FlixBus Richmond New York City recent customer reviews
I was in the last broken seat by the bathroom #14B and didn't even have a button to lye back. For $105 one way from Richmond Virginia to New York city. I was ripped off.
1 out of 5 stars
Frank M.
It was comfortable and somewhat clean. However, my ticket never indicated stopping and given all the stops, I ended up 2 hours later than I expected at the airport. Then the bus driver would not allow us to get our luggage until everyone was off the bus, when explained I am in a rush he walked away. I do not appreciate the lack of communication from flixbus about the delays or the bus drivers lack of urgency after all the delays and the bus breaking down.

There is never an outlet. And the buses don’t accommodate new phone charger cables. WiFi never works. Ever.

Additionally, customers mention that they were not informed about the reasons for the delay and found the price of the service to be too high.

Ronnette J.
I was waiting at the station for 2 hours and no one announced why there was a delay. It way too overpriced for a service like that. I am extremely dissatisfied with the trip and would recommend to absolutely no one

Great driver, good service.
The bus broke down, that was why we were late to destination - 4 hours
Customers appreciate the quiet and punctual service, with quick arrivals. However, some mention discomfort due to lack of breaks and cold temperatures on the bus. Despite easy boarding and fast delivery to destinations by drivers, there are complaints about leaks caused by rain entering the bus through a damaged area. Additionally, difficulties in communication with customer service have been reported regarding specific pickup locations at Walmart parking lots.

The driver was literally yelling at the phone amost all the journey, at least for 5 hours, talking in a extremely agressive way. Also the bathroom has a terrible smell. Each time someone opened it, it seemed like we could pass out from it.
2 out of 5 stars
Anne G.
The driver safely delivered us to our destination in fast time. Boarding was easy. However, the r add in caused the bus to leak in various locations, particularly, next to where I was seated. It was also difficult, well impossible for the customer service agent to tell me exactly what part of the Walmart parking lot I should be at to wait for the bus.
