Se estiver atrasado ou tiver hora pra chegar, nao indico. ### 1/5 — Nunca tem carro *2025-01-30* Sempre que preciso usar nunca tem carro disponível. E das duas vezes que consegui pedir saindo do shopping benfica eles não param passaram direto pro sinal. 2 x fizeram a mesma coisa. Deveria ter uma opção pra reclamar dentro do app quando o motorista faz isso. Pq eles cancelam dizendo que eu não estava lá sendo que passam direto sem parar pro passageiro. ### 1/5 — CONSTRANGIMENTO *2025-01-28* Chamei um carro aí quando embarquei o motorista perguntou se eu estava com o cartão cadastrado, eu falei que não pois era o velho e estou em outra empresa. Resumindo, tive que descer no lugar perigoso, eu pedir pois o ônibus tava demorando muito e cancelaram a corrida. RECOMENDO NÃO BAIXAR, ALÉM DE COBRAR UM ABSURDO, FAZEM ISSO COM VOCÊ. ### 2/5 — Triste *2025-01-27* Diz que tenho área só que quando peço mostra que não estar na área de cobertura ### 4/5 — Área de circulação dos veículos *2025-01-22* Poderia aumentar a área de cobertura da circulação dos veículos ### 4/5 — Bom mas não passa pela coronel de Carvalho nem leste oeste em certos lugares acessíveis *2025-01-19* Falta passar por certos lugares acessíveis ### 1/5 — Vamos usar o cérebro ? *2025-01-18* Quer dizer que se eu decidir mudar de número vocês não permitem que eu acesse o cadastro ? por que não dão nenhuma outra forma de entrar ou alterar o cadastro de uma conta que eu não tenho mais acesso sem o chip antigo? Contratem Qa’s péssima experiência ! ### 3/5 — Valor alto *2025-01-09* Antes o valor era atrativo, mais barato do que carro de app. Não vale mais a pena, já que o valor está igual ou maior que Uber, não embarca e não desembarca na porta, não podemos contar com a previsão de tempo e é compartilhado. Já o carro de app tem todos essas vantagens e é o mesmo valor ### 1/5 — Já foi melhor *2024-12-23* Eu só consigo entrar na minha conta, fica informado que o cpf não é válido. ### 1/5 — Péssimo *2024-12-17* Deu 20h da noite não tem mais veículo disponível, e olha que estou saindo da aldeota para Parquelandia. ## Frequently asked questions about TopBus ### How do I use TopBus?
