I've yet to miss the service.

I'd send an email to this address enquiries@dvsa.gov.uk

Included specific dates and times of vehicles passing timing points early  (maybe use bustimes.org 2 help)

That's the whole thing ... they don't leave timing pints on time . The Banga number 5 at 1815 leaves Codsall (start of route) over 10 mins early, skips half the route and arrives in wton nearly 20 mins early so I've gone to the DVSA

Just been checking the 1830 departure from Codsall and it leaves on time but omits the loop via Bilbrook.

Yes ... he occasionally leaves a bit early and if he makes up time he doesn't wait at timing points. 

It was the 1815 I was talking about though

Yes I know, however just pointing out that he's not the only one. And the 1830 has omitted Bilbrook every day this week.

Why would you want to get anybody in trouble.

Mayfield

Why wouldn't you want a proper service

I don't but they are contracted to run a service which they aren't . Drivers smoke and vape mid journey, phones shout
