Big Green Coach Omdömen 

Used BGC on Saturday for Iron Maiden at Knebworth. Pick up was ok and on time. Upon arriving we disembarked near arena entrance and driver said return would be in line 6. All good!
Well no it wasn't, after show we couldn't find coach, BGC staff we're useless and clearly hadn't got a clue what was going on and we're out of their depths. We found out our coach had gone to Dover and a replacement hadn't turned up. We got on another coach we hadn't arrived on. The driver then told us the toilet was out of order, absolute joke after a day in the sun. Fortunately the driver stopped at services to allow people off to use services, frankly he had to, we had been on coach over 2½ hours by this stage and we was still over an 1½ hours from drop off. I used BGC for Finsbury Park 8 years back, same dreadful experience then too. Never again, I'd seriously avoid this service.

Waited over one hour to take shuttle bus from Stevenage to Knebworth. Once on board it took another hour to get there after it went a random long route (we had been told it would take 20 minutes). Very hot day, no air con, would have been quicker to walk which we would have done if false information hasn't been given out.

Had a coach booked from Knebworth to Victoria after event for 11.30pm. Very chaotic finding the right coach, staff giving wrong directions. Finally found the coach only to be told they were full so they obviously hadn't checked tickets. After being sent to various buses that were also full we finally got told to get on a bus leaving at midnight, half hour later than we had booked for. Extremely disorganised and staff were pretty clueless once we actually found them.

Awful experience travelling to Knebworth from High Wycombe for Eddfest. Booking reference BGC6806211 and BGC6806213. Coach was 40 minutes late and not all passengers could board as wasn’t the original coach. My son and I managed to get seats but the air conditioning didn’t work. Journey was awful with temperatures in the coach starting at 34 degree and reaching 38 degrees for the last hour of the journey which was spent driving around lanes from incorrect drop off zone to incorrect drop off zone. Driver did his best under very difficult circumstances which is the only reason I award 1 star. We were eventually dropped off in a lane about a mile from the bus park. On return the stewards had no idea where our bus was even though we explained the situation of not having a bus number, no idea where it was parked etc. We eventually found the bus by pure chance as it was replacement with no destination label on display in the window. We recognised the same young driver who was organising things. Journey home was slow and we didn’t depart until way after scheduled 1130pm slot but at least we got back, I fear others might not have. Will never use this company again. I note looking at recent reviews they are quick to respond to positive reviews but haven’t reached out to any of the users who have had a poor experience which is a shame.

Worst experience of travel; late collection, highly unorganised schedule, no air con in 32 degree heat during a shambolic 6 hour journey, rancid overflowing toilet facilities, customer service hung up twice after coach driver abandoned the coach in a narrow country lane forcing passengers to continue on foot for over 2 miles without any idea where to find the return coach! Staff wit clipboards on return were completely clueless and cut off by customer service yet again! This company should be avoided at all cost! Iron maiden Gloucester-Knebworth 11/07/2026

I travelled with this company yesterday to see My Chemical Romance at Wembley, and unfortunately the experience was very disappointing.
We were picked up from Moto Services Bridgwater around 20 minutes late. A journey that should normally take around 2 hours and 40 minutes ended up taking approximately 6 hours.
The coach had no noticeable air conditioning, and the windows didn't appear to open, making the journey extremely uncomfortable in the 33°C heat. On the return journey, the driver said, "I've opened the windows and put the air conditioning on," which left me wondering why this hadn't been done on the journey to Wembley.
As someone travelling alone, I was also told I was "sad" because I was travelling solo, which I found unnecessary and unprofessional.
The journey home took around 4½ hours, including a 30-minute stop at services just 15 minutes from our scheduled drop-off point. We were then told we would be dropped outside the services instead to save 30 minutes. As a woman travelling alone, being left to walk alongside a busy main road back to my car did not feel safe or appropriate.
I chose to travel by coach because I believed it would be a safer and more comfortable option for a solo female traveller. Sadly, this experience did not meet those expectations, and I won't be booking with this company again.
I also felt sorry for the passengers continuing on to Plymouth, especially after hearing there were concerns that the drivers might run out of their permitted driving hours. I sincerely hope everyone made it home safely.

We travelled to Wembley on 20th June 2026 using the Big Green Coach services for the very first time. I just wanted to recognise the excellent customer service we received from your two drivers Stephen and Gareth. These two drivers are a real asset to your business, they were polite, and professional.

You could tell they loved their job and bounced off of each other, what a fun duo. They really made the experience, ensuring everyone's journey was comfortable and making every single one of us feel welcome.

Please ensure that this is passed to their bosses in Wales so they can both get the recognition they so deserve.

This company is run by clowns. Edd fest I waited 2 hours for a bus which is supposed to take us 2 miles to the venue. Apparently stuck in traffic but the reality is they only have a few busses on the route but the queue of people at Stevenage is over 400 waiting to board a bus 50 at a time. 8 pounds to take you 2 miles but a wait over 2 hours. Absolute jokers. Any business trying to hire these clowns your reputation is also on the line. Be warned. Also they don't do refunds you have to do so from the festival which will take a month if I actually get one.

I went to BTS at Tottenham Stadium for 2 nights and travelled with big green coach with both days. Was nervous about using this company as there are very mixed reviews and experiences. However! I would recommend them and use them again in the future. The coach parked conveniently right next to the venue; we didn’t have to fight the crowd for the tubes/shuttle buses on the way out. The second night we were faced with M1 night closures so was hugely delayed to get back to Coventry. Our driver Cormac was brilliant, patient and informative throughout the journey. Even apologised for the delay when it was not his fault there was roadworks! The coaches used had a fully working air con - it was so cold that someone said put the heating on!! A couple of downsides, we weren’t able to leave earlier than the time they set even if everyone was back on the coach; you don’t know what other stops there are along the way until you’re on the coach.

Had a horrible experience this week traveling to Wembley from Plymouth and back for MCR 8th July.
On the hottest day of the year our bus arrived with broken aircon. We made several stops to collect more people and we're soon all sweltering on an airless full bus in 34 degree heat.
The staff were friendly and professional.
But it's hard to believe they'd been able to set off in a vehicle without aircon. Also they promised to park undercover so the bus would cool for the return leg. However they parked in full sun and the bus was like a sauna on our return. Our journey was uncomfortable and scary (I have a heart condition) and we arrived at the venue exhausted and like limp lettuce.

Appalling service, communication and customer service. Essentially big green coaches only take responsibility for taking your money beyond that any issues such as being advised by the driver that departure would be 15 minutes earlier than stated in the ticket meaning missing the end of the show as the walk was not the short distance we were informed of; the coach being locked in the car park as security refused to release it due to big green coach not having paid the parking charges; having to change to a minibus unplanned part way through the journey as account has not been made for the drivers tacho hours being exceeded etc are not their responsibility and there is no pathway for dispute as they outsource the travel .

I travelled with your company for the Wembley stadium show on the 27th June for harry styles.
My pick up place was Derby bus station at 12.30, I have been using your coach company for the last few weeks to travel to the same place for the same show and have previously had no issues and the journey had taken 2 hours and 15 minutes (give or take with traffic).
Yesterday, the journey took 4 and a half hours.
We did not arrive at pink car park until 4.55pm, 5 minutes before the stadium doors open.
I had purchased an early entry vip package for the show which meant my entry was 4.15, these packages cost a lot of money and I picked your travel company for this show because I have as stated above have had no issues previously and have been getting to the stadium at 3pm.

This was not a delay due to traffic, but a delay due to frequent stops including a driver change over 15 minutes into my journey which we were told would only take 10 minutes, we were sat in the Trowell northbound services for over 40 minutes.
The driver explained he had only been employed by your company since Monday, he had to call someone to ask how to turn the park handbrake off so we could start our journey.
We then stopped again, an hour into our journey at another services (when nobody on the coach had asked for a stop or wanted a stop) and we again, sat there for a further 30 minutes.

The heating on the coach was stuck on and could not be switched off, the heaters by our feet were getting dangerously hot and we had asked since the first pick up in Derby for them to be switched off, the driver once again called someone and was told they can’t be switched off and this was an issue that the company was aware of since the day before when another driver used to coach.
It was 32 degrees outside and potentially more inside. This is seriously dangerous especially in a heatwave when there are no windows that can be opened and the AC was not turning on either.

We arrived at Wembley stadium and I had missed my entry due to all the above delays, a journey that usually takes just over 3 hours should not have exceed 4 hours. There were people on the coach from the first stop at 9.30am who were told we would reach Wembley stadium around 2.50/3pm.

On the way home, the driver had to once again pull over an hour into the journey explaining he was struggling to keep his eyes open for the rest of the journey, adding further delay on the way back and also panic to the travellers on board as this is not what you want to hear from your driver when you want to get home safely.

I would like a full refund for my journey or compensation on the perks I missed with my concert ticket due to your company. (face value of my ticket was £335!)
I understand delays are normal, especially on event days but this once again was not a traffic issue but a driver and coach issue.

I will attach photos below of time stamps and the coach I was travelling on including the number plate.
I hope this can be resolved quickly.

I have emailed 3 times and have yet to hear a response!!

Used to go and see bts and it was a breeze. Will definitely be using big green coaches again.

Really helpful, needed to change pickup locations and my query was handled fast with minimal effort on my part

Absolutely fabulous to deal with the Big Green Coach Company! They were so very helpful and quick to reply to my emails..nothing was any trouble for them. I mistakenly booked wrong pick up location for Wythenshawe park to see the Cure but when i realised and got in touch with customer service they soon calmed me down and sorted it all out for me with easy to understand instructions..thankyou so much to your friendly polite and kind service! Looking forward to August! Kind regards to all the team! 😊

I’m only giving one star because I can’t give none.

Harry Styles - 3rd July.

Coach advertised as 11:30 pick up. Two coaches pulled up almost full to split the 20 people waiting at the Stoke stop onto the coach. Drivers never checked tickets, names etc… They didn’t know who they were collecting. Set off 15 minutes late and had almost an hour on the services for absolutely no reason. Everyone was back on the coach after 20 minutes!

Arrived at Wembley at 4:30pm. Advertised to arrive between 3-3:30pm. We missed the build up on Wembley way and had no time to queue up for merchandise or join in the activities outside! Literally grabbed something to eat and straight into the stadium.

Got to the coach at 10:45. Pulled out of the carpark on time and it literally broke down outside! Had to wait until 1:45am for another coach to collect us. No communication from the driver. He never spoke! Sat in darkness on the coach and then asked to get off to sit on the roadside absolutely freezing! No one had coats or blankets because no one could leave anything on the coach!!!

Other coach arrives to be told it was only going to Birmingham! The drops were meant to be Stafford, Stoke, Manchester and Liverpool!
My two daughters were alone on this coach, one only 13 and autistic and stressed to the max!

Arrived in Birmingham at 4:30am to be told it was another wait for another coach. Another coach arrived and a minibus pulled up behind. Taxi driver of the minibus asked the people from Stafford to get on his bus. The people for Manchester and Liverpool to get on the replacement coach. No mention of the Stoke drop!

My daughter had to argue with the driver for them to take them both home!!
Minibus driver reluctantly agreed and took them home. Arrived home at 6:30am!!!

Two other girls got on the coach who had screen shot a ticket online and hitched a ride home for free!

The whole service was absolutely appalling from start to finish. I’ve sent two emails, messaged every social media platform and we are a week on and still haven’t heard anything!

No apology, no communication, no explanation. Nothing.

Disgusting service and I will never use your service again. My girls were so upset and exhausted as they had no sleep all night! The Liverpool passengers got home at 9am!! How is this acceptable. We spent a fortune to your company to get to and from Wembley safely. This categorically did not happen. Sort it out BGC!!! Reply to your customers and compensate them!!!! Admit this is appalling service!!

Asked for my booking to be amended and transferred to my son and received an immediate reply from Layla to confirm all done and new booking sent by email to him . Very prompt service .

Went to see Harry Styles on the 27th June at Wembley & the driver was falling asleep at the wheel. Got in touch with customer services and they are yet to reply to me. I would have thought with the seriousness of this that they would respond quickly but apparently not. I had booked for BTS using this service but after what has happened with Harry Styles I am now trying to chase a refund for this as BGC is not safe to use.

Traveled from Southampton to Tottenham service was fabulous. Highly recommend.

Very quick response by Layla when swapping a coach booking to Wembley, thanks for your quick and easy support!

Went to watch BTS at Tottenham and used Big Green Coach to get from Hull and back.

The drivers, Lewis and Gary, were fantastic. They were friendly and funny and took great care of all us passengers, keeping us informed on what was happening etc.

Would definitely use again.
