Misconduct and irresponsible behavior of bus conductor. First he forgot to take his ticketing machine from depot and went back to the bus station from bareilly outer to the depot, which caused unnecessary delay in departure. Then, the bus traveled only 30 kms in 3 hours, as the lights of bus was not working. the bus engine was stopped in mid way and passengers were asked to toe the bus and the the bus got started. At thana Milak befor 24 km distance from Rampur, the driver stopped the bus saying, that he can not drive the bus now as the lights of bus are not working and there is problem with the alternator of the bus. The conductor said that he will transfer the passenger to another bus which he failed to do. After one and half hours struggle, the conductor talked to his senior on mob: [protected] and the official said that deduct the fair up to that point and payback to the passenger, as he can not do any thing and disconnected the line, The driver's behavior at that time was so rude, that he did not show any interest in passenger's inconvenience, due to which the passengers had to suffer till next day, even I was sitting in office in so much tiring condition. The UPSRTC staff has nothing to do with the passenger's trouble while leaving passengers in mid way at mid night in a rainy season and took out the faulty bus from the depot which caused inconvenience to 70 odd passengers of bus and left them on mid way at mid night.
The conductor should be penalized for these misconduct, the details are as below.

Complaint marked as Resolved
Even I had faced a similar problem some 15 days back. Ticket not booked but the amount got deducted from debit card.( I presume this happens because there was just 1 seat available and by the time I made the payment, somebody else had booked it). Whatever it is, it is a serious flaw in their reservation booking system.
However, I was able to get the amount refunded into my account. Below is the process that I followed.
- Called their number given in website. Initially when I called from my mobile nobody picked but when I dialled using my BSNL landline they picked immediately.
- The guy suggested me to send a mail to their mail address with all the details of the transaction along with my bank statement.
- I sent them the mail. However, since I got no response for 5 days, I called them again through my mobile at around 4:30pm and they picked at once. I told the guy that I was suggested to send them the mail which I have already done. Spoke very politely with him and pleaded him to help me.
- Luckily, he searched for my mail on the call itself and then forwarded my mail to concerned department(Atom technologies) asking them to refund my amount.
- I got a mail same day from the department that my amount would be refunded, and I got the full amount credited to my account within 3 days.
So, would suggest you people also to follow the same procedure and see if lady luck is with you.
Cheers,
Abhishek
