On 6/22/25, the morning bus which was to pick up at 6:************** to ************** was a NO SHOW. This caused extreme stress given flight time schedules. I am demanding an immediate refund for the round trip value for tickets I have used with Coach USA. This is unacceptableBusiness Response

Hello and thank you for contacting Coach USA.
Upon reviewing this passengers claim, we are unfortunately unable to offer any compensation regarding this matter. Our records indicate that they were able to successfully use their ticket as it shows the ticket was scanned at 6:04am on the date in question.
We apologize for any inconvenience.

I had a reservation for bus travel from Brookfield to Chicago O’Hare Airport. The bus arrived 20 minutes late and then broke down at the Milwaukee stop. Passengers, including myself, were given no clear information about when a replacement bus would arrive. To make matters worse, the driver informed us that the next scheduled Coach USA bus had been cancelled due to a lack of available drivers.
This experience was not only frustrating but extremely stressful, as I had an international flight to catch. Given the uncertainty and delays, I had no choice but to arrange alternative transportation via **** in order to reach the airport on time. This incurred an unexpected and significant expense.
This situation was entirely avoidable and reflects poorly on the reliability of Coach USA service. I am not requesting compensation for the stress caused by this event, but I am seeking full reimbursement for both the unused bus ticket and the **** fare, totaling $211.68.
Coach USA’s response so far—a credit for the bus ticket only—is both disappointing and dismissive. It fails to acknowledge the full extent of the inconvenience and costs imposed on the customer. This type of response undermines trust and reflects a lack of accountability.
After reviewing other customer complaints, it appears that this type of incident is unfortunately not uncommon with Coach USA.
I request a full refund of $211.68.
Thank you.Business Response

I booked a ticket for a bus from Milwaukee Intermodal Station to Milwaukee International Airport for 3:40pm on 10/28/2024. I arrived at the Intermodal Station around 3:25pm to ensure I did not miss the bus, I even double checked both the application and the website and both indicated that the next bus would be at 3:40pm. By 3:55pm no bus had arrived and so I called customer service. They informed me that the 3:40pm bus had been cancelled (without notification) and that the next bus would be at 5:40pm. Unfortunately, I had a 5:21pm flight meaning that I had no other option but to book an Uber (which cost me an additional $32 on top of the $13 I had already paid for the bus that never came). CoachUSA tries to get out of responsibility by claiming I can use the ticket anytime over the next 365 days, but that does not help for individuals like myself who are visiting and need to catch one very specific bus.
CoachUSA not only did not provide the service they were paid to provide but they are now also refusing to refund for the service they failed to provide. I would like to request both a refund and a credit for the additional travel costs I had to incur as a result of the cancellation of this bus (which, again, was done without any notice at all to customers who had purchased tickets for that bus).Business Response

The complaint is I have to pay for a child ticket for a 3 month old. For one a one way ticket is $9.90 which is absurd. I commute to the city for work and childcare. Its understood that a child that sits in a seat pays the price but how dare you child an under the age of 2. This now will cause an economic hardship on a few parents. There are not many parents that travel with an infant so complaining to Coach USA makes no sense. Due to this I may need to find another job just for a 3 month old commute. No other transportation company charges for a child under 2. You will lose a lot of business due to the inequality of greediness for money on infants.Business Response

1. I went on a trip to *** from aboard and I am handicap.2. Last Friday (Aug 30), I ride from ********* (Port of Authority) to ***************, because Coach USA is the only carrier driving there.3. I bought two round trip tickets from the company's counter at the terminal for $103.50 ($51.75 each). 4. I inquired about disabled discount, but been told there is no discount. Due to the fact the bus departed soon after, I trusted the employee to provide me accurate information, and not misleading a tourist.5. To my surprise, the company sells the same ticket I bought for $39 online, and $19.50 for handicap. The employee didn't mentioned a thing about this!6. I've contacted the company prior submitting this complaint, but being informed that all sales are final and as such they won't do a price adjustment.7. I am very disappointed to learn the company exercises such misleading practices, and wronging disabled tourists.Business Response

I bought a ten trip ticket for my weekly commute to work ilin 8/11/2024. I got sick with ***** and was not able to go to work for a week. I now have 4 trips left over that will expire on Saturday 8/31/2024 and the company now says that they cannot extend the time for me to use the tickets. The company says it is their policy to not extend the use of unused tickets. This is unacceptable and a very deceiving practice. I am not looking for a refund but to be able to get use of the tickets purchased. They clearly state that unused tickets are good for upto a year but now the types of tickets I purchased are not. I need a resolution. Please help me.Business Response
