I was waiting in Indianapolis for my parents (who didn't have a phone on them since they're traveling internationally) to arrive from Chicago but the bus was severely delayed, by almost 90 minutes! However, the FlixBus tracker said the bus was on-time and in fact, in Bloomington after going past Indianapolis! I couldn't find a customer service number for FlixBus. When a fellow passenger called Greyhound (who I'm told is a partner), we were informed the same and that the driver had headed to Bloomington somehow skipping Indianapolis. This caused a whole lot of confusion for everyone around and a couple of them who were waiting for this bus went on to reschedule their bus trip to Atlanta (the next major destination on this route). Needless to say, I was really concerned about my parents' safety as I didn't know where I could even meet them -Bloomington or some other place altogether! FlixBus needs to have accurate tracking and for God's sake, a valid customer service unit available by phone.
According to 67 reviews, Greyhound received a 3.5-star rating for this journey. Travellers were especially satisfied with the staff and the ticket access, but some complained about the seats. Greyhound ticket prices on this trip start at THB 1,116
Greyhound Lines, Inc. Chicago Indianapolis recent customer reviews
Horrible. The a/c didn’t work on the bus so it was sweltering. Then the bus broke down and a replacement didn’t come for 4 hours so I had to Uber the rest of my journey to my destination.

Deshaun P.
The drivers was friendly and helpful. Loved her. The bus was old and barely made it to Indy. I have ANC headphones and I could hear the loud bus the whole way.
