Yesterday while waiting for the bus outside Wetherspoons I had judgie old drunks staring at me making me feel anxious. Today the same group are sitting in the same fucking place ffs 🤦‍♀️. So waiting in the cafe until the next bus - I really need a car 🥺 #transissues #Wetherspoons #chelmsford #firstbus

@jamesh We have a similar but different scandal brewing in #Norwich #Norfolk #England: #FirstBus are fining people who tap-in but don't take a paper ticket to hold for their journey, even if they show proof of payment and the tapped card; and people who are incorrectly allowed to board by showing a season ticket without ID to the driver, if they don't have the specific linked ID with them. Local MPs are involved and say it's difficult enough to get people to use buses without this hostility

#Norwich #FirstBus fining passengers who tap in and either bin or don't take their pointless paper confetti. This is not how to make #publictransit popular. Stupid stupid stupid #fail

Apparently, it may be something to do with loosing one bus to a low bridge last week. #FirstBus #Bath

Why do #FirstBus keep putting single-decker #buses on the X39 #Bristol to #Bath route at rush hour? It’s wedged solid on here tonight. 😱🚌

Just once, I'd like to get on a bus and have the service be an improvement. The lastest of the death by a thousand cuts: I am now supposed to use an app to get a student day ticket.

None of the five times I did this exact thing last week did a driver inform me there would be a change.

Your app does not improve my experience. Your app is for your benefit not mine.

There are many things I don't understand.

In our local news we've been told of a new bus service by First Bus.

https://www.firstbus.co.uk/leicester/news-and-service-updates/updates/service-changes-25-august

It's route 13W between Leicester City centre and a business park near us.
That's useful I thought - an alternative to Arriva for the city.
No!
The 13W is a once a day journey, in one direction only as shown on the service map.
But when I search for a timetable - there is no timetable.

Bizarre.

A warning/reminder to anyone who uses #FirstBus #Glasgow services - the 1 week and 4 week (monthly) passes are increasing in price by a substantial amount Tomorrow - Sunday 4th of Aug 2024.
If you have the financial ability you can buy passes at current price on the app and keep them in the wallet of app for up to 1 year before activation.
I have been able to buy 2 x 4week pass ahead of time.
Saying that my existing pass expires in 2 days so I am only really buying 1 extra one.

I have a feeling that the bus I caught back from the city centre has the new digital brakes... They were either full on (1) or full off (0).

The peak of Wi-Fi quality on Scottish public transport was a few years ago. There was a time when Wi-Fi on trains and buses was fairly reliable and now it almost never works... #Wi-Fi #PublicTransport #ScotRail #FirstBus

#cambridge is the destination, flight to #StanstedAirport , going is easy, will return in 2 days, hopefully in return Stansted will not be as crowded as before otherwise I will start buying fast track security thing 8 pounds and the bus from #Glasgow to airport is 16£ with return, sometimes I say this is better than lockdown sometimes I feel my age 😄 so many mixed feelings

#firstbus please invent beaming 😁

#FirstBus have done a great job with their app. Select a bus stop, bus route and it shows you expected arrival times, live bus position on the map. Walk out of your house, and straight on board. Big quality improvement! #publicTransport #bristol

Credit where it's due. #FirstBus is deleting my account because I haven't used it for just over a year.

Makes a change from random services I signed up to 12 years ago suddenly emailing me with an "important announcement" (which is nothing of the sort), or increasingly to let me know that they have hacked.

However, they lose points on centre-justifying the entire email.

Find it impressive that with each update to their app, First Bus manage to make it even worse.

It takes real effort and determination to consistently produce a worse product every new release.
