Flixbus Exeter Bristol recent customer reviews

Budbus is a terrible service provider, I ordered a bus to the airport but it turned out it was going to the bus station, I tried to change the bus but nothing was available on their app, although I knew there definitely was a bus, when I cancelled the bus I got a measly voucher and lost two thirds of my fare, I am not impressed at all and will not use this service again

Bus was very late - Understand some things cant be helped but was given very late notice about the delay despite it being well over an hour. No sense of urgency afterwards.

The driver was fine, helpful. Good seats. Only 1 stop between Exeter and Bristol Airport, to change drivers.

There was no information at the departure point and it was unclear where buses were going or how long they were delayed. I missed my bus in the chaos and didn't get to see my son, or use my return ticket. I felt very sad and stupid.

Bought my ticket and it said it was leaving from Exeter bus station it wasn’t until I asked someone at the station about it that they told me that it actually left from sidwell street in Exeter so had to run to the right stop to get onto the bus, luckily the bus hadn’t left yet and the driver was very helpful
