Firstly, no indication that it is not a direct bus when purchasing tickets, it stops at Tangkak before heading to Gombak 2. The bus didn't depart on time and only on the road for 10min then it stop by petrol station to refuel, time again wasted Will not recommend it, there are so much more better options.

Pagi itu saya terbeli tiket dgn driver bas di terminal Larkin dan meyakin kan yg ini bas baru, sepatutnya bas akan bergerak 9:30pagi, 6/12/2025 tetapi bas yg ditunggu2 tidak muncul. Sehinggalah pada jam 11:00 pagi , bas KBES yg nak ke Utara mengambil penumpang, kami yg nak ke TBS terpaksa naik bas yg sama. Pada jam 11:30 ke 12:00 tengahri bas baru bergerak ke destinasi. Kami penunmpang semua tiba di TBS pada jam 5:00ptg. Perkhidmatan ini disebabkan masalah driver yang nak mandi dulu, nak isi minyak dulu.. Servis lambat & mengecewakan... Diharap pihak pengurusan dapat memperbaiki keadaan ini supaya ramai lagi penumpang lebih mempercayai perkhidmatan bas ini. Terima kasih.
