The bus never arrived at the stop, and left from New Orleans for Baton Rouge without me. I had to get another bus 3 hrs later. No money was refunded either

I bought I ticket for 5:50pm but when I arrived at the station at 5:45pm I told there was no bus till 9:45pm that 4 hrs after the time I was suppose to depart.
I did not get a sorry for the delay or anything I like that. Whe I start complaining of the service the guy just said I can put u on the 8pm bus.
This 20222 how come Greyhound cannot communicate with its customers regarding Leahy delays.
This kind of service will prevent me from using Greyhound ever again.
