      I was returning back from *******, ** on May 9th on my way back to **************. The bus was frigid cold and I stepped off the bus to warm up when we arrived in *********, **. The driver never did a head count and ultimately left 5 of us in *********,. I called **************** and was informed that ********************** has no way of communicating with the driver thus leaving us stranded without our luggage. There are no checks and balances with this company. No way of even knowing where my luggage is or where to go get it. My medicine is in my luggage. I have ridden Megabus for over 10 years and this has never happened. I want a refund on my ticket along with them finding my luggage! This is a travesty!!
