Greyhound Lines Mexico San Antonio Detroit recent customer reviews
What did I enjoy? Not a gahdam thing. First off, they didn't let me double check if my luggage was on the bus since i was transferring busses in Dallas, Tx. The bus driver didn't let me check and assured me that he already transferred my luggage to the my other bus. When i reached my next destination in Nashville, TN where i needed to transfer again... my luggage was NOWHERE to be found and was not on the bus like i was told it was. I then reported this and was told i can pick it up in Dallas however when I got arrived there several days later, they said that the Salvation Army just came and picked it up a few minutes ago. However when i called Salvation Army they said they don't pick up stuff from Greyhound. SO i have no idea still where my luggage could be or how to get it.
