Megabus Portsmouth Manchester recent customer reviews
Cramped, smelt, dirty bus that looks as if the interior hadn’t been thoroughly cleaned in months (between the seats/seatbelt clip etc).

The service from Portsmouth ran out of fuel Whilst on the motorway which was extremely upsetting and unacceptable. We were subsequently and by chance offered a lift to Manchester by a passing third party company namely the National express. As a consequence I arrived in Manchester Victoria station some 2.5 hrs late, at arround 1820 hrs plus I could not get off at Manchester Airport which was my intended destination. Thetefore in Opinion the Megabus company have failed to provide the service I had paid for and as a result caused a lot of anxiety and undue stress to myself and my host in Manchester.
