I absolutely hate this bus service. The college routes don’t allow you to use a free travel card for disability, so I have to pay €20 a day for a bus that is constantly late, or doesn’t show up at all... Zobacz więcej

Absolutely irresponsible and I think…

Absolutely irresponsible and I think their drivers need to learn the importance of their customers and their time. Was suppose to take 3o'clock bus from Hueston station towards Kilkenny. Was waiting in bus stop since 2.30. Firstly the bus came late around 3.30 and then the driver didn't bother to stop at all even though me and my fellow customers were standing just Infront of the door of the bus. Don't even know why they have online ticket system cos mostly all of us waiting at the stop had online tickets. Which meant the driver knew he had passengers waiting. This is not the only time , have happened to me n my friends before as well. Worst is their management, I am sure I am not the only complaining yet the management doesn't take any step or actions hence such issues keep on happening. Missed my appointment cos of this but look what does it do the owner or the driver they are making 🤑 that's what it all matters to them. Bunch of irresponsible people trying to run a company.

My experiences

My experiences with this company unfortunately have not been good
The last few 3 or so times I've used this service it either just doesn't show up or shows up half hour late
I understand that when using the local services traffic can be an issue but the company should just be more honest with the time tabling and allow for this kinda stuff,I wouldn't be reallying on this company if you had to get to an important event such as a meeting or an appointment unless you want to take there service 2 hrs before the one you need that should get you there in time

Dreadful unreliable service

Dreadful unreliable service. Selling tickets for buses with no room on them and then leaving people stranded on the side of the street in Dublin on a Saturday night. This carry-on used to happen when I was a student in the 1990s and it's 2022 and nothing had changed.

I was caught up in traffic in carrick literally driving in front of the bus,I pulled in parked the car and ran to the bus took a while 30 seconds at most,the drive confronted me that I was late he was waiting for and nearly drove off I should be there 10 minutes before (which is true but not always possible) that the car behind nearly crashed into him,I told he'd to wait 1 minute at the most what was he's name,I was so shocked I couldn't concentrate on finding the ticket on my phone so probably ended up there 5 minutes going to and fro while other passengers waited,the abruptness of the driver called Roman was absolutely horrible,all because at the most a minute.

Late and Abandoned

Booked 2 tickets from Carlow IT to the airport for 5:45. Was there 15 mins ahead of time and the bus just drove past. Didn’t even slow down. I am absolutely livid- and there’s no contact number at this time to lodge complaints. I now have friends who will miss flights.

Waterford City Services

It's very disappointing that JJ Kavanagh suspended its Waterford City Services due to covid 19. While the health and safety of staff and customers are paramount surely measures could have been put in place similar to Bus Eireann who maintained a full City Service during the Pandemic. Is it time to bring the 607/617/627 services under the remit of the TFI PSO Route system, modernise the fleet and put modern electronic destination boards and route numbers on all the buses. It's very clear there has been little investment on these routes for a long number of years. Sounds like a case of running down a service so you can then claim the service should be abandoned. TFI need to review the licensing of these routes. The public deserve a better service and the sooner the better.

Kavanagh's bus service has been…

Kavanagh's bus service has been absolutely vital and fantastic service for me over the last few years between airport runs from Tipperary to Dublin Airport during bad weather conditions and Nenagh and Limerick Hospitals for visiting family when home from the USA. For many years it was my way home on weekends from Dublin and I still recognize several drivers today. The buses are always clean and quiet and drivers are always careful. I love that they don't crawl along but yet you feel safe. I used to use the Shannon service for a long time whether direct or from Limerick city. They're super handy for anything in and out of Roscrea. Great Service, friendly drivers, clean buses, always on time! Brilliant company!

Denied refund for a canceled service

I am very disappointed that JJ Kavanagh and Sons will not refund two tickets I purchased online, totaling a cost of €49. The bus service for these tickets has been cancelled due to Covid-19 (Which I agree with for the safety of staff and the public). However, this was a once off journey and I have no need to simply "change the ticket dates" as I do not need to travel on any other date. I've used JJ Kavanaghs services for a very long time, all through my years as a student, and this is the first time I have been severely let down. Cancelling the service was the responsible thing to do, but not giving people back their money is wrong.

Hi KR, First off, thanks for sharing your feedback. I’m really sorry that had a bad experience while travelling with us and we didn’t meet your expectations. Clearly, we fell short, and I apologize. All customers who booked their tickets online and were due to travel during COVID-19 we have waived our ‘changed your ticket’ fees to give customers flexibility and choice. We know you may not know when you’ll be travelling again, so you have as many times as you like to change it once you use the NEW reference number each time. If you’d like to talk more, please feel free to reach out to me personally at laura@jjkavanagh.ie.

Thanks again for the feedback, and take care!

Sitting here on the bus, listening to the interaction between the driver, Colin, (heard another lady passenger mention his name), & the passengers. Looking after their problem tickets, waiting on them as they arrive by the skin of their teeth for the bus, and his general kind demeanor to all passengers. I complimented him and he said " Sure it's nice to be nice"
Hold onto this very pleasant driver 👌😊

Hi Sally, I appreciate your honest feedback here. The last thing we want to do is let our customers down, and moving forward, we’re going to do everything in our power to hold ourselves to that standard. It is an ongoing project with timings of each service via the GPS in the coaches and ticketing machines. We're also creating a new real-time info portal where customers will be able to track the coach and know when the bus will arrive at the bus stop.

Again, we’re sorry we dropped the ball this time, but we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance. Feel free to reach out to me personally at laura@jjkavanagh.ie and I’ll see to it that you get what you need this time. Have a great day!

Unpleasant, costly experience. Unhelpful customer service.

Bought 60 euro worth of tickets for me and my brothers to travel home before Christmas. JJ's have changed their ticketing policy and we were not able to use the return section of the tickets. JJ's very happy to take my money and unwilling to help solve the problem. Lost 30 euro worth of tickets!
Unhelpful customer service.

Hello Tyrone, first off, thanks for sharing your feedback. I am really sorry that we didn’t meet your expectations. When buying online tickets for the discounted price, you have to select dates that you wish to travel on. All tickets purchased through the JJ Kavanagh & Sons online booking facility are non-refundable. However, we do have a new feature that will allow JJ Kavanagh & Sons customers to change the time and date of their web ticket, 2 hours prior to their journey. This ensures customers don't lose out on their tickets (if they need to change or cannot travel on the dates selected).

I hope you’ll allow us to make it up to you. If you’d like to talk more, please feel free to reach out to me personally at laura@jjkavanagh.ie. Thanks again for the feedback, and take care!

Very bad timekeeping

Very bad timekeeping.I'm late to work every day because of their bad timekeeping.I can understand when it's traffic,but can't blame on traffic every morning at 5am not much traffic. The bus is 15- 20 minutes late every morning.Most of the drivers are sound and the bus pretty clean

Horrible service

While returning from kildare to Dublin at 15:20,bus was full, driver told another bus within 30 mins to arrive which never happens. Got stranded with my kids for 4 hours till next bus came. We were a lot of ppl waiting, have to fight to get a place for my family, I never thought this kind of chaos still happening in this age. What is the meaning of booking tickets online while on the ground dozens of ppl can't ride the bus they booked and paid. Feeling sorry for ppl stranded there at kildare on Dec 26th.

Booked a bus to go to a match and they emailed me the day before saying it wasnt running I didnt check my emails until the morning and was stuck looking for a bus. I had the same problem with a other bus company but they rang they had the decency to ring me and tell me on early on in the week. This is extremely poor mangment and customer service. Will not be using this service again.

Untrustworthy, Unreliable and utterly abysmal

The bus I paid for from Kildare Village at 7:20pm back to Dublin Airport never arrived. As I was walking to the bus stop at 7:05 pm I saw a JJ Kavanagh bus leaving. Either the bus was overbooked and left early or it was a no show. I paid a ridiculous fare and then had to pay for the more reliable Dublin Coach to ensure I didn't miss my connecting bus at the airport. Their phone number did not work and they are not responding to my mails. Absolutely shocking service.
