I recently traveled with Eagle Liner and was thoroughly disappointed with the service. The drivers were unprofessional and consistently displayed a rude attitude, seeming to be angry most of the time.
The bus was delayed by 2 hours, and to make matters worse, the staff failed to check tickets properly, allowing a passenger without a ticket to board. This individual was extremely rude and swore at other passengers.
Furthermore, the drivers showed no patience and didn't bother to verify passenger names, frequently mispronouncing surnames.
To add insult to injury, Eagle Liner lacks a functional customer service system. They don't provide a contact email, making it impossible to reach out with concerns or feedback.
