The personel of Intercape needs customer service training. They are awfully rude. Not every passanger is a person that has no job or does not have a destination to go to. When I approach a person, I expect them to lesson to my question, answer it and if there is any additional questions, tend to it.

The bus was supposed to arrive at 05:45 and I had to find other means of transportation to PE from Grahamstown because I'd miss my flight. When I called the intercape office I was told he bus would only arrive after 4 hours. I'm highly upset and when I asked to cancel my ticket, I was told I can't which made me even more upset.

The bus left early. In spite of me being at the pick up 15 minutes early I still missed the bus. I have been phoning numerous numbers that either does not exist or go straight to voicemail. Even my email can't be delivered 😖.

The Driver was very friendly. Pleasant trip. The bus was 50 minutes late. It would be nice if passengers could be notified, instead of panicking whether the bus is coming or not. I had an appointment in PE from Grahamstown & made an appropriate time management booking. I had to call customer care.
