Bus trip from Lubbock to San Bernardino CA
The service was so bad and so unpredictable, the bus leaving out of Lubbock was delayed, so my granddaughters got on another bus as directed by Greyhound staff, only to have to sit and wait several hours, and then was never told that there was not going to be a bus that evening, that they would have to spend the night in the bus station until the morning...
Read full review of Greyhound LinesGreyhound stealing money from customers to line their pockets
I will make this my last long distance ride with greyhound. You guys are liars and thieves and I am done with you. When enough people stop riding your bus then maybe you will wake up and stop over booking and if a seat is available why should I pay extra. I purchased a ticket to Raleigh NC today September 29, 2023 asked for seat 12d and was told I had to...

Booking number [protected]. August 18, 2023 on my return trip from Resorts Atlantic City to Washington, DC it was discovered that another person (a man) was also assigned Seat 2B (which was my assigned seat). Therefore, the person assigned seat 2A had to find somewhere else to sit. This is not only ridiculous, but also dangerous; especially when we’re living...

Dear [Airline Representative Name], I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the compensation offered for the hours-long delay of my Greyhound bus ride from Orangeburg, SC to NYC on July 25, 2023 due to the police being called for an unruly passenger. I understand that bus delays can happen for unforeseen reasons, but I am disappointed that your...
Read full review of Greyhound LinesThe service & communication was not good
The week following August 7, 2023, I purchased a ticket for my uncle from SC to CA for over $300. We used GPS to find the bus bench at a barely marked gas station. It was the wrong stop. We didn't know Greyhound had many stops around the city; all barely marked as a bus stop. A bus did pull up, but they kept saying he couldn't ride it. We couldn't get a...

Customer service, experience and safety concerns
I would like to begin and say I have traveled with Greyhound before without problems; however, my experience this past weekend has made me not want to ever use their service ever again. My trip was from NYC to Atlantic City. I feel like that was an important detail. Firstly, the bus smelt like old urine. The other passengers and I complained to the service...

Read full review of Greyhound LinesThe condition of the bus, the lateness hour and half late, rudeness and driving
As five of us proceeded to get on bus the driver was very rude and I had my handicapped mother with me with whom I had a hard time getting on bus. We had just missed our train coming off of a cruise. i sat her down in the handicapped seat in the beginning of bus. She was mad about that and I explained that I had not been on a bus in years and did not know we had assigned seats.. We then sat in our assigned seats except for my mother who was terrified at her driving all over the lines..I was sick the whole time having to sit in the dirty filthy seats the bus number is 86033 coming out of New York at 12:30 on Sunday...Booking Number is3102292111. There were five of us that were apalled at the treatment and the condition of the bus
Desired outcome: Total reimbursement plus extra for the traumatization of such a horrific experience that we had to endure for five hours

Read full review of Greyhound LinesGreyhound bus rippoff money grab trap
On Aug14th I purchased a ticket.
In which the Bus driver decided to leave 30 mins early stranding me in the DMV.
I then encountered the greyhound staff.
who were rude and ignorant of all bus maps or routes. When asking for my refund after being in line for 1hr trying to find a better option then a 2 day trip.
THATS WHEN IT came clear to me to GREYHOUND IS A SCAM STAY AWAY. They refused to refund me my money instead a fake ticket was generated for me in their system and at AUG 14 at 5pm I was suppose to be on my new bus when i emailed and confirmed a refund is what i want. And without my consent After contact about a full refund. I was reissued a bus ticket whilest I was sourcing and being helped by a real traveling company.
Not a hack. They stole my money and have me a fake ticket.
To be honest i feel as if they have a big connection to a lot of missing personas no real tracking for seats and whos getting on very easy for traffickers and kidnappers . which is why they hours or more during PM and if you notice any of the grey hound area drop offs are known for underage prostitution and solicting very scary.
Desired outcome: I ended up flying south west I also had a medical emergency. They were great southwest airlines. Greyhound os denying they can give me my money back.
For two roundtrip tickets purchased on the same date with same destination.
I purchased the said tickets on July 3, 2023. Reason for the two purchases: I didn't know that you could purchase seats until I completed the purchase of the initial ticket. I read the frame that reads cancelation and cancel the ticket but I couldn't find how to complete it. I reordered a second ticket and filled in the section for the seats. They were billed to my PayPal Account. The ticket with the seats was used, and the other ticket was not because of the same date and destination. I checked my Pay Pal Account and saw the two charges: The traveled one was Booking number [protected], seat 2D Date of Travel: Monday, July 3, 2023, and return Date Monday, July 10, 2023. I contacted Greyhound via chat on their website and asked for a refund of the unused ticket they told me that I purchased a non-refundable ticket and I replied that I didn't know that because I didn't see that initially. I wanted to speak with an agency and it was difficult to reach one, I finally found one and they told me the same thing and told me they could issue me a Voucher, and in addition, if I had purchased a Refundable ticket, then I could get a refund for the second ticket. I told them that I never read that before making the purchase, If I had known that there was an option before purchasing the ticket then I could make a decision but they said they could not refund me and the ticket was good for a year and they could give me a Voucher to use for another trip. I explained to the agent that I was a missionary pastor in Jamaica and couldn't travel at any time. I saw that I wasn't getting through, therefore I contacted FlixBus Lines that are a part of Greyhound, they were very nice with their response, and told me after checking since I purchased the ticket through Greyhound, they would be the company to reissue the refund. They gave me an 800 number to call with options, I selected option 6, A first-time rider, the agent told me I couldn't get my money back because their policy doesn't refund nonrefundable tickets and I could get a Voucher to use within 15 minutes before travel. I told her that I didn't read that policy when I was purchasing the ticket(s) I only saw those policies after the purchasing and learned about the refundable tickets too. To me the policies are misleading. I told the agent I only want the refund of $127.55 because I need the money and don't have money to give away. That is my Complaint/grievance and was hoping for some leniency, they said that's their policy, thus I'm out of a refund. I'm begging help if possible. Thank you.
Desired outcome: I desire a refund of $127.55 for the second ticket.Thank you.
Ticket exchange/refund policy
I purchased a greyhound ticket back in late November 2022, which I was originally going to use on December 1, 2022. Because of weather conditions, I was unable to use the ticket at that time. When I tried to get a refund, or credit to use toward another ticket at a future date, I was told that they couldn't do anything then, that I would have to wait until I was ready to buy another ticket that I was going to use, and they would then give me credit from that ticket that I could use toward a new ticket. I was also told that they would do this for me so long as my new travel date was less than a year after the date when I was originally going to be traveling.
Then, when I tried to get credit for the original (unused) ticket to use toward a new ticket for August 8, 2023 (less than a year later), I was told that as of January 1, 2023, the policy had been changed, that I was required to get credit for my unused ticket at 15 minutes before the departure time on the ticket. I had no way of knowing that the policy would be changed, let alone changed retroactively, but they told me that that was too bad, that was now the policy. Also, they said that they had no record of my ever having purchased a greyhound bus ticket, that all records of ticket purchases before January 1, 2023 had been purged from their system. This, after being told that the confirmation number I have them was wrong, and being bounced back and forth several times between Greyhound and Jefferson Lines.
What company purges their records at the same time they change their exchange and refund policy? I am now out about $73, because they did a switch and purge on me, with no warning.
Desired outcome: Refund the money that I paid for the original ticket

Read full review of Greyhound LinesUnauthorized credit
I booked a reservation July 25th at 11:pm. Then later I canceled it. It was from South Bend IN to San Antonio TX. They gave me a credit voucher for 146.54 dollars. I was going to use the voucher but, I learned that it was given to some one else. Some one from Peoria IL to Chicago IL. I would like to receive another voucher or my money of 146.00 dollars.
Thank you,
