Without much warning Stagecoach UK switched off the WiFi on most of its buses from 26th October 2020. 
In defending the move the company said: “We are temporarily switching off Wi-Fi on many of our buses. Like many organisations, we’re reviewing all aspects of our operation as we continue through the Covid-19 pandemic with a focus to make sure we can continue running safe and reliable services for you.  
“We’ve found that most customers are not using the bus WiFi, especially on shorter local bus journeys.
