Was an ok journey but the heating on the bus was really hot. They couldn't turn the heating down due to other passengers being cold, mainly older folk which I didn't mind
4 out of 5 stars

Only problem was the air condition was freezing the whole way. The staff did switch it off after a while but the coach was so cold.
Customers generally had a positive experience with the bus service, mentioning punctuality and helpful drivers. Some minor concerns were raised about long journey times, social distancing measures, and cleanliness. Overall, customers would recommend using the bus again for future travel needs.
Megabus Glasgow Preston recent customer reviews
I had booked 2 first class seats from Glasgow to Preston only to be put on a single coach which has seen better days. My partner and myself couldn't even sit together as bus was full time we got on it. The toilet was dirty with no toilet roll. Was really disappointing as we were looking forward to our trip.
