Megabus Reading Leeds recent customer reviews
My trip from Reading to Leeds was good but I am not happy because one of my suitcase was missing. When I tried to explain to the driver who took over from the previous driver that brought us to Leeds, he became very hostile to me and told me that he is not interested in what I was saying and rudely drove off. This happened in the presence of one of his colleagues who was with him in the bus. I felt very bad especially for my missing suitcase and the manner I was treated by the driver.
