Baitiare Rojas, 2/6/2026

Pésimo servicio, primero llegan atrasados, y el problema de comunicación entre los trabajadores es nefasta. Al momento de comprar nuestro boleto notificamos de antemano que viajabamos con una lavadora ... Pésimo servicio, primero llegan atrasados, y el problema de comunicación entre los trabajadores es nefasta. Al momento de comprar nuestro boleto notificamos de antemano que viajabamos con una lavadora (12kg), la señorita quieren nos vendio el boleto dijo que no habría ningún problema en llevarlo, consultamos de igual manera a uno de los conductores de los buses (trabajador de la línea) si habia algun problema o algo de lo que tendríamos que saber (en ningún momento nos mencionaron de un cobro extra). Al momento de subirnos tampoco se nos notifico de un monto extra, y ya sentados en los asientos el asistente nos notifica que debemos pagar 40mil pesos chilenos (lo que nos parece excesivo) y al negarnos porque no es nuestro problema su falta de comunicación, nos dijo que nos dejaría botados. Al final mi pareja tuvo que pagar el dinero extra. Nosotros como clientes cumplimos con nuestro deber de pregunta y de pagar correctamente nuestro pasaje, no es nuestro problema si el personal no se ponen de acuerdo con notificar a los clientes. Pésimo servicio no lo recomiendo para nada
