Re: Giant Ibis Hit and Run
The Giant Ibis drivers occasionally drink at my neighbour's place. They use the bus for that, too.

looks cushty that to be fairRaybull wrote:Stopped using them when CityLink started shv-pp in 2014, their VIP buses were crazy nice for 8$, but they pulled out last year. Not surprised as a couple times it was only myself and the gf, probably would cost around 100$ to charter that nice of a bus for the trip.
They only do the pp-sr route now it seems.

Yeah mate, I've paid more for way shittier minibuses! Last time I booked with them was in October last year, my buddy was just starting up his BookMeBus site (top site that one, he's won quite a few startup awards) and we got to book the first tickets online, bus picked us up way out in Prek Leap no extra charge and just us two straight to my doorstep in SHV. Anyways, not sure why they never got popular on the PP-SHV route, lots of competition but they had the best product. Didn't help that their drivers would hand out personal cards and pickup customers for 6$. They folded the route a couple weeks after that trip IIRCJamie_Lambo wrote:looks cushty that to be fairRaybull wrote:Stopped using them when CityLink started shv-pp in 2014, their VIP buses were crazy nice for 8$, but they pulled out last year.

Re: Giant Ibis Hit and Run
I started using Giant Ibus a couple years ago when they first started. I stopped using them a couple months ago. The run from Phnom Penh to Sihanoulville was almost a suicide run. The driver drove too fast and we almost got in multiple accidents. At times the bus's movements almost threw me out of my seat. At the halfway point I asked the driver to slow down, but when we resumed he drove even faster. The driver appeared to be stoned or on some drug.
I complained to the main Giant Ibus office, but their reply was that their drivers would never do that and don't use drugs. The attitude of the Giant Ibus people was that it could never happen on their bus line and I was lying. I posted this on TripAdvisor(and this forum) and have been watching the news for a Giant Ibus bus crash as its not if there will be an accident(s), but how soon. They have been very lucky so far in only injuring people on motos. I hope some people have read my comments on TripAdvisor on this unsafe/uncaring company as it may save their livers.

As it seems we both shared a similar experience, I would also like to post something on TripAdvisor. Can you please provide a link to the one which included your comments.
