              I ordered 4 tickets (2 for me and 2 for my 8 year old) for September 29th to leave Hibbing Mn going to ****** and then a ticket for a bus boarding from ****** to *********** due to there not being a straight shot bus. My bus (schedule JL 920) was set to arrive at 9:55 am in ********** and arrive in ****** at 11:30 where I would then board the bus in ****** at 12:05 to head to ***********. I also had returning tickets. I had my two small children with me one who was only a few months. The bus was 30 minutes late which isn't unusual when I decided to call and they let me know the bus was canceled and if I wanted a refund I would have to fill out a form online. They denied my refund until I argued with them and they agreed for the one they canceling but not my connecting or returning that I could no longer get to due to them canceling the first bus because. Not only did I not get an email or information about my bus getting canceled and being outside with my small children for over an hour I was also out of hundred of dollars. AVOID THEM AT ALL COST.
