call to the customer service immediately, the customer service said I need to find my way that there is nothing they can do. I spent over £140 to get to Bristol yesterday

I had a ticket from Glasgow to Bristol with connection at Birmingham and the first leg of my journey was delayed by more than 35 minutes, so I missed my second bus. Luckily, the staff at the Coach station was very helpful and they put me on the next available bus, so I only lost about an hour and fifteen minutes.
