The front desk staff was new, i got time to checkout until 2 pm but it did not mean, i would not take your bus to pattaya. I can now clearly understand what happened as clear from your team email- too many vans and buses come, i was awaiting for a bus in lobby since 12.45, your driver came and talked to front desk new hire, front desk guy was new hire, not trained, just conveyed to your driver, i will checkout at 2 and based on that information, your driver left conveying i need to come to airport. Front desk should have called me or announce my name in lobby but he did not, nor, your driver called my name nor had any pickup playcard in hand to display and i also did not inform frontdesk that i am here waiting, and the front desk new hire did not share this me, as could cause inconvenience to him, as he would have understood what he did by just mentioning to your driver, that i would checkout at 2 pm when its just my hotel extended checkout time. i kept waiting, and then after 2 pm sometime, i contacted the front desk and conceirge for help, and in this entire slipup, i missed your bus and had paid, then paid double in taxi. Hope you now have entire gist of scenario, so take an appropriate call to refund my booking amount back to my card- all equally at fault😊 Hereon - u cld send driver with placard, and announce name too in lobby, as a feedback so this improves your service too! Thanks, Sandeep

It was a smooth trip but it's not pleasing to be shouted at by a ticket collector. That's what happened at Ekkamai bus station. A very rude and aggressive ticket collector.
