The driving and travel were good. The drivers do drive with care are considerate. I also appreciate the fact that we were informed in a time when Intercape was behind schedule. When I booked for the coach, I was under the impression that the terminal is at the Caltex garage and there are waiting rooms with ablutions just like the other Intercape terminals. It was extremely cold and drizzling yesterday. My shock to find out that the shelter is a bus stop that accommodates less than 6 people. No ablutions. Some passengers went to the Caltex garage and were told there were none. Three passengers relieved themselves behind the bus shelter. One of them was so much under pressure and needed to do a Number 2, in full view of passersby. It was so disrespectful and just plain inconsiderate of passengers. Intercape must do better on this one as people choose Intercape because of the service they give. This one is a No No.

Bus no. 06 left before the departure time. I had to hire a vehicle to drive almost 80KM to catch up with the bus. On arrival, I questioned the driver about the time of departure and was verbally assaulted in response. I took pictures of the people who were swearing at me and it got worse, I got physically assaulted.
I called their customer support number and as soon as they had my complaint, they dropped the phone and never picked it up again. The driver threatened that I would not board the bus unless I deleted the pictures. I have never seen such service in my life. The drivers acted like gangsters and victimized me Infront of my 9 year old daughter. I will be taking legal action against them. I have proof and witnesses.
