Honestly, GCT would do a better job than these lot, absolute clowns

Just shows that people will suck up to GNE on this forum. People insist that if GCT or Arriva do anything wrong they should have contracts taken from them, yet I'm yet to see someone call for this in regards to GNE. Especially regarding the 317.

There should be no delays from one of the oldest and the biggest bus companies in the north east.

I remember SNE 'teething issues' as some have referred to being sorted out within decent amount of time. This was mainly due to the fact 24101 - 24107 were used for their Euro 6 engines as part of the contract, and the residents of Howdon etc.. were not used to buses this long using the route. Parked cars were the main issues for ages. Once this was sorted there was rarely an issue. Timetabling is Nexus' area of incompetence....

Missing stops and just ignore the route. Mu cousin got on the 317 and they went the wrong way. Told him he went the wrong way and the driver just went eh and shrug his shoulders

Yep that sounds like GNE drivers....the company is a disgrace. I know that Arriva are as well but this is in particular reply.
