*GEMS - "going the extra mile for service" singapore services campaign

Yesterday night, the 12th of May, at around 7 p.m, I was on the bus 36, with licence plate SBS461D.

I was going to the Esplanade with my Friends to enjoy a concert. 36 is a very popular route- the bus was very crowded. My friends and I were clearly squished at the back of the bus, and the bus driver still kept shouting at everyone, rudely, to move to the back.

Then, when we arrived at the Esplanade, we tried to get out of the bus, along with 7 other people we did not know (making a total of 10). The bus driver quickly opened the doors, letting only 2 people out before shutting the doors again. It was very clear that we were trying to get out still- there were some people closer at the front where the driver could see them trying to get out. On top of that, we (including the people we did not know) began to press the STOP buttons repeatedly so he would reopen the doors- at least 10 times- however he refused to even though we were still only 1 meter away from the bus stop. We stayed at that position for around 10-15 seconds- enough time, in my opinion, to hastily exit.

To our amazement, the doors remained closed, and we had to drop off at the next bus stop and walk all the way backwards. Luckily, we were early for the concert- had it been any later we would not have been allowed entrance until the intermission an hour and a half after the start of the concert.

Maybe the bus driver was late on his route and was trying to speed up the journey, however, as an appalled customer, I feel that he did not save any time and that ultimately, as a bus service, SBS Transit should be trying to meet the goal of delivering passengers to where they want (and pay to) go.

my complaint.
