If you want customer service then this probably isn’t for you. If you want someone that will get you to where you want to go, then this will do. Arrived 3 hours later than stated on original booking. However with no real lateness, that must be how long it takes. Coach was comfortable and managed to sleep.

VERY unprofessional. Starting with the reception, the woman was super annoyed at every question, while giving each passenger different directives (check in, no check in, super confusing), she didn't give us information on the whole procss either, you had to figure it out for yourself, and very overcomplicated. We had to download a different App MIDWAY to keep checking in, which wasn't functional either. Completely ridiculous. Also, the driver was super unprofessional, screaming into his phone all way long, singing terribly, smoking under the smoking prohibited sign... playing on his phone, stearing with his elbows, very terrifying ... NEVER choose this when you have ANY other options

The bus itself was good, very comfy. However, the bus driver was unclear about where we were stopping, I know he cannot help the traffic but we arrived a lot later than usual and were dropped far from the location it stated on 12go. It would have been nice to have been told that we were no longer stopping at the planned stop, as we then had to get a 40 minute taxi quite late at night.

Everyone I interacted with in the company seemed to hate their lives and hate their customers. The driver specially seemed easily annoyed by the simplest questions. Plus the fact that the bus was one hour late

It was an 8 hour trip instead of 5 hours. We had no toilet rest and there was no toilet on the bus. We had to download an app before we could enter the bus. And pay an extra fee of 3 RM to get the ticket downloaded on the app. Although there was no change described before, we had to change from a van to the big bus.
