It was messed up that I showed up to one station in Chicago only to be dropped off 5 min away to wait an hour for my bus to Davenport. Didn’t make any sense

Me and several passengers waited for a bus that i was told had cancelled. I had to take a cab ride to a different location just to get to my destination. I was out of more money because of greyhound lack of communication with their customers
