So a funny thing happened on the way home from work.
Monday 31 March.Waited for Bus Number 3174 at 16h40 in Cape Town CBD to get home to Edgemead.
Damned bus finally arrived 20 minutes late at 17h00 when the driver proudly announced : "There is no cash box on board so only ticket-holders are allowed on."
One young man insisted on travelling, he had no other way home. I offered to use my ticket to let him on. No go! Apparently that's not allowed. So the ever polite and hellepfull driver threw him off. At the next stop, two mature ladies were told to get off because they only had cash. Ye gods!
At the next stop, a line of about 10 cash-paying fares were ALL turned away.
I called Golden Arrow using the company's website contact details.
Yes, I was listened to and told this experience is not the bus service's policy.
Mmm... let's wait and see.
