I for the first time travelled to Penang by bus, the company from whom I bought the ticket was Konstorium Bus Co, My bus was schdule to leave K L at 1.30pm, but I got the bus only at 2.30pm and it was not a Konstorium Bus but from a different Co, It was a mad house at the bus terminal as no one new what time which bus we were supposed to go, firstly trying to get to the bus was it self a a battle, the persons working were rude and non curtious, the bitter experience last saturday I had, I will not forget for a while.i will not reccomend it to anyone. After travel of two hours you would like to have hot drink(tea or coffe) the guy stops near a place where you have few wending machines and some of it do not work. You got to educate the drivers that foreginers do travel not to take any one for granted. It will tarnish the image of Malaysia, and this year your govt is making a big hype about travel Malaysia internationaly but feedback like these will not bring any good results for the country because of these kinds of irresponsible behaviour of a few persons.
whats yr phone number in KL office, need to book tickets to spore, any online booking?
Refer to Farook’s mail, I,m 100% agreed!
I, myself is a Malaysian, and I have the same bad experience with Konsortium Bus Co. I bought a 9.00pm Konsortium Bus ticket from KL to JB last month (Aug 2007) 1st ) They changed the bus to ‘Gunung Raya Exspres’, and even changed the bus ticket. 2nd) Waited until 10pm, when I checked with the Chinese staff / appointed agent and he said “It is none of my business†3rd ) After some little arguments with the mentioned staff, his Malay colleague dare to tell me “Lain kali, jangan naik bus, guna kereta sendiri lah†(next time don’t take a bus and use your own car lah).
I was extremely upset with their unprofessional manners, I swear I will never use Konsortium Bus and will never ever recommend it to my friends and relatives.
i’d look to purchase tickets from Konsortium, but with these comments. I’d rather not. Poor customer service T_T.
It’s actually my parents who were travelling on Konsortium from Penang to Kuala Lumpur. The staff gave the wrong information and ask my parent to wait at Lane no.4 but later they changed to Lane 7 without informing the passenger. They claimed that they shouted a few times from Lane 7 mentioning “bus to KL” but imaging my parent(67 and 77 years old) were at Lane 4 and with the noise at the terminal, they can’t hear that so they missed the bus. My dad went to the counter after waited for about 1 hour but they said that the bus left already and asked him to buy another ticket. They advised my parent to walk around the terminal to look for their bus and not advise that they just wait at one terminal. It’ was so dangerous for us to walk around with buses moving at the terminal. I have write in to complaint to the head office but they can’t do anything. Lousy services.
KONSORTIUM is nato (NO ACTION, TALK ONLY)
my bus was late this afternoon for one hour.
It was not a red konsortium.
It was another bus from LMPS.
DONT TAKE KONSORTIUM BUS to SIngapore.
BETTER choice might be GRASSLAND or MAJU LINER.
Quantity instead of Quality matters for KONSORTIUM.
They really cannot make it.
Correct! I have took KONSORTIUM in KL for few times, because i need to arrived at Beach Road Singapore and their schedule was suit me as i wan to take night bus(although most of the time need to WAIT minimum 15mins, max half hour that i experienced before). It is sometimes “normal”, sometimes “bad” as what the other comments. In one day, i am late to depart 15min, i was just try to asked whether the bus was leaved since it is always late, but their guy told me that i should be there early. How come passenger should be in time, but the bus was not? Then, i was try to go to the platform to see whether the bus really leaved, but another guy stop me and said i’m late, they are not responsible and asked me to buy another ticket. I was wondering why he stopped me and won’t let me to have a look!! I’m not care about buy another ticket, i just want to confirm is it the bus leaved, sure that my seat was replace by other passenger..
I took Konsortium once and it was enough a bad experience. The bus driver left me at the Woodlands checkpoint, well almost left me because I managed to chased after the bus in time. I was took the last bus back from Singapore to KL. It was crowded at the Woodlands Checkpoint at the 10pm-11pm period so definitely immigration and customs takes longer then usual.
Generally, I realised that the bus will wait no more than 20 minutes and will leave regardless of whether you made it or not. This means bus driver don’t bother to count passengers before leaving. As I walked out of the ICA centre, I could already see my bus driving off. Thank God I was young enough to give chase to the bus or else I would have landed myself still in Woodlands not being able to go back KL.
My son bought a konsortium bus ticket from KL to Penang for the coming CNY last week. Usual ticket price is RM 27.00 but now it was sold at RM 33.00,
festive price! Don’t really mind if the service and punctuality at that moment worth the extra RM6.00 charged.
Yes, the service really bad. Last time my friend and I bought 2 executive seat to Kuala Lumpur from Penang, it were cost RM 40 per seat. But we have wait for 1 hour plus, the bus still not yet come (we are waiting at the platform, we inhale a lot of carbon), then I went to their counter to asked for a bottle of water, but they said they din’t provided water (RM 40 not include even a bottle water), Okay, nevermind, then i went down again, we wait for another half an hour, we were very angry already, we decided to srove down, so my friend went to the counter to asked for refund, but they scold my friend and said that that is not their fault and said no refund was allowed, how come their service so poor?
True enough! Lets band Konsortium Express Bus.
i want to share a horrible experience with the public. i took a konsortium bus from penang t kl yesterday (19/4/08) at 530pm. the bus turned out to be from Freebury Ekspress. that was still ok though was not the original konsortium. the bus number was 8829.
but during the journey, at sabak bernam area, the bus driver was racing with a trailer. yes. i agree it was the trailer’s fault n ego. but the bus driver actually stopped the bus at the road side at highway with double emergency signals on and went dowon the bus, to quarrel with the trailer’s driver! how irresponsible to leave the bus passengers at the road side. lucky enough no one hit us! or else, my news will be in the newspaper today! how can the company hire such person?? all bus drivers must be well disciplined! i strognly demand Konsortium to consider teach and educate the divers or else, please dont run this dangerous busniness! what a shame to malaysians!!!
I took a lot of Konsortium busses KL-SG, KL-JB and JB-KL. So far my comment is their busses are newer and very good service when departing from Pasarakyat (Imbi) because the guy that handles the ticketing there is very reliable and friendly; and he’s Chinese. I don’t mind paying a few bucks more for this service.
The ones from Puduraya have cheaper tickets (with no water bottle or snacks) and busses are older. The Puduraya busses seem to have the same disease as the other bus companies when it comes to punctuality. If the bus is not full, they WILL DEFINITELY delay the departure. Over all I think the bus trips are bearable, at least they keep within the 4hr journey and don’t stop for long food breaks. One more thing tho, night busses seem to beat the speed limit with 3.5hrs JB to KL, now that’s scary! Imagine not waking up alive =/
now they’ve done it, konsortium banned
i’m a university student who travels to KL-PG and vice versa often. Konsortium workers are irritating sometimes, they tend to talk in a immature manner. So far, i’ve exprienced the longest delay of 2 hours with konsortium, and the reason they gave was the bus is not full. Imagine answering foreigner tourist with that kind of respond.
Hopefully the tourism ministry will do something more about it. they are operating using other names now.
