Basically it was about being conned at Ashington bus station and the 0930 X22 not turning up.

I was told that there is no CCTV facing towards the shelter (Stand A, go and look for yourself to see if theres CCTV pointing towards the stand from a lamppost...!) so they couldn't have recorded it. It wasn't an Arriva matter, despit it being an Arriva bus station and how I should contact the police "if its serious enough".

So, nothing to prevent a similar incident, as it is not an Arriva matter.

The 0930 X22 experienced difficulties of some sort and regretfully missed the bus station. As I used the X20 (non Sapphire service), I don't qualify for a no-quibble money back voucher either.

Exactly the response I expected, rather unhelpful and no apology.
