iLula Bus didn't pitch... Disgusting service

Dear Busbud team, I am writing to express my disappointment and anger with the service I received from your company. On December 17, 2023, I booked a bus from Bellville to King Williams Town, iLula Bus to be specific scheduled to depart at 19:35. However, the bus never arrived and I was left stranded at the bus stop. My aunt and niece ended up having to sleep at the bus stop overnight. This was an extremely uncomfortable and unsafe experience, and I feel that they should be compensated for the inconvenience caused. With the GBV at its peak in the country imagine a woman and a young lady having to sleep outside. I am requesting a full refund for the bus ticket, as well as an apology for the lack of communication and the unacceptable inconvenience caused. I hope that you will take steps to ensure that this situation does not happen again in the future.
