Classist Refund Policy
Greyhound has the most nonsensical policy on trip cancellations in the entire industry. You have to pay more to be able to cancel your ticket and get a refund?! What parasite comes up with this?! Not only that, but if you try to reschedule, you have to pay a $20 fee even if the ticket turns out to be cheaper. This is absolutely ridiculous, NEVER buy a greyhound ticket if you can help it. There are way more affordable, understanding companies.
Desired outcome: At least give me back the difference between the tickets
Misunderstanding
My name is miss wilson, today 10/14/22 I was coming from ny ny 34st penn station to baltimore at 2:45am, when I arrived he luggage part was open, then the driver gets off the bus and states I can't take you, I asked why I have a ticket, he proceed to close the luggage door while waving me away with his hand at the same time, so I started crying and my son asked him why she can't get on the bus it's seats right here empty cause you can see the empty seats, she has her ticket if the bus was full the system won't of sold her the ticket, he proceed to talk loud and a few of the worker came over and could see the empty seat them selfs, the customers on the bus were confused as well cause their were still seats available, my son is asking him why he acting like that, they both were talking loud when the driver hit him and pushed him, my son never touched him trying to catch his balance his fingers hit the drivers glasses. When the police arrives the driver tried to say that my son assaulted him, then the passengers that were on the bus came off to tell the police that my son did not touch him, that the driver was the aggressor.
If my son would of been the aggressor he would of been locked up, they did not do anything to me or my son because we did nothing and all the passengers know we did nothing. I then asked the lady that approached me I assumed she was the manager or supervisor, what should I do about getting on another bus, she said that she going to get me on another bus I said ok. I then go to the upper level to get a ticket for a later time, the lady told me to come back at 630a. When I returned to her at 630am she stated to me why I didn't tell her about the situation that happened earlier and that the supervisor said that I can't ride greyhound for me to go pay again at peterpan and gave me a card to call for a refund.
Greyhound is a very huge company that has been around for years I always travel with this company and never encounter anything like this. I do know that if their were no seats on the bus the system would of told me sold out. I felt embarrassed and ashamed, I would never use greyhound again, I would like to have a refund thank you

Didn’t travel very far, lost my luggage
So travels for Miami to Ocala the only stop we had that we had to get off the bus was in Orlando. I didn’t think to check my bag because we were getting right back on the same bus so I get to Ocalla. My bag is not where I put it on the bus in Miami now they’re saying they have to locate my bag got an email a couple days ago saying they have not been able to locate my bag but they’re going to continue to look for it now. What is the purpose of putting a tag on the bag if it’s just gonna get taken by somebody else anyways my whole life was in that bag. The only clothes that I own were in that bag I will never be right in Greyhound again and it messed up thing is if you can’t get a hold of anybody to take care of you and to help you it’s like they don’t even care.
Desired outcome: I would like to find my stuff that’s what I would like. I’d like to get my bag back with all my clothes in it.
Bus driver conduct
Today October 7 2022 I Jeff Smith was riding bus no. 86750.. The bus was scheduled to be at Elizabeth City N.C. my departure location at 8:45 a.m.. The bus wasn't at the pick up location until sometime after 9:00 a m.
After boarding the bus due to health and body functions I had too relieve myself and had to have a bowel movement.. After using the restroom the bus driver embarrassed me in front of all the passengers and scolded me that I shouldn't utilize the the toilet to drop crap .. That I just left Elizabeth City.. This is horrible. I am so embarrassed before the public.. I have to use the bathroom now and I can not use it because the bus driver locked the door. I am very distraught and am in pain emotionally mentally and physically...
Desired outcome: File a civil complaint for the tortious behavior of the greyhound bus driver. Seeking compensation for the embarrassing event and compensation for the inconveniences of not being able to utilize the restroom
My husband died
My husband and I rode the bus 06/23 to 06/28. The bus took off with everything we owned in Amarillo, Tx. I asked the manager to stop the bus but he refused. Our meds, my purse, my laptop, etc all were on the bus plus our two bags under the bus. The blood thinner my husband needed was on the bus. He died as a result of being without it. I still haven't received our bags and it has been impossible to speak to a person.
Desired outcome: I want to be financially compensated now. At first, we just wanted our bags. But this has become so much more

Read full review of Greyhound LinesBus behind schedule
On Sept 8,2022 @11:45am, I loaded the bus from Columbia, SC heading to Dickinson, North Dakota. This included several connecting bus rides. After stopping in Charleston, West Virgina and then proceeding to Parkersburg, West Virginia, I was told that my next connecting bus ride had already departed. Hopeful, I waited 18 hours at the bus station in Parkersburg for the next bus BACK to Charleston where I was told there would be another connecting bus up north that would arrive to North Dakota by 6:45pm. I was able to make it to Chicago, Illinois at 2:15 pm on Saturday. But when I arrived in Chicago, hoping to catch my connecting bus to Dickinson, North Dakota, I was told that I was given INCORRECT INFORMATION and the bus was not expected to arrive until 9:45 pm on that Sunday. I needed to start training for a job on that Sunday at 7pm and if I did not report, I would have lost my job. I ended up having to book a taxi to the airport and taking a flight costing $532 to North Dakota.
I am requesting a refund for my bus ticket. I did not get to my destination at the scheduled time, and it was through NO fault of my own. Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Desired outcome: My refund please

I booked a trip from detroit to knoxville Tennessee for September 6th. We just got to Cincinnati and they said no driver until 9/7 @11:30 am!
This is unacceptable service! I can’t be stuck somewhere i no nooone and have no place to go! I have to be in knoxville for work. Now because of poor service I won’t make it! I need a refund or some accommodations for this! Unacceptable!
Desired outcome: Partial refund or some type of accommodations
Not having a bus driver in time of scheduled trip
My greyhound bus arrived in Chicago at 6:15 am on 8/14/22. After 4.5 hours of a 4 3/4 hour layover, they announced they do not have a bus driver. They advised if anyone’s destination was Milwaukee, they could take another bus. That was my next stop but not my destination of Madison WI. They did not give a time they would have a bus driver for my original scheduled bus. So I took the Milwaukee bus, as it was closer to my destination. My sister was in the hospital and I needed to keep my scheduled arrival time to care for her child that night. I feel I did not get what I paid for…a full trip.
Desired outcome: Reimbursement for my expenses from Milwaukee to Madison
Security for passengers onboard
Avner N Sawyer, 1959 Dale Evans Way, Kingman AZ, 86409. I Left Phoenix, AZ At 9.3p am, July 15th, 2022, going to Kingman AZ thru Flagstaff. We stopped at Approx. 11.00 am outside of Flagstaff at a bus stop were the driver left the bus untinned with no type of security for his passengers. no camara to see what going on. Durin this time I was asleep minding my own business. when i was woke up with a large force in my face. This crazy man was in the isle punching like hell. I had been punched in the nose breaking it, and I was bleeding all over the place. Was afraid he may have a gun. This man was crazy. I have never seen this man before. I am 87 years old, traveling alone. I love traveling by bus, cannot travel anymore by myself. He [censored] arrested in Flagstaff for assault and was transported to jail where he is awaiting trial. I believe the bus line was in neglect and should be held accountable for their actions in this matter. They should step up and give something to offset for damages receive by the person assaulted. nose buster had to be reset, mental problems dreams, pain, and things that will never go away. You need better safety measures on your busses then you will have more seniors traveling with you. We need to feel saft when traveling with you. I hope I can get 50.000 to some of this to go away. At 87 my years are imited.
Desired outcome: Please do your duty
Bus never showed
15 kids were traveling from LA, CA to Phoenix. AZ. They purchased tickets to travel Aug 7th at 8:30am. The bus never came. Greyhound told them a bus will take them at 2:30p. They waited and the bus did not show up either. They requested a refund and were told the tickets were non-refundable. How can that be? They were there and Greyhound failed to provide the service. The tickets were paid in cash, at $80 each for $1,200 total.
Tessie at [protected]
Desired outcome: Refund of all 15 tickets at a minimum.
Elderly abuse perpetrated by greyhound bus driver
On 8/20th, the bus driver demanded my 88y/o mother who is vision impaired get off the bus after my 82y/o father had stepped off the bus to get her something to drink. Her English is very limited thus unable to speak for speak for herself. The bus driver then proceeded to leave while taking my parent’s luggage. They were left stranded in Baltimore, MD.
Desired outcome: I would like that bus driver fired and charged with elderly abuse.
Luggage stolen
Im reaching out to as a last resort to assist in the search for everything I own that was lost/stolen by greyhound. When I say everything I mean all my clothes, shoes, sentimental items, jewelry the list goes on. I have researched and have been torched by greyhound as not one employee will help me locate my belongings! No one will answer the phone. This has been since December 7 2021. I am at the point with more than 50 emails, To all department I am at the point of hiring a lawyer and have all contacting all the news channels in my state and more stars if necessary. My whole life has vanished!
My trip began: 12/06/2021 Fort Lauderdale

IN WHICH I WAS SITTING IN THE FRONT SEAT.
I asked several time after he announced that we can leave carry on baggage on the bus. Be back here 1:45 so we can reload. He watched me exit the bus leaving my carry on baggage in the seat I sat in.
He later told me they clean the bus and remove all belongings…and give us a new bus! The proof continues to build up.
I have been treated inhuman by greyhound employees
I have been hung up on you customer service agents
I have begged and pleaded with all customer service agents

Trip from Wenatchee Washington to Seattle Washington
We had our Suisse exchange student from 30 years ago come visit us recently with her 2 boys. They left today on the Greyhound bus in Wenatchee. First off, the bus driver WAS SO rude to us! The boys jumped on the bus, there was no one around, and found their seats. She freaked out (after coming out awhile later) and told their mother and I that they needed to get out immediately while she looked at their tickets. No big deal, they got out. She was extremely rude and looked at their tickets and didn't say anything except, "That man was before you he gets to get on first". Then, when they stopped in Leavenworth, her youngest son was cold, they don't have A/C in Switzerland. She got off and the baggage door was open so she opened his suitcase and grabbed his sweater. The bus driver told her she could not do that. She said her son was cold and she was getting his sweater. She said she would call the police and my Suisse daughter told her to do it. The police came and she (buss driver) told them that her boys were not being good. The police walked onto the bus for confirmation and everyone told her they were fine and the driver was lying! The police told the bus driver that they are tourists and getting on a plane tomorrow so she had to take them. She made it clear to ALL of the people on the bus that they were late because of her. She finally made it to Seattle but will never ever use this service again!
Desired outcome: Reimburse her 3 tickets ASAP!!!
