(04 Apr 2015, 8:50 am)Tommy_1581 I haven't told the driver about such things not working, I've told the supervisor. He said and I quote; "As long as the tyres and engine are working, it's a minor problem".

However if I call GNE on a 0191 number, about wifi not working, they'll try their very best to resolve the problem. Arriva just sit around.

I sincerely hope that GNE reenter Ashington and Northumberland, I'll certainly be using them.

As for being 13, no, I'm allowed on the forum. Maybe the forum rules might want to stop autistic members joining too?

I will consider liking Arriva again, if they get their act together. I'm the one paying £7 for a DaySaver for sh***y buses which don't look like they've been cleaned since they've been bought.

As for you being an Arriva driver, enjoy your free bus travel, it won't be long until I inform Arriva of your actions toward other forum members.

All the best,

I'd say that it was mostly opinions on how services are run on bank holidays rather than a DIRECT attack and I don't see where having autism has anything to do with this, I have autism but I don't play the autism card everytime someone says anything I don't agree with.

I think some people on here expect to much, we are always seeing people moaning that there bus is a few minutes late and the way some people go on surrounding these delays you thought that they were 6 hours late rather than 6 minutes, I am not saying it is okay for services to run late but sometimes these delays are out of the bus operators control so there is nothing they can really do apart from read your compliants and maybe give you a free ticket of some sort. If you are constantly unhappy with the bus service you are receiving complain to the company in question as constantly complaining on a public forum isn't going to fix the problems you are facing.

Also you are complaining about being threatened and then threaten him to a greater extreme. We have had issues with enthusiasts complaining to companies in the past with some innocent drivers nearly getting the sack because of silly incidents like this in the past and I do not want to see this happen again as it gives all of us a bad reputation and I do not want us good enthusiasts getting grief for one persons actions.

I'm aware this sounds harsh but this what I feel needs to be said.
