I entered the date I needed to go, then after paying it was incorrect and I only got a partial reimbursement for correcting it.

Price change while booking

I was disappointed when my while confirming payment, an extra $20 was added to my trip cost.
This should not happen or be allowed to happen.
It smells of false advertising and manipulation. And the total cost was more than the $20 increase, because of added taxes

No customer service available

I had to wait in cold at 1 am and they cancelled the bus . Coincidentally , internet doesn’t work at this location so I ended up going to a gas station to book my ride for which I had to wait for another hour , so this whole mess was because of lack of communication from intercity or Busbud I would not recommend anyone to use their service.
