TravelMaster.ie Avis 

On the 13th of November I travelled to Kendrick Lamar in the 3arena on the travelmaster bus from Alfred Street.

A second bus had to come after the first bus was full and the second bus driver was 10 minutes late. He was also one of the most unpleasant men I have ever met in my whole life. He called out everyone's names one by one while we stood out in the lashing rain, this took about 20 minutes as he had 70-80 names to call out and some of the people had gone on the first bus. Perhaps using the QR codes supplied on the tickets would be beneficial in future, however he seemed to be incapable of doing so and was instead just ticking people off a list and calling them out.

He also called out one of my friends name and then proceeded to not let him on because people were talking while his name was called out, told him he wasn't being left on the bus and when my friend re approached him after everyone else was on the bus driver started a shouting match with him and tried to claim his name wasn't on the list despite having called out his name five minutes previous.

He then claimed that he was leaving at 11pm regardless of what time the concert ended, which caused everyone on the bus to have to leave the concert early. The bus driver himself didn't show up at the bus until approximately 11:15pm so this threat of leaving at 11pm was completely false. I also missed the end of Kendrick because of this.

The toilet on the bus on the way up and down also had no toilet paper nor soap, making me worry for the general cleanliness of the bus.

I booked return seats for Garth Brooks for myself & 3 others. The bus pulled up, a few people from the queue got on (bus driver for both buses were painstakingly slow checking people off a printed list, there must be a quicker way, a scanning device or something!) & then the bus driver said they were full and that another bus would be here in 10 minutes. About 25 minutes later another bus came & all bar 4 people were able to get on so I don't know what ever happened to those other poor people who were turned away after booking seats. When I booked the return journey I was expecting a bus that would arrive at scheduled time with enough seats to cater for all who had booked. The second bus that we made it on didn't leave until after 4pm & we were meant to leave at 3pm. Not the company's fault on this part but where buses had to park up was a 38 minute walk to Croke Park.

Got the bus to the Green Day Hella Mega tour in Dublin. Useful, but the bus showed up late for the pick up and arrived at the concert venue late as well. 1 of the 4 bands missed, very disappointing. Surely a bespoke bus put on exclusively for the concert has to be on time!?

Honestly a very useful way to get to and from a concert. For the Hella Mega tour date in Dublin me and 4 others got the bus from cork to right outside the venue. However, the bus itself was 20 minutes late which would've been fine if the driver didn't refuse entry to everyone so that he could read every individual name of about 30-40 people from a list to let them in one by one, and also refused to allow people in together when everyone had a screenshot of a ticket that could've been scanned upon entry. We ended up leaving 40 minutes late because of this and our driver was incredibly rude to the passengers in the bus; I personally was shouted at when I first entered the bus for mishearing my name, as the driver was standing quite a ways away and barely anybody could hear as he called out - I
cannot stress this enough - 30+ names one by one, most of the time twice.

When leaving for the concert the driver was very unhelpful when people were asking him questions and only answered them with the same response every time.

The bus itself was also in shambles if I'm
honest. The seats were broken so that you could not put pressure on the back of the seat, or else it would completely fall down onto the person behind you. The bathroom was unclean and had no toilet paper, and had a horrible smell for the entire trip home through the whole bottom floor of the bus. Literally the entire time. It was actually nasty.

Myself and 4 friends got the bus from cork to Marley park for the greenday concert. The bus was supposed to leave at 1pm but it left 40mins late. The bus driver read out every single name and called them on one by one - instead of simply scanning the code OR allowing the person to call out their name so it could be ticked off the list. The bus driver was extremely rude to people for no reason. He told us we had 30mins after the concert to get back on (tickets say 45mins) and there was no stop halfway (tickets say there is). The seats are not sturdy and the toilet was a mess. The whole bottom floor on the bus smelled of urine the entire trip.
