Dangerous driving from bus driver
Why is a bus driver from Yardley Wood bus depot still driving dangerously to and from Yardley Wood bus depot at dangerously high speeds along Daisy Farm Road and surrounding rounds in the Warstock area.
Driver of grey coloured Ford Focus with rally graphics and a very loud exhaust.
This car has been seen being parked outside Yardley Wood bus depot with the driver wearing bus uniform walking into Yardley Wood bus depot.
As already reviewed police have been contacted.

A complete waste of space
The most appalling bus service I have ever witnessed. They will change the bus times without updating the time tables on the bus stops. They are almost impossible to get into contact with. I have left multiple complaints asking for a response and received none. They changed how my bus pass worked half way between the month, meaning that I wasted half of my £65 bus pass, which my complaint was also ignored by. It is by far the most disorganised and dishonest bus company I have ever come across, I have been made late to work on countless occasions due to the bus not turning up, I have witnessed the busses running red lights. Overall it is the single worst company I have ever had the displeasure of using. If you are able to, use an alternative.

I was impressed by the bus driver for bus 9, who, at 08:56 on Broad Street heading towards Hagley Road, took the time to stop and walk out to inquire if a blind person at the stop was waiting to board. His thoughtful actions deserve praise.

Not happy with the response from west midlands buses
X12 route west avenue bus stop.there are road works at west avenue bus stop with tempory bus stop put in place and for the past couple of weeks buses have been stopping here as usual then all of a sudden without notice the buses have been diverted and bi pass these stops when it is still safe for traffic cars lorries to continue to use this part of the road only found out when my elderly mother came to visit and got put off a stop she did not recognise and then she called me.there is no information signage on the buses or word of mouth from driver that the buses are no longer stopping art these stops also there are no signage at the stops they are no longer in use this means passengers are waiting at these stops and buses are not turning up.I decided to talk to national express customer services and they were no help and didn't seem to care they told me travel west midlands were responsible for closing stops and it was up to me as a passenger to bring it to their attention you would have thought west midlands buses would be communicating this when they bring these diversions in place and not to leave it to their passengers after they have been let down.i also questioned the diversion when lorries and cars are still using this part of the road which she did not have an answer
This not a good way of treating their passengers and it shows a lack of care not happy

Awful customer service centre
Awful customer service centre. The woman was so unhelpful when my 16 year old daughter phoned to say she lost her bus pass. She asked for a bar code for the week because she has work every day and doesn't want the 1.5 hour walk home late at night. She said it's not her problem and she will get fired if she gives her a bar code. I pay £1440 a year on bus passes for my children to travel, I'm appalled by how they get treated by staff, including bus drivers when their passes fail to scan due to a fault with them

West Midlands Travel 89 Route
I have been telling wmt on the extremely bad service on the 89 bus when it was West Brom to Bham city and then when it changed from West Brom to Bearwood. Drivers change the route if there is too much traffic, bus is never on time and usually average late is 20-30 mins and then at times doesn’t even show up. I have seen elderly, the disabled/wheelchairs users/on crutches, children and ppl going to work waiting for a bus which is late for r never turns up. To be honest they are not even worth 1star and should be the option for minus stars. So far today I have been waiting on this bus for the last 1.5 hours from Bearwood to Smethwick and now it’s showing another 30 mins to arrive.

Wouldn't give these clowns 1 star
Wouldn't give these clowns 1 star. Just missed 95 bus as it went 2 minutes early... another 30 minutes wait !! Even though the gormless driver could see people wanting the bus he decided not to wait and pulled
off anyway. If they can be so punctual on the night time why is the service so crap during the day ???? THIS 95 BUS SERVICE NEEDS SACKING AND GET ANOTHER COMPANY TO RUN THE SERVICE !!!
IF YOU COMPLAIN JUST EXPECT THE USUAL RUBBISH AND EXPECT NOTHING TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. I know cus I have made numerous complaints.
PASSENGERS PAY EXTORTIONATE FARES FOR USELESS SERVICE !!

Yesterday the 27 bus didn't turn up again. So I had to get a taxi to work as I would have been late as I work in the community with people with special needs. Most of the buses are missing or running late. It gets me mad when they put the bus fares up for such a bad service.

Absolutely disgusting service
Absolutely disgusting service, buses not turning up, taking bus service off without notice, I didn't want to give 1 star. over 3 hours to get home on a journey that takes 30 minutes, no communication from the company, they put you on hold whenever you ring, can't even say would go to a different company, there's no options
Update on their reply;
This was a planned occurrence, the services are totally unreliable frequently not turning up, as for looking on the website for delays, disruptions you follow your bus on the app to supposedly 2 minutes away then disappears from app. I had to pay for a taxi to get to work as well as buying a day saver totally unacceptable

Absolutely shambolic
Absolutely shambolic. Bought a 4 week adult ticket online. Swift card not updating on swift collector app, so re-directed to download tfwm app. That app won't accept my swift card (turns out the cards starting with number 633597 0112 are issued by this National express west mids company - even the tfwm website says this and gives a separate number for contacting national express WM).
I proceed to ring 0121 254 7272 multiple times and when I picked the options for swift card (it was 122) the phone just cuts off.
But I have a full order confirmation on my emails when I purchased the ticket, so I proceed to use this as proof. The driver responses are astounding. Two of them clicked some buttons on their machine, and I proceeded no problems.
But the rest... "that's not valid" "you don't want to pay?" "try scanning your card on the machine... its expired, you can't travel" because my card will not update, BUT I HAVE EMAIL CONFIRMATION WITH ACCOUNT NUMBER AND ORDER NUMBER AND MY NAME AND THE COMPANY AND THAT I'VE PAID £60!
Then you go to the FAQs on their website..... they tell you to download the tfwm app despite the cards beginning with 633597 0112 not working on it..........
Incredibly frustrating!

Hi Ab,
I am sorry to hear of your issues with your Swift card. You can top up your card one of two ways, this can be done via the collector machines or via the TfWM app as follows:
Collecting via the app:
If you have a smartphone you can activate the top-up on your card from home using the app.
Open the app,
Hold your Swift card to the back of your phone,
Follow the on-screen instructions.
Collecting via a collector machine:
Most Swift collector machines are at bus shelters and bus stations. To activate the top-up on your card:
Hold your card to the reader or rest it in the metal slot,
Follow the on-screen instructions.
It can take up to 15 minutes for your payment to be available to activate on the machine. Make sure you’ve left enough time after you’ve made your online payment.
If you are still having difficulty collecting your product please contact customer services on 0121 254 7272 option 1 between 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday.
Alternatively, please use the following form https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfrJq9yQOP45cnMyHK4_nEgOAOcXeS-Il4JiXL8Wftk5WtJWQ/viewform.
