I booked a ticket for 12:20 but left at 14:45. Each and every bus that came around 12:00 was full to the brim. I mean if we book according to the times that are convenient to us shouldn’t there be space availability.
Also had to stop along the way to swap buses because of a sudden change of route! I found that very unprofessional
According to customer reviews, there are several complaints about the bus service being consistently late and even not arriving at all. Some customers have expressed frustration with the lack of communication regarding delays.

Firstly the bus arrives late 30 minutes and the pick up point was not nice.
The bus no 616 was boarded and it was full to capacity. However I booked a Mainliner and this was not. The toilets were filthy. The entire trip smelled disgusting. The passenger next to me was drinking alcohol. The seats were worn and uncomfortable. I had difficulty believing that this was the same Intercape I loved for so many years? This was my worst experience with your service.

I didn't even travel.I need help with lodging a complaint. Where and how do I do that?
The bus was fine but it was late with an hour I had to call the call center to check if it's still coming and then when it arrived had to wait another 30 minutes for the passenger to come back from buying food and refreshment in short the bus that was supposed to leave at 10h50 it ended up leaving at 12h31

I didn't enjoy anything because the bus never came!! After an hour of it been late i called to find out where is the bus!! To my surprise i was told the bus was the, guess what they transferred from big sky to intercape and they did not communicate that!!! I was arrogantly told I've forfeited my ticket. I'm still angry about the service i received overall. Very very very poor

Felt safe up until the assistant started a long conversation with the driver, which I think distracted the driver. I also saw a cockroach on the surface. Overall not a bad experience.

There was confusion as to which bus i should be on so I missed the correct one and had to make other travel arrangements . Not one of the drivers of the three busses I approached checked my ticket to see if I was supposed to travel with them.
