Despite very nice previous experiences, on Wednesday September 4th I was very disapointed. After waiting about an hour after the scheduled time of departure (14.20) from the Central Bus Station on Heathrow, I was told at the Information desk that according to the updated schedule of Megabus, our bus was cancelled and the next one is at 18.40! Due to time contraints in Bristol it was impossible for me and my wife to wait such a long time. Finally we had to buy tickets to another company.

Bus was late. Over 2 hours. Driver stopped for 45 minutes at a motorway station for a break. Then at Swindon for a very long time. Bus arrived at destination with 4 hours delay. I didn’t enjoy a single bit about the journey

I am extremely upset with my experience as not only was the bus 1hr late, the driver stopped unnecessarily to have a cigarette which made me late for my connecting journey. When I questioned the driver he just laughed and continued smoking. This is not how I would treat my customers
