Horrible, the light by my seat would not switch off . The seats are tiny and very uncomfortable. The bus was 6 minutes late however resulted in me getting to my destination 1 hour 15 minutes later which was frustrating. This means the eta was wrong from the onset

Terrible experience. I was traveling from Midrand for the first time, with my kids. I stood on the other side of the stop, not knowing the pickup zone. From 6am-ish I was there, and missed the 7am bus because of location. When I called Intercity to ask to catch the next bus with my tickets, they said they can't prove I was early. They left me stranded with two children in a place I didn't know.
