KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu Services

When will KTMB improve their services? I have been using this train since my teenage years and now I am in my 30's. To be frank the service has not improved and in fact it is much worse. The frequency of the trains definitely needs to be more reliable! We have to wait for the train for nearly an hour. This is not an express train. It's a monitor service and have to wait for an hour or more for each train. The notice boards that display the timing of each train is always out of service! Do you know how frustrating is it to use the public transport after a tiring day at work?! Seriously, KTMB needs to have more frequent trains as it's very annoying to wait for a train that long. If the service is good, m sure many people will use the public transport service!

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu service

Earlier today i bought a ticket to ipoh which is at 1.30. At the counter where i bought the ticket claimed the money before asking me which coach i would like to select. She just randomly put in the ETSplatinum coach without asking for my opinion. Now it's my first time taking the train for a long distance journey so i was quite unaware of it. Later while waiting for my train (15 mins after buying the ticket) i went back to the counter and asked if i could change my coach from platinum to silver as i was on a budget and the platinum ticket price seemed a bit ridiculous. She said i could change to silver but the money would not be refundable? What's that suppose to mean? First i don't get a choice of choosing my coach and next i don't get a refund as well? This is a scam and I'm frankly very disappointed cause my budget has now been ruined.

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu service

On 23/2/2020 (10.28am), I was asking the staff at the counter for the fare of KTM route from Batu Cave to Midvalley. Then the staff forced me to buy a KTM card instead of using token (I'm not sure that is it Malaysian must have a KTM Card, even though I'm from Sarawak, just here for travelling). The staff din't tell me Malaysian also can use Malaysia IC or Touch N Go card to top up value for the ride. Just asking me is a must to purchase a KTM card. Also his attitude is bad because I'm asking question about this, and he is not patient to answer my enquiry. Because early on I took KTM from KL Sentral to Batu Cave, the staff didn't ask me to buy the card. So I have no choice and just buy the card. Please explain this case. Thank you.

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu ladies coach is not for 'ladies' coach

KTM is proud of their ladies coach, for woman only coach. But, what did I see now? Man can comes and goes as they please. Not only that, when reprimand, they even talks back at you. I am a woman who is uncomfortable with stranger especially if its man. Its not discriminate but I once has faced a snatch and grab so seeing man makes me clam up.

I remember seeing one man who ran when guard comes up and quickly rush back to the seat. There even one man who pretends did not understand what I say both in Malay and English until another woman help me. What makes me angry and speechless is this man.

I was closer to him so I heard what he said. A young woman come and told him that this is Ladies Coach. His answer is I knows this is Ladies Coach. Then the woman said, then you should leave before guard comes and this is what he said back: "I knows it is Ladies Coach and I knows the guard will come. If he did comes, then I will asks him, Where is my seat? There is no way I am going back and forth " Yes, this is what he said word by word. Then, he proceed to asks the young woman her name, her workplace and where she goes. Even I can see how uncomfortable she was. She answer him politely but keeps on trying to ignore the man. It's likes he didn't notice and keeps on pestering her. He only stops because we were watching him. What makes me sad is there is no guard to reprimand this man.

Please do something about this! I am uncomfortable with this.

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu penggunaan surau perempuan di ktm padang besar

Pada 30/1/2020 jam 10 pagi. Seorang lelaki tua berbaku tshirt coklat telah menerjah masuk ke surau perempuan tanpa mengetuk pintu atau memberi salam terlebih dahulu.
Pekerja tersebut tidak mengendahkan hal tentang aurat Wanita.
Kami meminta pekerja tersebut untuk keluar dahulu demi menghormati aurat kami. Tiada notis ditampal, bahawa tidak boleh berehat sebentar selepas solat dhuha.
Akhlak orang islam seperti ini sangat menduka citakan.
Benarkah Malaysia sebuah negara Islam?

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu ets staff used dirty mop

We took a train no. EP9201 on 29th Jan 2020. After it rained, rain water started to seep into the coach. The ETS Staff proceeded to mop the coach with a very dirty and foul-smelling mop. The coach smelled terrible after the staff mopped it. Please advise the staff members to ensure that the mop they use is CLEAN before using it as this leaves a verg bad impression on all the passengers in the coach.

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu train services

(Untuk KTM Subang Jaya) Tolong letakkan trains route antara KTM dan Skypark dengan betul. Setiap malam ktm selalu pakai train lama sama ada train lama ets atau skypark untuk penumpang ktm p. klang nak ke kl sentral. Semasa saya turun nak ke platform ke kl sentral, jadual waktu menunjukkan waktu ktm akan tiba. Semasa saya turun, terdapat train skypark dan ianya mengatakan train ini menghala ke kl sentral. Tapi bila saya dah tiba di kl sentral, saya dan penumpang lain yang jangkakan train tersebut adalah train ktm bukan skypark dikenakan bayaran sebanyak rm10. Tolong jangan kelirukan penumpang dengan meletakkan hanya 'KL Sentral' tapi letak lah 'Terminal Skypark' agar penumpang tidak keliru.

KTM / Keretapi Tanah Melayu poor ktmb express service

I work in KL and stay in Seremban. I take the KTM Express train from Seremban during weekdays at 6.55am to reach KL Sentral. I have been doing for the past 9 1/2 years. The train service was satisfactory until January 2020. Previously it used to have only 3 stops to reach KL Sentral ie - Seremban, Nilai and KL Sentral. The train will reach KL Sentral at 7.55am. However, since January 2020, KTM had increased the number of train stops from 3 to 7. Now the train stops at Sg Gadut, Senawang, Seremban, Bangi, UKM, Kajang and KL Sentral. The train now reaches KL Sentral at 8.15am. It is always packed and some of us have to stand throughout the journey for more than 1 hour. The same is the situation from KL Sentral to Seremban. The train leaves 4 minute later (last time it was 6.14pm) and reaches Seremban around 7.30pm.

My complaint is that an express service should not have so many stops. Alternatively, the coaches in the express service ought to be increased as the number of passengers have increased. The current service provided by KTM Express is highly inconvenient and distressful for people like me
