### 5/5 — Bus timetable

*2026-08-12, version 120*

Good app if you get stuck an need to know where your bus is

### 1/5 — Go Ahead buses in Allerton

*2026-06-19, version 117*

The buses are always late. Ever since they took over first buses who where on time they have never shown up on time. They are always about 20 mins late which affects the time I get to work.

### 1/5 — Price gouging?

*2026-05-03, version 113*

Put the price of their flexi 5 tickets up from £17 to £24! Get that times are hard but a £7 price rise, Really?
Would rather walk from now on!

### 1/5 — NOT! A Bus Service

*2026-01-15, version 107*

I’ve waited many many many times now for buses which don’t arrive & here I am again left cold & frustrated. This isn’t a service it’s a  punishment!!! Which I don’t deserve. 53 bus stuck in traffic, due to Gas works… so where is the service for people needing to get around???… 14:34hrs NOT ARRIVED & 1539hrs NOT ARRIVED!!!
Now I’m too cold & will take this further… missed trains & missed appointments, where does it all end? If there was snow on the ground I might have frozen to death at 69 going on 70yrs old…. Not good, Not acceptable.

### 5/5 — Y12

*2025-11-11, version 103*

Always friendly staff , buses clean and tidy and so far never had a brake down !!

### 5/5 — On the buses

*2025-09-05, version 94*

Usually on time sometimes a little late not their fault. Can be crowded at busy times of year. Drivers are usually very helpful with enquiries and we always thank them. Buses are always clean

### 1/5 — Don’t waste your money!

*2025-08-24, version 94*

I have purchased tickets on the app, went to use them and it took forever for the tickets to load. Once activated, the app signed me out and restricted my access, making me unable to use my ticket. I explained this to the bus driver and he said it was tough and that we would have to purchase another ticket. It was bus 893 at 3pm on the 24th August 2025. Rubbish app and terribly rude bus driver. I said I would request a refund and he said I would be unable to. Why?? Nonsense.

### 1/5 — X46/47 Service Data

*2025-08-09, version 94*

The information in the App is very difficult to find and not at all user friendly. I wanted to check times in the service from York to Hull but was unable to obtain this. Why cannot a search feature be included?

### 2/5 — Doesn’t work well

*2025-06-24, version 94*

Doesn’t even let me track the buses as when I try to, it takes me off the app despite the amount of storage I have, cleared lots of storage and it’s still the same

### 1/5 — Exasperating

*2025-01-26, version 82*

Could this app be more frustrating?
I doubt it.
