Moneytrans was the only offline way to buy Flixbus tickets without getting hit with commissions. Now #Moneytrans is gone, at least in Brussels. Every Moneytrans shop in Brussels is closed. Anyone know what happened? I find no news on this and the moneytrans.eu website is access-restricted.

There is apparently no #Flixbus office anywhere in Belgium.

For a €5 ticket, travel agents charge €5 in commission. Indeed, the commission is 100% the cost of the trip in those cases. Fuck me. All unbanked people seem to be fucked by this.

Or am I missing something? Did anyone take over the commission-free Flixbus contract from Moneytrans?

Gare du midi has removed their information booth. I think that happened yrs ago but nonetheless I’m documenting that shitty move now because you can’t even get information with confidence as to whether there is a way to buy a Flixbus ticket there.
