The bus didn't keep to time yet we specified booking time due to reasons. We were later moved from one bus to the other and lost certain items because of the transfers made whilst traveling by your bus. The treatment was very 👎 bad

I am so disappointe by APMWC. They did not come to Park station. And only informed me at 17:06 that I mustat Engen garage in Mudrand by 17:00. Which I did at an extra cost but there was no APM bus there. By the time I reached the place.
Iam so upset because they are not picking the phoe too.
Frustrated because that was the last money I have so I couldn't travel. Because of them. Also my credits are gone because I used them to buy their ticket.

It leaked water from the emergency exit directly on me the whole trip. Your inspector was nonchalant and ill-equipped to deal with passenger queries.

The bus drivers we very nice and receptive. But there was a short chubby guy whom I don't know whether he is the owner or not, but judging from his rudeness you'd swear he is the owner.
I was also not satisfied with the condition of the bus.
