Guest lvdkeyes Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 Yesterday I booked the bus with pickup at my condo for tomorrow. It was booked. They just called me that the minibus was downstairs now to take me to the airport. I told the driver that I was going tomorrow, not today. He called me back a few minutes later and said they cannot pick me up tomorrow, I would have to get to the bus station myself. I called to the office and could not get any satisfaction. The woman in the office said, "Tomorrow we are busy, cannot pick up everybody". I canceled and booked a car instead. This is the first problem I have had with their service. Quote
Gaybutton Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 This is the first problem I have had with their service. That's a shame, but with all the confusion and chaos going on in Pattaya, I'm not surprised at the screw-up. Under normal circumstances it probably never would have happened. Quote

Under normal circumstances it probably never would have happened. I agree, but they have forgotten the rule. "When you are up to your ass in alligators, your priority is to drain the swamp." In other words, just get on with the business. If they had told me that they could not pick up anyone I would have felt better than saying "We cannot pick up everyone." Quote
Guest Astrrro Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 First time I've heard of a Bell screwup. Just curious did you call or email to make your reservation? I prefer to email and get a confirmation. Quote
Guest lvdkeyes Posted April 11, 2009 Posted April 11, 2009 did you call or email to make your reservation? As I said, this is the first problem I have had with them. I always call. They didn't deny that I had made a booking. Quote
Guest jtrack33 Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 The bus price from Suvanabhumi public bus terminal to Pattaya bus terminal for those who don't need a hotel pickup/dropoff is around Bht115 and runs every 2 hours. But does anyone know where this same bus service starts from in Pattaya to return to the airport? There is a window at the bus station in Pattaya's north road with bus times to the airport, but whenever you ask where is the bus, they refer you to the Bell office nearby where you have to pay Bht200.
