Customers generally had a positive experience with the service, although some mentioned that their bags were thrown on top of each other in the trailer. However, there were also complaints about booking an 8pm bus and being moved to a 10pm bus three days before departure, which inconvenienced them greatly.
Intercape service is great, but I wasn't satisfied with booking an 8pm bus only to be moved 3 days before departure to a 10pm bus, that has greatly inconvenienced me.
