On 6/26/24 we took a round trip ***-DC bus. I contacted Megabus multiple times, but get an automated email to the below which does not address the issue. "I write to discuss the disappointing experience my girlfriend and I experienced with your bus on a day trip from *** to **. Our bus was scheduled to leave *** at 6:00 a.m. and arrive in ** at 10:25 a.m. There was a scheduled stopover in *********, which we later learned was not just to pick up passengers, but also to pick up a new driver who was over an hour later. Accordingly, we did not get into DC until 11:30 a.m. This was unacceptable as we had 12 p.m. Tickets to get into the *********** that my girlfriend had secured for us a month earlier. We were forced to take a taxi to get there versus relying upon the metro. Our bus back from ** to *** was no better as we were scheduled to leave at 7:20 p.m. And arrive at 12:15 a.m.. However, the bus was once again delayed due to the fact we had to wait another hour for a driver to show up. On top of this, the air conditioning was not working! It was a day where the temperature was nearly 100 degrees and there were no signs of the heat retreating even at 7:20 p.m. Passengers getting off the bus warned us that there was no air conditioning, but with your bus driver an hour late we were left with little options but to take the bus. Your driver realizing everyone was miserable and hot, stopped off at a gas station so the passengers could get off the bus and get something to drink. Although this was a nice thing to do, it cost another 15 minutes delay. We were further delayed in *********, and we were once again forced to wait. The end result is that instead of getting in at 12:15 a.m. we arrived in ******** at 1:40 a.m. and missed the last bus of the night back to our apartment, which again resulted in another taxi. Our tickets costs $ ******. In light of our troubles and extra expenses we are requesting 50 % of the total amount in a refund.*************************"Business Response

I am rejecting this response because it is unclear to me if this credit also will be good for use in ****** which is where I reside. Is it possible to use this in ******? You also have not explained to me why my requested partial refund is unable to be accomplished. I renew my request for a partial refund. If this cannot be accomplished then I request the credit be able to be used on a sister company in *******
If you absolutely cannot do either option, e.g., transferring the credit so that I can use it on a ***************** of your company or providing the requested refund, then I will take the credit on the very remote chance that I come to the ** in the next year.Thank you.

I am a weekly frequent traveler of megabus usa between ********* and ************* mostly every Tuesday on the 8:40 am or the 10:40 am bus and there has not been one time that any of this bases been on time. 1 hour, two hours and 3 hours late every time. On June 25 I had to return home after my 8:40 am bus, was late over 3 + hours and I almost had a stroke waiting at the bus stop in a hot sunny day. I always make a round trip reservation returning the same day. This is not a traffic or weather situation like they keep lying to customers. Me and other customers have to make appointments, connections, flights, etc. And we have to cancel because megabus those not honor their schedules.Business Response

Date of dispute: 6/23/24
Amount paid: $43. 98
I purchased a ticket from megabus
Com for transportation from Houston to Austin at 1p.m today. I went to the metro park and ride in time to wait for the bus. This is my first time doing business with them and I thought their bus would have their business name on it clearly stating Megabus, just like the ********* and ******* buses. While I waited at the metro park and ride I saw several buses come and go which were white metro buses. I did not realize that their bus looks just like the metro buses. At 12.55 pm. I called their customer Service to ask for assistance since I was not seeing any megabus coming through. The representative told me that their bus is also white and that it already left. When I asked her for a refund so I can purchase another ticket for the next bus at 4.30p.m. she started yelling at me, belittling me and gaslighting me. Essentialy telling me it was my fault that the bus left me! When I asked to speak to a manager she told me there is no manager or supervisor available.
So they have taken my $43.98 and failed to provide me with the promised service due to their bus not having their business name on it. I am therefore requesting a full refund of my money that I paid to them. I'm a graduate student without a job so every penny counts at this time.

May 3,2024 Booking # AJ4V42Q-Purchased two tickets; $69.98- 3-9149-0602244-M862-1040-0RL-MAP $49.98; 9149-06224-M86R-1040-ORL-MAP On the date above I purchased two two tickets from ***** to *******. The customer service representative told us the terms and conditions BUT the customer service representative DID NOT SAY THERE WAS NO REFUND if we wanted to cancel she said that if we cancel we will get at least 50% of the refund returned and the customer also said we can cancel up to 15 min. if we had to. On Wednesday May 29,@5:54 p.m. first I spoke with the customer service representative for the cancellation she said there was no refund so i ask for a supervisor and she transferred me to a manager named Alien. The manager ask me for documentation on why I was cancelling my reservation and I said to him that its a personal reason and its NOT in your policy requiring a customer to provide documentation. The manager Alien was very disrespectful, rude and condescending with his responses. Hoping that this problem can be resolved I would like part of my refund returned to me because that is in their policy and that's what was told to us by the customer service representative.Sincerely,***********************Business Response

Hi, I hope this finds you well. I am reaching out about my two recent trips on Megabus. I have been told that Megabus is punctual and when I called prior to making the reservation I was informed that Megabus is going back and forth daily and has the schedule down really well. I travelled between ************* and *** and BOTH buses were OVER an hour late. Date: April 27, 2024 From: **********, **, ************* (1:20 PM)To: ************************************ Bus Stop - *********/*********************** (5:55 PM)Operated by: Megabus NE 34-7164-042724-M21R-1320-WAS-NEW Date: April 28, 2024 From: ************************************ Bus Stop - 34th St b/*********************** (3:00 PM)To: ***************************** (7:35 PM)Operated by: Megabus NE 76-4540-042824-M21R-1500-NEW-WAS After the first bus was late... I thought it must have just been an outlier, however, the next bus was late. The bus didn't even arrive at the pick-up location until 30 minutes past departure time. Then we also stopped at a gas station on the highway for another 30 minutes with no explanation. Also, the charger did NOT work on the trip back from *** to ***. Considering this is the only perk on this bus... it was extremely frustrating and of course the bus was packed. This is not acceptable. I missed trains and subways because the buses were so late and this cost me additional expenses. You need to be more transparent on length of trips. They also want to blame the delays on traffic. But in one weekend I was late on both trips and one of my friends took a trip yesterday and they were LATE. They are never on time. Thanks,***** .Business Response

I had a round trip purchased for October of 2023. Via email Megabus notified me that the return trip was cancelled and said the trip would be refunded. They only refunded the return trip. When I contacted them about why my full trip wasn't refunded, I was told because I made a change to the first part of my trip prior to their cancellation, which I had to pay a fee in order to change it, that I could only get a credit for the trip. I want a full refund. If any portion of my round trip was cancelled due to Megabus, obviously I should've been given the option to receive a full refund. I would like the monies for the first part of the trip that I didn't and couldn't take returned immediately. I have no desire to use the services of Megabus any further.Business Response

I was notified that I would receive a refund for the trip. I assumed that I would be refunded the entire round-trip funds. I purchased the trip at one time. Morally it doesn't make sense.

My first time taking Megabus and it was less than pleasant. I took the bus from ************* March 20th for 7:20. The bus was late causing a delay. I didnt arrive in ******** until about ***** after the scheduled time causing me to change my plans. Not to mention it was super cold. I attempted to exchange my departure ticket. At the end of the transaction it said that I had a $29.99 credit. That credit was not received and it looked like I had abandoned the trip. I called customer service and the agent was beyond rude and inconsiderate. My problem never got resolved. Although the cost is cheaper I will not recommend using this service.

My bus from ** to *** was supposed to depart on 12/31/2023 at ****. I arrived around **** per the guidelines to ensure Megabus had ample time to check tickets and load luggage before departure. It was 37 degrees outside. Our bus did not arrive in the station until ****. People were standing out in almost freezing temperatures for over an hour with few updates and no options for keeping warm. This is beyond unacceptable.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.
When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.
BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.
As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
