I want to share my experience with the service, as I was let down by their dynamic pricing and overall service quality. We had booked a return trip between two cities but realized shortly before departure that the date was incorrect. When I attempted to change the date about 24 hours prior, the initial price difference was €119. Since this was quite a significant amount, I took a moment to consider it. When I reopened the app shortly after, the price had jumped to €133. Concerned it might increase further, I booked right away. Out of curiosity, I continued to monitor the prices for the same bus, and here’s what I noted: 10:06 – €133, 10:09 – €148.76, 10:11 – €151.76, 10:15 – €151.76 (an increase of nearly 28% in just 9 minutes), and 14:56 – €144.76 (possibly after an algorithm reset). Such rapid price changes seem excessive and unfair, pressuring customers to book immediately. Additionally, the reliability of the service was lacking. The bus to one city was about an hour and a half late, with no apology or explanation provided. This lack of accountability was both surprising and frustrating. What complicates matters for customers is the limited alternatives available. On several routes, the service appears to have a near-monopoly, leaving travelers with few options. It’s surprising that other platforms do not cover these routes. In the absence of real choices, these pricing practices and service standards feel even more unjust. While the service may offer convenience, this experience reveals significant issues with their pricing.
