National Express Southampton Nottingham recent customer reviews

Today was my second time of travelling by National Express coaches from Southampton to Nottingham. In both cases, Southampton to London were OK. However, London to Nottingham delayed by over 1hr in both cases. It's most annoying and unacceptable that no one gives reasons for the delay. In view of my experience, I would only use your bus in case there are no options.

Very good service and due to difficult conditions in London due to charity bike road, driver still got us in a couple of minute earlier by using alternate route.
