Megabus US Madison Oshkosh recent customer reviews

My ticket said the bus would depart from the Wisconsin historical society. The confirmation email said the bus would depart from the Wisconsin historical society and had a link to the location of the Wisconsin historical society. I arrived at the Wisconsin historical society bus stop fifteen minutes before the scheduled departure time. After ten minutes, the bus had not arrived, and I checked the confirmation email to make sure I was at the right place. It still said that I would depart from the Wisconsin historical society. I then checked my ticket, which said that the bus would depart from the Wisconsin historical society, but showed a map with a pin at the bus stop on lake street near Dayton. Seeing no one else waiting for a bus, I decided this must be the actual location and made my way over there, but by the time I arrived the bus was gone.
