The information on the ticket was misleading and incomplete. I waited at the wrong place for the bus from Evergreen, AL and was unable to get to Jacksonville. I bought two tickets (one from Evergreen, AL to Jacksonville, FL and the other from Jacksonville, FL to West Palm Beach, FL) and was unable to use them

Horribly poorly organized, and that is why every bus is late. I waited for over 3 hours in Orlando to board my bus. Crazy. That is why I will never ride the bus again.
