Greyhound Australia Gold Coast Coffs Harbour recent customer reviews

I missed the bus because departure time was changed from ticket I printed out. I need to find a new ticket asap otherwise it will impact all my travel plans. I later found out that the bus company sent email to inform at midnight !! ( 8 hrs before the new departure time). I surely didn’t have time to check my email in that morning as i was busy packing and managed to get everything ready and arrive on time. Something should be improved, If the bus company should have sent email earlier, I would have time to check and do not miss the bus.
