Diamond Bus Bewertungen 578

where i live, diamond is the only bus company. I got on the bus not 2 hours ago with no issues. trying to get home i’ve been told im not allowed on as i use a (class 2) mobility scooters. (for context- i have a disability that means i can no longer walk) i think its utterly disgusting that this company has decided that no mobility scooters are allowed on their service, even if they do meet the CPT code for mobility scooters on public transport. As a 21 year old girl, alone in the cold, dark and rain, I rang the customer service line as I was (as i’m sure you’ll agree) understandably upset as this has left me with no way home. The man I spoke to was very understanding and who kindly shared that he himself is also disabled, and I cannot fault him at all, he spoke to the CEO who has doubled down. Simon Dunn, I hope you are ashamed of yourself. I will be calling the HR department tomorrow to speak with Simon and make another complaint for this blatant violation of Equality rights.

It's a disgrace to other people to vape on the bus. It says on their website that it's prohibited, but no actions taken!! It doesn't even have a clear sign for no vaping on the bus! Why me and everyone else have to breath in those chemicals?!! They don't even care about kids! I will not leave it like that!

IVI BEEN HERE FOR 3 QUARTERS OF AN HOUR AND NO BUS. NO COMUNICATION MY FRIED GOT IGNORED IM NOT A HAPOY CHICKEN. 😡😡😡👎👎👎👎

Absolutely horrible. No communication to late buses and reasons, always with an excuse, when all the time the excuse is absolute rubbish.

Always late, have to book an appointment 2 hours later than I wanted to just to be safe with the buses.

Drives are rude and horrible most of the time and too expensive and unreliable.

Would not recommend. Half the time, it's faster walking, anywhere.

DO NOT USE!

Yet again this morning, the 7am number 9 from Burton to Ashby failed to turn up at Swad bus park. Whoever the driver is on a Wednesday morning must have better things to do than complete his route because this has happened several times now on Wednesday mornings. Luckily, I hopped onto the 29A Arriva so that I wasn't too late for work.

Diamond Bus are a great company to use. Friendly drivers and tidy buses. They are great value for money.

Excellent service and friendly drivers. Used everyday.

Diamond buses have consistently been late, rarely being punctual on Fridays in particular with me waiting from 3pm to 5pm in one instance. I’d use a competitor if I could.

Absolutely no consistency with when the bus that takes me home from school will arrive, and very often doesn’t come at all. Bearing in mind I rely on it to get home, as my parents are both working long after I am supposed to get home, it is terrible. My sister has given up getting it at all, so that shows how unreliable it is. Bus Drivers are rude and terrible at their jobs, and one has even crashed into a fence trying to turn around. This company is terrible, DO NOT USE DIAMOND BUSES!

The 125 West Midlands timetable is a work of fiction. The tracker App & Bus Shelter time bare no link to reality..It needs sorting. Customer focus does not feature as a priority...

Last month I was traveling through Worcester on the way to Kidderminster. I saw that the 303 bus from Worcester to Kidderminster was still in the bay but the only way I would catch it was to run across the bus area, I know one should not do this but I took care. The bus driver saw me coming from behind between the bus and the rails and started to drive the bus closer to the rails. Pressing me between the bus and the railings, an absolute criminal act. Then after tapping on the window to get the bus to stop, the driver gets out and starts screaming like some deranged maniac get to the back of the bus, blocking my way to safely get on the pedestrian area.
I complained to Diamond bus because I knew there was a video of the event. I contacted the supervisor the manager of Kidderminster and the area manager and received contradicting replies. They more or less interpreted the video to suit the protection of the driver. Put shortly, they believed a minor wrong which I admit I had committed by running across the bus area, indicates that the driver can behave as criminal and without care for the safety of that passenger and it is accepted that the driver screams like a madman in such circumstances. To be honest I do not think they even spoke to the driver. All in all from the driver to the administration a really bad company

I have a mobility problem and was rushing as fast as I could to get to the bus.Driver clearly saw (and heard!) me alongside the window trying to get on.I was a few feet from the door and he closed the door and drove off.
Utter bar-stool.This is why people don’t bother with buses anymore.

fyi i am a student and i have bline card to get a bit of money off my bus fairs, when i got on the bus the man was very rude to me and i showed him my bline card and he didnt take the money off, i also heard others on the bus say he was rude aswell.

Most awful service!!!!!!!!! 229 THE WORST BUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Can't get through to anyone in Derbyshire Customer Services and no response to my email query either.
I want to buy a pass for our grandson for the school routes but need to speak with someone!

I applied for a trainee bus driver's job with Diamond Bus and was sent to Bolton, had passed my module 1a,1b and module 2 prior to go there, drove for three days with an extremely rude and aggressive instructor who often used so bold swear words with screaming loud shouting, absolutely unpleasant and suffocating environment. Had to quit on day three....
Will never recommend to anyone who I have the slightest empathy for....

Buses always late and breaking down all the time.

Bus driver on 64 Wolverhampton wakely hill was bad tempered rude arrogant because I evidently dared to ask if I could get on his bus at the terminus in Wolverhampton a whole 6 minutes before departure on Wednesday evening.
If he can't bare to deal with the public best he gets another job quickly

Complaint About Driver of Bus 555 from Whiteley Village to London Heathrow Airport

I am writing to formally complain about the driver of bus number 555, which operates from Whiteley Village to London Heathrow Airport. The incident occurred today on 05/07/2024 at approximately 7:48 AM at the Harlington Corner bus stop.

The driver's ethnicity in question is an african male, appearing to be in his late 50s. Despite my clear attempts to signal the bus to stop, he did not come to the bus stop. There was a slight traffic delay, during which the bus had to wait. I approached the bus and asked the driver to open the door, explaining that I was running late for work and desperately needed to board. However, the driver refused and curtly told me to take the next bus.

This is not the first time I have encountered such behavior from this driver. On two previous occasions, he has also ignored my requests to board the bus. While I did not raise a complaint those times, this recurring issue has now compelled me to take action. As a result of this latest incident, I was delayed and reached work at 8:07 AM, leading to a formal warning from my employer for being late.

I am extremely disappointed and frustrated with this unprofessional and inconsiderate behavior. Reliable public transport is crucial for commuters like me who depend on timely service to meet work commitments. The driver's refusal to accommodate passengers at designated stops undermines the reliability of your service and causes significant inconvenience and distress.
