It’s nice to see a company being honest to customers and canceling the two new services to stabilise the network instead of missing boards on almost all routes.

It’s a problem across the whole country, can’t blame the drivers who’ve jumped ship, some lorry companies are offering great incentives at the moment alongside nearly double the hourly pay compared to Bus Companies

They weren’t honest though. The day before they posted about the X1 withdrawal they posted something and we’re asked by several passengers about the X1 as buses hadn’t turned up and drivers were telling passengers it was being dropped and D&G were taking it over, hulleys denied it saying it was all just rumours. They were anything but honest.
