Bangalore Metropolitan Transport Corporation [BMTC] — conductor refused to give balance amount

Dear Sir/Madam,

I would like to file a complaint against a bus conductor who refused to give me my remaining balance amount of Rs.5/- only because one of the Rs.10/- note out 2 happened to be torn that was given to me by a bus conductor today morning.

I work hard for every single penny and if I travel in government bus doesn't it mean that whatever the bus conductor says I just need to bow my head even if he steals my money. What kind of government rule is it for BMTC BUSES.

If a passenger does not have petty cash change like 2 or 5 Rs, he needs to sacrifice his hard earned money? Is BMTC expecting passengers to beg to arrange for 2 or 5 Rs change? Does BMTC think passengers are very jobless so they need somehow arrange for change. Or Does BMTC thinks passengers are all fools so bus conductors can cheat them anyhow.

I want a justification and my Rs. 5/- back that is my hard earned money, it not for charity.

I believe the bus number is KA 01 F 4758, when asked the bus conductor's name he abused and denied to give his name.

I boarded the bus at around 5:35 pm, I believe it was MF6 or 201 not sure the exactly. But that bus was going to Indiranagar. I'm sorry I could not take proper pic of this bus because the conductor asked the bus driver to quickly drive.

Dear Sir,

Your complaint is registered and forwarded to concerned depot authority to take action in this regard and your complaint docket number is BMTCC10235777 for your future reference.
Further this is to inform that it is the responsibility of passengers to provide appropriate change for the ticket since conductors are not provided any amount for their duty. They have to circulate the change amount among passengers only.

Regards,
BMTC

So do you expect passengers to run around for 2/-, 5/- change when he just withdrew cash from ATM especially during the rush hour while going to work? I told the bus conductor that I have only 100/- note and all he says is you need to arrange for change for 5/- otherwise he can't do anything. What sort of service you guys are providing? This is seriously ###...

According to your so called "government rule", you don't care whether passenger needs to run around for the change in peak hours and if he is not able to give that exact change then he needs to forget about the remaining money?

No wonder the government is so worse. You guys are the most respected thieves... stealing innocent citizens money. You people should be awarded for giving such Noble service you do to the citizens.
