Terrible experience. I was traveling from Midrand for the first time, with my kids. I stood on the other side of the stop, not knowing the pickup zone. From 6am-ish I was there, and missed the 7am bus because of location. When I called Intercity to ask to catch the next bus with my tickets, they said they can't prove I was early. They left me stranded with two children in a place I didn't know.

The trip was scheduled for 11:50 from Midrand Engen Big bear to Harrismith (FS), I arrived at Big Bear at 11:50 and found 2 buses and asked if they were headed to Harrismith, and I was advised that that wasn't the case. The only Intercity bus that passed through Big bear did be so around 11:00am, which was almost an hour earlier to my scheduled departure.
I then tried to call the customer care, eventually WhatsApped. I was informed that the bus had already left and was in Park station. I then requested that the booking be moved to tomorrow morning, I'm yet to be replied to.
I feel hard done by the bus company.
Users have reported a positive experience with the bus service, highlighting punctuality and friendly staff. The driving was comfortable, and in one instance where there was an issue with the lights, it was promptly resolved by replacing the bus. Overall, passengers appreciated arriving on time or even slightly ahead of schedule.
Horrible, the light by my seat would not switch off . The seats are tiny and very uncomfortable. The bus was 6 minutes late however resulted in me getting to my destination 1 hour 15 minutes later which was frustrating. This means the eta was wrong from the onset
