I emailed First Bus just over a week ago (using their extremely annoying online contact form which asks for way more information than necessary as they no longer have any email addresses) asking about the price of their Single and Return fares for a journey. They have just responded to me (from their customer service centre in Leeds which deals with the entire country) and told me that they don't have access to Single and Return fares and can only tell me the price of network Day/Week/Month tickets. They advised me to speak to the driver to find out the Single and Return fares for my journey.
This is just ridiculous! What sort of company doesn't know the prices of their own products!
Even the Arriva Bus customer service centre (which is based in Luton and deals with the entire country) have full faretables for all routes in the country and are always able to give out Single and Return fares if you email or phone or tweet them (also Arriva still have working email addresses unlike First so you don't have to use their contact form).
Surely it's not too hard for their customer service centre to get hold of faretables for all of their operations so that they can tell passengers the prices of Single and Return fares? Surely this is basic essential information which they should be able to easily find and advise passengers of the Single and Return fares?
