    I've not used it yet, but i have to admit its fair play. What do you expect for 50p?
    Its a !!!!ty old bus, but for 50p thats what you get. If you want to go with NX it might be £20 and the train might be £30 or £40, but its not, its 50p so shut up and enjoy it.

    I used the bus in October for a day in London with
    my wife It cost me a total of 70p for the two of us.
    So what's the gripe ?

    We left South Yorkshire at 6.15 and arrived in London
    at 10.30 with one stop to change drivers.
    We then returned at 7 pm in the evening and were back
    home by 10.30 pm.
    That gave us over eight hours to look around and all
    I had to do was GET UP EARLY !
    As for the coach, It was a new one with tables and
    reclining seat on the lower deck,
    What the seating was like upstair, I dont know but I
    cant see them being any different to the lower deck.

    I can do no more than recomend the service as a vast
    improvement on the last time I used NX and finished being
    stranded at Victoria and having to use the train to get home.

    Well you have left it until the last possable date, there is only Thursday & Monday left before the offer ends.
    It HAS been going for three month !
    Just keep looking and they MAY run the offer again ( After the Xmas rush )
    And It does Advertise all over the outside of the coach that you can travel for £1.
