Thread: helloooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Default helloooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Can anyone enlighten me to the fares on the stagecoach buses.If I get the no 82 it costs me £4 for a return from Halkirk to Thurso but if I get the X99 it only costs me £3.40 for a return for the same journey. I have asked some of the bus drivers but no one seems to know why the fares are so different.???????????????

    I would imagine you would get the right answer from Stagecoach themselves. Try phoning or emailing their depot in Inverness.

    I dialed 999 and asked "what time does the train run between Inverness and Wick", but I was told off and given a very stern warning for wasting police time and the 999 service was for emergencies only.

    I then pointed out it was an emergency, I had been tied to the railway track on a stag outing.

    Sorry, I'll get my coat. (again)

    A computer must set the fares as the crow flies or something. When i worked at BT, the bus from the comm to the business park was £1.05. From miller bsu stop, via the comm, to the business park was 95p. It was tje same vice versa. Clearly either a computer done it it they had more passengers from that stop so charged more.
