Greyhound Charleston Charlotte recent customer reviews
I was VERY DISAPPOINTED by the bus driver of barons bus. The driver was very RUDE and disrespectiful. He forced me to through away my food that I had bought when the bus stopped for a 14 minutes break. He told me I had 4 minutes to eat my food or through it away. I informed him that I had would eat the food later on, but he told me that I could not enter the bus with the food and locked me out. However, to my suprise he allowed some other passengers get into the bus with food while am standing by the door. He selectively picked on me.He acted very unprofessional epecially given his age. I was very frustrated, angry and hungry the entire time I rode in the bus! I can not wish any passanger to be subjected to that harsh and dehumaning selective treatment as I was!
