i had an experience few days ago when i was traveling to warsaw and my train was delayed by 3 hours and they announced in polish language so non-polish people can not understand what is going on,so you should announce English with polish.

Traveled from Wroclaw to Warsaw first class train "Sleza" on a 23rd Nov and supposed to have WIFI access on board. Very disappointed- coudnt connect and other passengers had same experience. Train experience though was very good, new modern PESA train layout and friendly staff with food on board but WIFI access has to be fixed.

Apart from the delays (I drive quite often and it could be worse). I give a grade for the quality of travel, something terrible, noise, talking on the phone, constantly incoming messages, clicking on the keyboard, believe me, it gets very bothersome and bothersome. ANOTHER MINUS FOR THE PRICES !!!!! PEOPLE CHOOSE A JOURNEY BY CAR. LESS YOU MIGHT LESS YOU AND COMFORT PRICELESS TRAVEL :)))

Yesterday I was coming back by intercity train from Sopot (destination station Vienna). The train was 4 hours late due to the breakage of the overhead contact line! During the stop in the middle of nowhere, passengers were not informed of what happened or how long the stop would last. No replacement communication was organized. As part of the apology, the drunk waiter distributed additional refreshments. In the dining car, unimaginable crowds, dirt and a surly waitress who did not want to accept the order because "a colleague does not make". What are the standards that the service reads messages in English-like language from the card or does not know it at all? I am disappointed with the level of your services and I will not use your "offer" again.

I have been using the services of this company for many years and nothing serious has happened to me so far. The cars are clean, the train staff is nice and very helpful.
On the way from Lublin to Kielce on 7/09/2020 (9:59) I asked the train manager to increase the heat in the car and there was no problem with it.
On the way back from Kielce to Lublin on September 8, 2020 (11:59), the train was delayed a few minutes, but it was not the fault of the carrier. Railway line modernization works often affect punctuality in running. I made the trip comfortably in a nice atmosphere.

I have train delays all day today. I was to be in Lublin on 17/10 and travel a total of about 6 hours with a change. My journey has been extended today by an hour and 25 minutes :) and it is always like that. Instead of doing better, intercity goes backwards. It's only worse

It's not too bad. With delays, it's a lottery. Recently I was going to Pozna and I wanted to rest on the train. We were alone in the compartment (2 people, 1st class), but the loudspeaker from which they broadcast messages cannot be turned off or turned down. Even though the temperature was set to the lowest level, it was still heating up so much that it turned into a sauna. If it was impossible to sleep, I wanted to use electronic devices. Unfortunately, the range of the network is a failure, and there was no electricity in the entire range.

Train packed to the brim, NO ELECTRICITY (INCLUDING OUTLET) AND broken things.

PKP INTERCITY is kind of friendly And I feel here like in the times of Tsar Ivan the Terrible .

I'm really not a claimant, but you may end up being patient as you pay 80 PLN for a ticket from Wawa to Gda sk, goes in the second class in which the light does not work and the toilet cannot be flushed, and in addition it is in place with a half hour or longer delay. Drama.
A train delay of 20-30 minutes is standard. And at the central station despite the fact that the train starts on the west.

It can be different, you know. A lot depends on the purchased standard and the climate;) Comparing to bus carriers and airplanes, the speed of Wawa IC wins (yesterday pendolino WaWa - Kra - 2:18). The quality of service also increased (tea surprised me). And a wide selection of tickets for a decent price (although sometimes not). On the downside, complete unpredictability with respect to lateness, e.g. on trains from Wroc aw, do you probably have these latencies calculated? During the quarter I was waiting at the station twice for several dozen minutes for a familiar Wroclawian. In general, there is progress, but you started from the lowest level so there is nothing to get excited about.

Train from Szczecin via Gda sk, Olsztyn, Bialystok, so-called FISHERMAN, in a non-compartment wagon there are no announcements through the loudspeakers to which station the train commutes, and at 20 o'clock it is unfortunately dark outside to see anything. Passengers sit in jackets - no heating, and outside is a minus temperature. One big failure. It's good that the lighting is.

I have recently used PKP services to a large extent. Unfortunately, despite the sentiment of my childhood to train, I use this means of transport only as a last resort. The compartments are dirty and smelly, Wars are expensive roads, and trains are notoriously late. This is a scandal in our time, more so that ticket prices at Intercity are high.

They sell more tickets than seats. When we bought the ticket we had no assigned seat but it did not surprise us, we thought it was because you could choose it since they also did not inform us of what it implied. You have to go to the space between the cars, and that space is very full. Bad security for the passenger considering that our trip was three hours and was not the last stop of the journey.

Another trip with PKP EXPRESS INTERCITY PREMIUM turned out to be a pleasant surprise. The level of service, new "Pendolino" trains, service, comfort and travel time, punctuality - the WARS application thanks to which you can order breakfast or lunch, coffee or a snack, which the waiter brings to your place is a great solution. I am positively surprised and I will definitely use the services of this carrier more often now. Congratulations

Yes, I don't travel by PKP Intercity trains very often, but as it happens to me, there is ALWAYS something going on. After Christmas: 1.5 hours delay (because it's cold? But there was no cold). Yesterday over seven hours delay (because of heat and storms). And chaos, lack of information or misinformation about the final arrival, and in addition incomprehensible order of passing trains. My squad was pushed not only by Pendolino, but also trains of the same category, but with ... less delay. It's good that we arrived at all ...
Coming Intercity with a change I do not take into account connections with a waiting time of less than half an hour at all, because on my routes it is practically not possible for a train to go without any delay. I also did not find my place on the train (allocated by the Internet system), because the numbering of the seats in the wagon was incorrect. There were simply no numbers between 40 and 60 in the wagon and for a long time nobody did anything about it despite repeated applications.
The only thing that keeps me on the Intercity trains is the ability to transport pets (prohibited on long-distance buses). I give the second star for new rolling stock - I hope that I will never have to ride smelly, cold or red-hot wagons of the old type again.

Reading some previous reviews, I am saying that the statistics, however, are confirmed. Secondary illiteracy prevails in the nation. People, no one is asking you about the travel experience here. Bitter grievances write in complaints to the carrier or on consumer forums! The "West Station" office building, because it is called, is modern and fits in well with the post-PRL architecture of this part of the city. Cool for me...

European standard railway. Good conditions, good trains, beautiful. Very clean. Both at stations, in cities, and in carriages. No Wi-Fi.

You won't find such inanity, arrogance and insolent approach to "customers" in any other company. But what is surprising. Do you stand or go with a subsidy from the ministry is flying ... Honestly from the bottom of my heart, I wish this company a lot of concern for the health and life of compatriots.

Pendolino - premium transports, offer coffee in the price but as you ask for extra water, unfortunately, only one refreshment is available. Laughter in the room for PLN 150. When will you change this communist approach to people? How many years has to pass so that you start offering services at a minimum acceptable level?

You regularly extend the time of "cheap" TLK and IC trains to Pendolino.
And so from 8/06/2019, the IC406 train on the Budapest - Warsaw route will take the Krakow - Warsaw route at 3:16 where it currently defeats at 2:47 and a year ago it defeated at 2:30. Why such an extension?
Same with TLK Branicki. A year ago he traveled around 2:30 on the Krakow - Warsaw route at 3:18. Good progress. Below is a comparison. In addition, the carriage of people like cattle in TLK in particular;) shame, how would a private carrier would have been killed long ago - that's why you do not want to let it go to the market :)

Clean, fast, convenient and not always but on time. Please note that in most cases delays are not the fault of the carrier. Besides, really nice conductor teams (especially younger ones), good food in WARS, although it's not the same company: D Definitely the best alternative to cars :)

They want well, but they don't do it

Edit: not at all, I take the stars, they save on employees at the ticket offices about late arrivals, the last 300 minutes, train changes that do not arrive on time, you can ride it to work if you want to be dismissed quickly. The costs are also high

I rarely use it when I ride, I expect comfort and when you enter the toilet, it is often better to hold your breath for the duration of your stay. the advantage is, however, that there are many connections (I would advise substituting new trains on routes such as Szczecin-Zakopane)

Once a year I use the services of this company and always play tricks.
Trains are often late, after which the message "we apologize for the delay ..." even our neighbors say that the east laugh at this company, that there are no such delays even with them, and on some trains they feel at home ;-)
In my opinion the worst is the website, it is still screaming.
The exchange of tickets is almost a miracle, I tried the same effect on different phones, computers and browsers. Pages do not load or display correctly, an obvious problem with paying via BLIK.
Technical breaks supposedly from 23: 30-0: 30, but in practice they can be until later hours as in the pictures below.

In contrast to my speeches, I do not intend to assess the quality of PKP Intercity SA's transports, because Google Maps is not the place for the publication of complaints or complaints about the carrier. The headquarters itself (because here we are talking about it here) is a very modern and stylish building. It's fun to spend time in it.

I do not recommend work in this game.
They do not even deserve 1 star rating. Work here is a continuous matrix.
Dog money and treating the employee as a necessary evil. You are good and patted only when you take shitty servants from overtime planners or accept adverse changes in the schedule, because nobody wants to come to some services (nicks, holidays, etc.) because of the meager earnings compared to the pressure exerted on the employee .
Graphics usually on the last day of the month so that you can not plan anything.
Get something in the office? You are sent from Judas to Cajapha because no one wants to make a specific decision, no one knows who is there.
You learn about some things and changes practically at the last minute and you can be not informed about it sooner (the mass of errors in the plans of services and corrections). What is worse the lack of responsibility of people who do it.
Leave??? Practically forget, you have to be an invigorate and walk a few times and it is not known whether you will get it from the planner or the head. They give it when it usually suits them, which means mostly in the autumn and winter season without any major problems.
If you do not have a family, friends and loved ones (bachelor, divorcee will be great here) then this job is just perfect because it fills your entire free time without respecting privacy.
Calling in your spare time at your private number from dispatchers or planner "You listen, you would go here and here ..." is the daily bread in this company ...
In a word, the swamp with really nasty treatment and typically communist management.
It's a waste of time and nerves for this company, I advise anyone to come to work here !!!
Regards!

One star for the service. The rest is the bottom. Buying the ticket on the IC side is a nightmare. It recharges it from scratch. I bought a seat in the first class because the second ticket was not there. In the range so bad that I have to rub my legs. Generally crap wagons. sitting in the ass burns and you freeze once. The mockery and deep communism are still here amen.A phone information is already done immediately 0700.At just about 2.70 PLN per minute.

They don't even deserve a single star. All the time they are late, which they do not report, although it was known that they were late (insulated carriages), they sell tickets without a seat, they earn money for everyone. .
Even in the east there is no such mess in the railways

Currently, the Katowice-Warsaw EIC102 train. I ordered an espresso coffee from you, she said she would bring it in 10 minutes. I'm waiting, waiting and nothing, half an hour has passed and then nothing. I had to walk half a train to find out about this coffee. The lady with a great grace finally handed me this coffee in the dining car. Of course, she asked twice how I paid and wanted to see the receipt. In the end I got this coffee with great grace, without saying a word sorry

This is one big drama. 2h I'm going from Central Warsaw to Minsk. And I wonder how much I will go to Terespol. Stuffy. No air conditioner. Kaza sit in face masks. Sweat flows down the temples, back and nuclei ... one great drama. No organization. No refunds for lateness. You can't technically check the train? I rarely ride. And this often happens to me. I drive when I have to. However, it is better to drive your own car, with Klima, music and in Warsaw traffic jams than with this mess

I wanted to share my feelings about traveling on the Warsaw-Bia ystok route.

It's great that there is new rolling stock. Great, with modernized tracks, but ...

Trains are always delayed. Adding 5 (!) New stations on this route certainly did not help ...

Please, do 2 types of trains. One, direct, which would go 1.5 hours and the other, which stop every 15 min and go 2.5.

I don't know where to report it so that it goes to PKP, so it's here ...

I don't know about you, but it seems to me that this online ticket purchase system does not charge all discounts. A senior ticket with a 30% discount costs as much as without a discount. Dear PKP Intercity - if you read this opinion, answer where is the logic here (maybe I have done something wrong) so that I can change my opinion for the better.
