PHILIPPINE RABBIT BUS SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I ride the philippine rabbit bus yesterday January 23, 2010 around 6pm from DAU terminal going to SM North, the conductor asked me where am I heading to, told him he can drop me to SM North, he didn’t answer but hence he gave me a ticket and took my money. Once we were in the Camachile area he asked me again, I informed him at SM North. And then I noticed the bus was heading straight forward, it didnt turned right going to EDSA. I shouted at the driver and asked him “Manong hindi kayo dadaan ng north?” He said “Hindi Avenida kami” When I rode the bus from DAU they dont have the SIGN BOARD. And I rode the bus then conductor said they will pass by SM North!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT?! BOBO BA SYA OR WHAT? I WAS WITH MY KID WHO IS JUST 3 YEAR OLD NA FIRST TIME MAGCOMMUTE!!! BINABA KAMI NG BUS NUMBER 3129 SA LUGAR KUNG SAN CROWDED AT MARAMING SNATCHERS!!!

HINDI NA KAMI NAKATIPID NG PAMASAHE WE TOOK A TAXI PA NUNG PAGKABABA NG BUS NA TO SA MAPUTIK NA CROWDED NA LUGAR NALAGAY PA SA PELIGRO BUHAY NAMIN NG BABY KO!! IPAGKAKALAT KO DIN SA LAHAT NG BUS COMPANY ANG EXPERIENCE NA TO SO NO ONE WILL RIDE THIS BUS ANYMORE!!!!
IM SORRY THATS JANUARY 22!!
GAGO talaga ung rabbit! bastos pa ung mga conductor! lady believe me… you haven’t seen the worst of them… ive been traveling to class in manila daily since this is the only bus co in angeles.. i actually made a vow to myself that when i graduate i will concentrate all my efforts in setting up my own bus co and drive rabbit out of business!.. im glad i’m not the only one who hates rabbit..
You have to be wa-is if you plan to travel by bus. I’ve had my share of hassles with buses, but I’ve developed some ground rules during my college years when I commuted extensively and intensively. Allow me to share one rule with you:
1. Read the Signboard – I once rode a bus at Philcoa and in my exhaustion and obliviousness, discovered that it had driven all the way to Old Manila’s university belt when all I wanted was to get to Cubao and hop on a bus going North to Angeles. The worst part was, I had only enough money in my pocket for that one inner city bus ride and the bus ride north! Anyway, the lady conductor was v. kind and did not take my money and took me all the way back to Quezon Circle.
To ms crisostommo: Please, as much as possible, read the signboard before you board! If there’s no signboard, then don’t ride the bus nalang.
Frankly I think katangahan mo yun. Nakita mong walang signboard sumakay ka pa. Pasalamat ka sa camachile ka binaba. Baka much worse kung sa Bulacan sya dumaan. To think na kasama mo yung kid mo na 3 year old, YOU of all people should have been wiser. I have been using philippine rabbit bus and other buses for that matter and i could say, mas mabait naman personnel nila kaysa sa iba.
When was the last time that management of Philippine Rabbit had ever checked the state of their pathetic toilet facilitites in the Sta. Cruz station (it stinks to high heavens and has never been changed for the last ten years or so–but they still collect money for the use of it –P2.00 ihi, P5.00 dumi). This also goes for the extremely unhygienic condition inside the buses where the window curtains have never been washed since they were installed how many years ago, the luggage racks above the seats are filled with trash (I couldn’t even put my baggage on top), the seats are dirty and worn out, and the floor is dark, dirty, and unwashed.
Many bus companies have dramatically improved the condition of their buses through the years, but no, not the Phippine Rabbit.
To any government agency person reading this, or any media person seeing this message, please check out their said bathroom (water problem? have they even tried installing waterless urinals?) and bus facilities (please, please, video these said facilities to see and believe) and charge them for unsanitary conditions which are detrimental to the public health. The ticket booth, naka kamiseta lang. Polite, yes, but could this person at least look professional enough to put on a uniform?
Also, could you please just make everything cleaner and updated/more modern in your bus station? Nothing has been changed for all these years, everything looks worn and beaten-up, everything looks dark, grey, and polluted.
But, it seems that, no one seems to mind! Except me, of course, and I speak for those who are interested for this bus company that it’s about time they clean-up their act, or ship out (for those concerned Philippine Rabbit upper and middle management staff reading this, you should be fired for your unforgivable complacency and extreme incompetence in this regard).
Kudos, though, to your bus staff and drivers who are very polite and helpful, and this I believe, comes from their hearts.
Filipinos deserve better –time to hire new, dynamic people who can do the job, instead of keeping the status quo, which is a detriment of the riding public.
The Philippines is so disorganised compared to Singapore, yet I find it much more pleasant here – why are all of you so nice? Too much discipline is bad for you. You can’t board a bus in Singapore unless you have the right money – here I see people giving P.100 for a P.7 fare and they get change, even if the jeep has to stop at the tindahan. I still get amused at “riding” a bus, because we use British English and we only ride things that go between our legs – horses, camels, motorcycles. But that signboard – it’s not always right and the route on the side of the jeep isn’t in logical order either. Ask the driver – if he doesn’t answer, walay tubag, walay sakay.
Di dapat isisi sa iba ang kawalan mo ng street smarts, common sense at diskarte sa buhay. Or you should just buy a freaking car. Pa-sosyal ka nga, wala ka naman palang pera.
to miss cristine,
miss, you are old enough to determine that provincial bus follows certain routes..
and you are old enough too that provincial bus do not perform on what the city bus is doing…
in short, be street smart, wag kang sakay ng sakay agad, check mo kung provincial or city bus, row4!..
bawal ang tanga sa kanto…
alam mo nmn around the city klng, sukat ba nmn sa provincial bus ka sasakay?!!
the worse of it, i brobroadcast mo pa ginawa mong katangahan sa ltfrb?!! tsik tsik!
To those who replied:
There’s no signboard nga dba? so next option is to ask the driver? sasakay bako kung hindi ko alam kung san papunta yon? Eh sa sinabi ng driver OO DADAAN KAME SM NORTH! edi sumakay ako! sasakay bako dun kung hindi un dadaan don?
Not sure, kung gawa-gawa mo lang ang story mo. Alam mo ang SM North; pero di mo alam kung dumadaan ang Rabbit sa EDSA.
Tama naman ang conduktor, dadaan nga ng SM North, bababa ka nga lang ng Camatchiles.
Christine: Been there – Done that. I am happy for you were wisely dropped-off at a nicer place. Some passengers were let-go in a most in-appropriate locationwhere it can be difficult to get around or another ride. I’ll give you and your child ride with me should a blessed time comes. Just stay and keep your cool so just to maintain your sanity and be thankful that on the Internet we find opportunistic people as some writers above have done so. Be street wise, too. In 1996 I rode on one of those Farinas thing. The driver and conductor answered natures call while the bus was parked off rode. Lucky that when the bus roled down toward a cliff I was still awake, (1AM) went to control…brakes and forward gear… andwere awfully close to disaster about 15 feet! Yeah the sidmarks were there!
whoa, now that’s heavy.. :) maybe the lady wants her money’s worth that’s why she acted that way. and like what she said, first time ng anak niya to travel kaya she is concerned about the kid enough to give reason to her action..
in fairness sa kanya, me mga bastos na konduktor talaga.. as in walang modo. im not generalizing them, but I’ve had some experience na din.. and SHE ASKED, so sa lahat ng nag bash sa kanya about common sense and etc, it was well said that SHE ASKED.. and the mere fact of handing her the ticket gives her the answer, tama?
But, christine, i have to agree with them, wag kang masyadong pajunarte, kasi we’ve been there. you have to just expect the worst.. next time na lang..
