The bus arrived late on departure resulting in reaching destination 1 hour 20 minutes later than expected which affected pick up transport negative

They left me behind at a garage, and customer service didn't even know who was driving the bus. I was stranded and had to find my way home. Then my luggage is gone. The helpline stopped answering my calls, it's been over 10hrs, no answer on the helpline, I have no means of getting my luggage back. I can safely say, I shall never ever take a bus trip ever again.

Our bus had a breakdown in Howick, then on arrival in Durban we had to wait for a Shuttle to take us to Amanzimtoti at about 21H30
