Other than the golden child N6, NICE buses are ridiculously infrequent. Most buses run every 30 minutes outside of rush hour. Furthermore, buses are often late. And when buses do arrive, they're filled to capacity. The only good thing about NICE is that it's fairly cheap. You can travel from Jamaica, Queens to the Nassau-Suffolk border for $2.90 (you'll spend all day doing so). MetroCards are accepted on NICE. And with that said, if it's possible, avoid using NICE bus. read more

I wish someone would come and take over the NICE Bus company from its current owner. I honestly have a strong feeling he or she will be resigning soon. They keep hiring incompetent people to drive these routes. The buses are constantly late, yet they continue raising fares like the service is improving it has to be a joke. And these so called "5-minute stops" that conveniently make people miss their transfers are beyond inconsiderate. Passengers are tired of the poor management, lack of accountability, and no real improvements being made. I truly hope ownership changes, because it's clear they do not care about properly vetting drivers or fixing the ongoing issues riders deal with daily. read more

I'd rate them zero stars if I could, I was waiting at my stop which is an N24 stop and not a drop off only stop and the driver refused to let me on, the Nassau busses are hardly ever on time and the drivers are extremely rude. You don't like your job, quit. read more

It's for the NICE MINI , their manager is terrible! He has a smart mouth for no reason and he don't know how to actually provide customer service. There's no reason you have attitude when it comes to customers asking about the booking time of the nice mini read more

NO STARS. THEY DO NOT ANSWER THEIR PHONES!!! How can I make a reservation for ABLE (I am disabled)when they leave the message "All of our representatives are busy" whenever you call! Doesn't matter what time the call is made. read more

N6 bus why the hell the driver didn't stop the bus, I was standing and waving my hand so that he can see me but that mother fucker din't stop, the bus was at 1:40 somthing. I know when we are not in the stop its a different thing but I was in the stop waiting for the bus before 5 mins he show me and the bus was not on the side where it was saposes to, instead the bus was at the middle of the road, why soo. Is the Nice Management they can't train them well or they can't manage the rules and regulations properly. For that perticular driver always I have to walk. very much shame for Nice Management to hire such driver for there bus. read more

Nassau Inter-County Express - we pay fares why we have to face problems all the time we pay then you guys get your salaries - Public Transportation Near Me - Garden City, New York

1965 This bus number is express but the driver who drives this bus touched me in the morning and in the afternoon is a man who does not respect, he should not work in this company, we are paying for a service not for them to insult us, this man thinks he is the owner of the company, he told me everything, I had to get off the bus and do a local service and that man harasses women, I have seen him with women, it is something else .so I ask the owner of this company to take action on the matter because then they say that we are the ones who are bad with the drivers just because they have the law that protects them does not mean that they are going to insult us, we are paying for a service. read more

The Nice gomobile app doesn't appear on every phone. Even if you have Google play store. I have a galaxy A35. When I asked customer service they said it was a small error that should be fixed that day. They never responded after I reached out again. read more

Seriously fucking sad how the bus doesn't even arrive on time it's always to fucking early making my husband miss his fucking train ride to WORK, my question is why THE FUCKKKKKK are the drivers not arriving on fucking time it's always early 5/10 minutes fucking early if the bus stop is for 9;30 why are your driving passing and leaving the stop at 9;20 its fucking cold to be waiting 30 minutes at the stop because we don't know what time your drivers decide To pass. how is that fair to anyone ? Real fucking shame. read more

I hope a news channel or regulatory agency looks into this fraud company. The buses never come on time, never! And the bus drivers are beyond rude and no one from Nassau Inter-County Express or Transdev (who owns NICE buses) do anything to fix it. I've tried calling the information lind to file a complaint regarding a bus driver and they will NOT answer my calls. It goes through and they hang up. They're crooks and I wish people would boycott this terrible company. read more

Worst service ever. Unreliable. Never on time. Rude drivers. Dirty buses. All the complaint and negatives you can think of probably applies to this company. What's the point of having a schedule when you're consistently late for 30 minutes or more. Extremely unfair to daily rider. read more

0 stars! Terrible service. If you thought MTA bus drivers were bad, just wait until you have the displeasure of riding with "NICE" drivers. They should change their company name because there are no nice bus drivers. NICE still does not have OMNY scanners installed on them, so passengers get stuck knowing what to do. There is no assistance from the bus drivers. All they care about is "fare evasion." People used to using OMNY get baited and switched when needing to use NICE buses. I was traveling with someone that has OMNY and silly me, thinking the buses updates their archaic lack of electronic payment method, told the person that I think by now they have OMNY. WRONG! So, I was able to board, but she wasnt because the driver decided to be a jerk. The driver offered NO assistance in how to be able to pay and was just overall nasty. He didnt even announce the stops, so I almost missed my exit. The NICE website doesnt offer any way to pay electronically. The bus line is the worst in the city with the worst bus drivers. read more

If she was the NICE bus line, I'd say she's just not that Inter you. Because this bus service seems to be just not that into being on time, or nearly on time, or sometimes even showing up, or providing a reliable service. I don't like taking about buses, much less riding on them, so I was pretty dismayed when die to a car issue while staying in Hicksville and Huntington, I had to ride this bus about six months ago. It's not too comfortable and definitely doesn't come on time in either direction but I guess it was just about better than not being able to get where I was going. read more

the bus schedule is ridiculous. like nobody checks it or what is going on? I am waiting it for an hour already. 3 buses came for an opposite direction and mine never arrived. who is responsible for this?????? read more

Avoid the bus at all COST. If it's to avoid paying so much for the Lirr subways etc then completely understandable but if your just getting on here to get off n 2-3 stops just walk please . The bus is ridiculous I'm just here cuz I'm getting my car soon so just to save money cause Uber is RIDICULOUS but enough about that can we bring awareness to these bus drives very disgusting can't even crack a smile like I chose there career ?!? You work for the state pretty sure you got a lot of benefits . The bus doesn't stop for no one and when. It does it stops for like 10 minutes very rude read more

They never run on time, the "live" app never reflects reality and on a rare occasion when the bus shows up, half the time it will just drive past you pretending not to notice when you are waving from the bus stop for pickup. So unless you are really desperate - avoid at all costs read more

I'm an very upset with the nice bus service this morning. I just got off the n23 bus which picked me up at 6:03 at hillside and willits ave, and dropped me off 6:25 bus at the st Francis hospital in Roslyn through out the ride the bus driver kept skipping multiple passengers stops. He missed mine and had me afraid for my life I had to get off the bus in the middle of no where and walk back one mile in the middle of the high way with my flash light on. I'm in an essential worker and I was extremely afraid because a lot of wild life are in the woods this early morning. I am very upset and heart broken by nice bus service this morning. I wouldn't wish this disturbing experience on no one. read more

We really need a zero rating in Google because even one star is misleading. I'm 54 years old and was raised with manners and upbringing. No matter how early or late you go on these bus the drivers are rude disrespectful and antagonistic. You are going somewhere and these drivers want you to leave in cuffs. These drivers have severe mental health issues and they sit behind a steering wheel behind a baracade to take their frustrations on Passengers instead of paying for therapy. There are about a handful of drivers who are very pleasant courteous and helpful. There isn't enough space to write down my horrific traumatizing experience driving as a passenger on this bus. This is what happens when you don't have a choice. These drivers do whatever they want because they can. read more

I take the N4 back and forth to work everyday for the past few months. I live in Queens so I'm not used to the Nassau county bus, and I must say it has been a horrible experience. I thought the MTA was terrible but not only are the wait times horrible, I've once waited 40mins for a bus, but the bus drivers attitudes are by far the worst I've ever experience. I'm not sure if they are underpaid and overworked but something needs to change. it motivates me to hurry to get a car but I shouldn't have have to feel like this and I'm a paying customer read more

Drivers with attitude, grumpy, unprofessional and arrogant at times. I guess with a crappy personality, you can easily find a job at nice

2020 Nassau County bus the guy for the n21 to glencove from great neck is a total asshole it's hot asf and he was very rude when I didn't have enough fair I mean I gave what I had the bus company gets enough money don't put people thru this type of shit its hot and not right shame on you . And this bus system read more

Trying to get home at 4:00 am today and the bus driver just drove past me, this is ridiculous.

N buses are the worst bus service ever i have seen in my life. Sometimes, the bus left early and sometimes they come late, but they never come exactly on time. I take n22 from Hicksville which suppose to leave at 6.05pm and it should reach mineola at 6.50pm but it always comes late and because of that, i miss my second bus. Sometimes, by any chance if N22 Mineola comes on time but then second bus(N22 Jamaica) leaves early. It's really annoying. I would never recommend any friend or even enemy to take NICE buses. WORST BUS SEERVICE EVER! read more

I don't even want to give them 1 star. The NICE bus is so horrible, and it's so inconsistent. I am a college student that needs to get home on time to pick her sister up from the bus stop. But at this point, it's faster to run all the way to great neck than take this absolute crap of a bus. There's no point of the transit app because it's so inaccurate since the bus drivers don't care about other people's time. One time, I was waiting at the stop to go home, and the app said 6 minutes. I obviously knew that it wouldn't come on time so I was mindlessly waiting, until I saw the bus coming. I got my card out and walked near the sign to show the bus driver that I was taking that bus, but he FLIPPED ME OFF AND JUST DROVE PAST ME!!! I ended up taking the train because it was faster to ride the train than waiting 20 minutes and then another 50 minutes to get home. Another time, I was running over to the stop with my mask on, and before I got on the bus, I put my mask halfway down to catch my breath, and went on. The bus driver told me to put my mask on, and I told him I would, and as I was trying to pay, he prevented me from paying! So I thought to myself, maybe he saw that I was a student so he just let me through, how nice! I was wrong because the next thing I knew, he was demanding me to pay. YOU LITERALLY COVERED THE METRO CARD SCANNER!!!! But on the next stop, he talked in a nicer tone to the adults?! I think that this bus system needs to be seriously reviewed and improved because so many people, including me, to go to school and go to work. They need to improve their system and their drivers. read more

the n4 is the worst bus always late especially in the afternoon by 30 minutes which is crazy and the drivers are so rude y'all could never be MTA read more

I take the N20G almost every day between Flushing and Great Neck. The service has gotten better since they changed the route soo all old N20 and N21 buses go to Great Neck and they have buses from Great Neck for points beyond. But still there are days when the bus does not show up for 45 minutes to an hour and then 2 to 3 buses come within 5 minutes. In this age of technology how hard would it be to put a GPS tracker on every bus and let people know where the bus is on their phone app. The other issue that I have is sometime they blast the heat in a bus full of people and it feels like a blow dryer is pointed at your face. People are usually dressed up for the cold so I don't see why they need to put so much heat.Not only it makes it very uncomfortable it's a big waste of energy. I don't get what's the logic behind it. read more

I don't take the bus because it's a nightmare. I had two friends trying to meet me in Woodbury one stayed in Hicksville train station all day with it never coming despite it saying so on the schedule. The n78/n79 never seems to run! It runs from 6am til 9 am and then stops until 2pm til 5pm wtf kind of schedule is that? Ok so I tell my friends and time and time again are not able to get out here. Today was the last straw! Friend is there at 5:25pm called up the lady, friend had a photo of the schedule both said 5:50 the bus will arrive. 5:50 no bus, I call. He calls they said wait 15 more minutes. No bus. Now the 516-336-6600 number is not picking up! It's fine if you want to have a crappy schedule, it's not fine when you can't even adhere to that crappy half hearted schedule! read more

It's march 22nd 7:18am in the morning I always take this bus in the morning for work and the stupid black guy didn't want to stop he had people on the bus and he made stop at the follow stop do you think this is normal? most of those people don't like to work and still get a job where they have to deal with people common this is annoying, and most of the drivers to that, it's 7:36am and no bus have come this company is sucks read more

Note - I am presently on N32 on 9/25/2019 at 3:45 heading towards Hempstead Transit Center - bus number 1748 - A pregnant customer just told the driver that she is hot and he said "If you are hot then you can get off at the next stop and take another bus"! I understand that this is a Private Company but the day to day extremely bad service is unforgivable. And this is just one example! read more

This bus system is such a shame! Passengers wait forever for their buses, which regularly miss their schedules by half an hour to even an hour. Having taken the NJ transit buses (which are not perfect but have much more reliable schedules) for years, I'm shocked to see how people on Long Island have to deal with such a poorly-run bus system on a regular basis. Especially given the high fares. Being a public transit is not an excuse for a failed system and lazy workers! read more

bus Always always always late schedule in the morning, why? Don't like! I think bus must be change new strong schedule for 7:00 am to 9:00 am, 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm, N20g so important from great neck to Flushing, because when I finish bus then change to 7 train, if bus late then I will missing 7 express train, so sad! read more

I'll be very generous with my review, when the system works it works well especially when the bus is on time. When the buses are not on time due to weather or other reason, you can call NICE to ask where the bus might be, but they have no idea where the buses are other than to say, "they're all out there working". It would be "nice" if when you call the NICE bus company they could then call the dispatcher and the dispatcher could then call the drivers to find out where the they are. Failing that, perhaps NICE could put GPS locators on buses that would then reflect the actual location of the buses on their routes! NICE OPERATES A PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM How can they be so ignorant about delays, buses that don't show up on a route and such? What read more

NICE bus company is probably the most inconsiderate company I've ever had the displeasure of having to rely on. Both to get to work and to get to my college classes, I have to ride these buses which are unbelievably consistent in being late. Using my phone to track the bus is almost entirely useless, since buses will seemingly get canceled or tremendously delayed to the point where calling a cab is more convenient. Google Maps, Transit App, their own app, AND apple maps can't keep up with how they don't even stick to their own ride schedule. Earlier this year, a driver actually threatened to call the police on me because I didn't have my bus ticket ready immediately. Which that in itself is a problem: if you're like me and their app is (supposed to be) more convenient to purchase rides and tickets on than trying to get a metro card, then you probably know the fiasco wherein they forced users of their first app to switch over to a whole new app rather than release an update. This wasn't necessarily the problem but when you release an app that people need in order to get around...and then it doesn't work..like at all... I spent the whole night before trying to input my card info and make an account and do all sorts of ridiculousness and it just wouldn't work. It was crashing, freezing and not accepting my card. Emailing and attempting to reach customer service was useless and to this day they haven't responded to me. So of course, the following day I was still trying to get my mobile tickets on my phone. I forgot about it until I opened the app and realized I still didn't have any rides purchased. The bus starts pulling up (late, of course) and I ask the driver if I can stand next to him and show him the ticket once I have it purchased and activated. He said yes. Two short stops later and I'm getting threatened, cursed out, and ultimately forced to tell him to calm down then just stepped off the bus myself. To this day, I'm late to work at least two or three times a month because of bus lateness or the bus simply not showing up at all. read more

I didn't think it could get worse than LI Bus. Be careful what you wish for. Publicly funded and privately operated, they both point the finger at each other. Service is unreliable. Buses often don't show up, and at 1:40 in the morning that's a long wait until the next one, which you know will be overcrowded and late. I once waited 47 minutes just to get on a bus at 7:15 in the morning (while seven busses bypassed me), only to have the bus driver hold up the full bus because one person didn't have her fare ready. Like this company doesn't have more problems than $2.75? Everyone is miserable, fights are common occurrences. This doesn't exclude bus drivers either. Veolia logic: declining ridership causes service cuts. Real logic: service cuts cause declining ridership! read more

This is really the worst bus company ever. There is no way that there are bus times 10mins apart even on peak hours of the morning. The N6 line is the worst I've ever took. The website will give he times of the Express service but then it will not come on time. How is that the express service last bus is at 8:34AM towards Jamaica. This is Crazy! You have customers who would need a bus for those in between times and it just doesn't work out. Also they need a website update on these times and try to be more reliable. The you have drivers who don't drive the bus well. You can step on the breaks in the middle of the street to slow down. I think they need to continuously test these drivers skills because it's not save and it's not ok to drive in a 3 car gap. ‍ C'mon NICE COMPANY DO BETTER! You have custom read more

The buses are never on time, the cost is way too high for the service, and some of the bus drivers are very rude.

If no stars whatsoever were possible, I would gladly leave such. I'm so glad that I pay half fare with my red, white and blue Medicare card. I would never pay full fare for their horrible service. read more

The service sucks, how do thoughuh have a set schedule but the buses move at there own pace or either don't show up on a scheduled time. I take the n41 to get to work and can never make it on time due to the service of nice. This line had proven time over time to be unreliable, they need to turn the buses back over to nyc, im tired of being late to mineola I keep missing my train and being late to work. Especially when I'm at the bus stop at the time on the 2018 bus schedule. And im only giving one star because they wouldn't let me post without any stars read more
