Megabus Nottingham Newcastle upon Tyne recent customer reviews

Chose a seat away from the toilet area. There was a bad toilet odour sometimes very strong and pungent. The bus. Was otherwise clean and comfortable. The drivers pleasant and the journey on time.

Brenda W.

August 25, 2024

Loved the bus and the drivers were all nice. However, the customer services are very very poor. Firstly, buses were delayed with no proper communication to the customer, something a functional app can fix. I even had to miss a bus because the customer service provider gave me a wrong information. Also had to wait for hours in the cold.
