Calling Greyhound Customer Care at 800-231-2222

Jan 24, 2024

I am thinking about taking a trip over break, but a flight is too expensive in this economic climate. Therefore, I thought maybe I'd check into Greyhound to see what type of pricing I could find. I also am looking at an alternative destination to hopefully spend less while still getting to see something new. I like to try to get out and see the world as much as possible when I have downtime. I've never traveled via Greyhound though, so I thought that I would call to book a trip to make sure that I get my questions answered. 

To be honest, I've never thought about traveling Greyhound before and didn't even know where the closest terminal would be to me. I also didn't know how it works, and if there are layovers and transfers like there would be on a flight. These are all things that I thought an agent would be the best to assist me with. Given that Greyhound travels across the country, I thought there might be a long wait. It turns out there was a medium wait, but it was an odd one because they don't use hold music and for a while, I thought they hung up on me or something glitched. 

When I called, an automated voice picked up and said, "Welcome to Greyhound." He then offered me to continue in English, Spanish, or French and I chose English. Before I could even get to directory options, I had to listen to two very long lectures. The first was about the data policy of Greyhound and the second seemed like a leftover artifact from lockdown. Both held little meaning to me and took too much time. 

Next, I was offered a directory that included these options, "For fares and schedules, press 1. For information about possible questioning and Washington state travel, press 2. To book a trip, press 3. To find a bus stop, press 4. To track your bus, press 5. For information for first-time travelers, press 6." After I pressed 3, it asked me to stay on the line and gave me instructions about taking part in a survey. Then the line went dead.

There was no hold music or anything, but it also didn't hang up on me. I waited for 10 minutes and nothing changed. It was just dead silence the entire time. I'm not sure if I would've gotten to someone or not, but I hung up and figured I'd try one more time. If the same thing happens I'll probably just go online and book.
