National Express Customers

Our Vision at National Express is to earn the lifetime loyalty of our customers by consistently delivering frequent, high performing public transport services which offer excellent value. We place our customers at the heart of our business and nobody will try harder for our customers than we do.

To bring this Vision to life, we have developed our Group Customer Charter, setting out our commitments which focus on delivering the things that our customers have told us are most important to them, in every country we operate in. Each of our businesses has produced a local Charter that sets out specific commitments to our customers in that country. We will monitor all of these commitments each year and report on them to our Board so that we constantly meet and exceed our customers' expectations of National Express no matter what country they travel with us in. Only by continuing to do what our customers really want, will we deliver our Vision.

How will the Group Customer Charter work?

This National Express Group Charter sets out the commitments to our customers that will apply consistently across all of our businesses.

Each individual National Express business has a local Charter that derives from the Group Charter, which sets out specific commitments to their individual customers. These local Charters will be published in 2013, and their performance will be both measured and reported on.

You can view the Customer Charters for each of our National Express business areas using the left-hand menu or by clicking on the links below.
