Intercape - Unprofessional and slow response

Resolved
3/10

I logged a complaint of a shuttle driver that left me and another passenger behind. We both came early. I approached him twice to ask if that was the bus we were to connect with to get to my bus that's leaving for Port Elizabeth. Both times he said NO my bus is still arriving. He didn't bother to check on the list. Then just to later find out after he left by another shuttle driver that I was supposed to get on it. I then issued my bus. I phoned customer care. They said they were going to investigate the situation and still decide if they would refund my ticket. Just to hear that driver says he left nobody behind when even the other shuttle driver can testify to it that saw everything.

The worst service ever!!!! Their standard is appalling!

I just got frustrated having to follow up myself on the status of my complaint otherwise I would be waiting hours for a response [using my own airtime] thereafter they would call back and give a long awaited response still pending investigation and never giving a precise answer on estimated time they would come to a resolve. During the investigation of the issue, they seemed to have believed the driver's version of events knowing fully that another passenger was left behind. If the other Intercape shuttle driver wasn't present that day to witness what his colleague did, then I'm pretty sure they would have went on the word of that driver that lied to get out of taking responsibility for not checking his list as I asked twice if he is sure of which he said yes and still not checking his passenger list. Thus, as result made me miss my ride home. I basically had to insist I needed to get home as I had my children waiting for me, because at some point the operator expected I pay so long for a new ticket and after they investigated that they would DECIDE if they would award me a refund? So I got worked up already at the lack of empathy and her response as if I got money just readily available to clean up Their mess. Their quick response to refund me only happened a few minutes after I placed my complaint here on this platform. So I cannot say my experience was a good one at all. Because I had to call back and forth to hear how far they were with investigations and having had a unpleasant experience seeing How far intercape's standard dropped drastically through the years. How it came off to me is that should I have not complained here, they wouldn't have given me and the other passenger her our refund.

This complaint was considered resolved.
