I bought a ticket from amtrack for a bus. But I tried to board at a different station. The driver didnt accept the ticket. The customer service agent is extremely rude. I didnt know that I couldnt board at a later station but they could have atleast explained it to me nicer.

I was on hold over 1 hour trying to get my e ticket sent to me.
I paid for my tickets and the. They transferred me to another number so I could give them my e mail address so my e tickets could be sent. No one ever came on the line. They said a 30 minute wait. I waited for over an hour and no one came on. They got my money and I never got my e ticket. This is ridiculous. Sorry service

Verified Reviewer New ReviewerWorst experience ever
I booked the California Zephyr out of Glenwood Springs traveling thru the Rocky Mountains and arriving in Denver. I had planned this trip for months. Flew from Charlotte NC to Eagle just take the train. Delay after delay after delay. Train arrived 7 hours late and it was pitch black when it departed station. Missed dinner reservations with friends I had not seen in years and arrived in Denver at 1:55 am instead of 6:30pm. I will not ever take another Amtrak train. Spent hundreds and not one Amtrak employee apologized for the long long long delay
User's recommendation: Don’t do it.

Booking
Firstly, the website is overloaded with images and unnecessary graphics making navigation very frustrating. It seems to be impossible to book tickets from the UK and their contact form doesn't work.
User's recommendation: Fly or drive.

Reservations and customer service
I realize these are difficult times for everyone. BUT to wait for 1 1|2 hours for an agent to answer the phone is unacceptable as is being cut off not once but twice while finally being connected to an agent. As I write this I've been waiting for Nico, my agent, to return to my call. (He put me on hold 20 minutes ago). I've used Amtrack several times and never experienced this. Amtrak needs to improve their wait time and customer assistance!

You've got reason why. also I know now why the government subsidises them with billions every year. Over 300 billion this year They trip over there feet.

it's 2022 and it's still horrible! It is just sitting there waiting, i guess, for me to enter a return date, even though I selected the "One Way" option from their choice area. It is literally doing nothing to help me see if there are any train trip options going from one place to another
