[Resolved]  Yatra — Non refund after cancellation due to non-service by Yatra customer service

Hi,

It all started when i thought of a trip to Oooty. I have been hearing alot about Yatra from Internet and Television. So, i booked my hotel from Yatra . They told me that i will get coupons within 48 hrs but i never received the coupons from them for more than a week. Despite my numerous calls and emails, i never received the coupons. I was expecting that Yatra would call up or atleast email me with coupons or someone should have called up informing me about the same. That never happened. So, i told them to cancel my bookings via email and phone. They never registered that request. Luckily for me, one fine day the request was lodged and i got some refund back.The issue now is that they have deducted Rs 1500/- approx on God Knows what account and refunded Rs 2663/- back .i have asked them on numerous occassions about the same but they never responded back

Through this medium, i would request Yatra to look into this and resolve my case. I understand that this amount might not be huge but the key point here is there needs to be some transparency and there needs to be better system in place in Yatra to avoid further such issues.

Please can you ensure that they take care of this and i get my whole refund.

Yatra.com — Non refunding of travel fare due to cancellation of bus survice

i have book a ticket on 28/12/09 from Hyderabad to Pune for 31/12/09 (Jorney date) through yatra.com. My details of tickest are
Bus service: AP tours and travels
Yatra Reference No: CJ4JFC,
Ticket No:TBDQ87325794
Amoun: Rs 1200.

On 30/12/09 i recieved a call that bus has been cancelled so i requested them to cancell my ticket as i do not wanted to transfer my ticket to any other bus.

I tried to contact many times at Yatra.com but no budy is in a position to solve the problem.

Every time when i m calling yatra.com customer care my call is being kept on hold.

So till date i have not got my amount back.

Request u to take the neccesary action against them so that i can get my amount back.
Yatra should shut down their shop. So many big names (reliance, network 18 etc) are behind it but shame less people.

I paid approx 1.20 lakh in adavnce for mauritius trip of my friend and they asked me more money, saying fare has gone up, then I paid that then they say the category of room you have choosen is not available now, we will give you some other category of room, , 3 months of regular follow up with them and then also not getting what I paid for.

approx 150 mail and 500 phone calls I made but their attitude was - go to hell, we dont care.

even people with such big designation (co-founder, india head - retail, regional head- punjab ) were sitting idle, enjoying their so called meetings and doing nothing.

I am going to consumer court shortly to show them the mirror.

I request everyone not to book tickets, hotel or flight through Yatra
Dear Mr.Nayak,

Regret the inconvenience caused to you.We have received a confirmation from our supplier that services have not been utilized.We are now processing full refund which will reflect in your account with 8-9 working days.

yatra.com is literally taking customers for a ride. I bet their CEO is one of those corrupt ex-bureaucrats with links to the utterly corrupt aviation ministry. Now they are giving a buy 1 get 1 free offer. Consumers naturally expect that if they buy a Rs. 2200 ticket under this offer then they will get a Rs. 2200 or lesser amount ticket free on the next flight booking from their site plus some taxes. But look at the way these [censored]s scam people. They put a fine print in the terms and conditions of the offer that only the base fare will be given as discount and then they change the base fare to Rs. 200 from Rs. 1800 for a Rs. 2200 ticket from Vadodara-Delhi and Delhi-Vadodara. So they give only a Rs. 200 discount when you use their promo code which they deliberately email 2-3 days late when buying the next ticket. Plus note how their system works. For the same flight from Delhi to Vadodara on Feb 21 2011 the Indigo website is showing base fare as Rs. 1800 while Yatra.com is showing base fare as Rs. 200. The taxes on Indigo are shown around Rs. 500 while on Yatra.com it is Rs. 2200 plus. Wow! How can the aviation ministry sit quietly and allow passengers to get scammed, how can they allow travel websites to set a completely different base fare when the website of the same airline and the same flight on the same day is showing the base fare as Rs. 1800. Not only that, their customer support team are total Delhi-type lukkha people, they way they talk and back answer reeks of sniggers suggesting "oh you you got fooled by our websites scheme, no point complaining". And to add to the woes, their website cancellation page lists ticket cancel charges levied by airline as Rs. 750 when the call centre person told me the charge was Rs. 350, he said that the website is showing a "default charge". Right. Default to fool customers again, and to stop them from cancelling tickets when they realise they have been fooled the first time over. See the attached images for the complete picture. They are also not refunding the Rs. 130 insurance purchased for the flight. Now if no one is travelling on the flight where is the need to buy insurance? But they don't refund that, they cut Rs 350 (airline cancel charge JetLite), Rs. 200 (Yatra cancel charge) and Rs. 130 (non-refundable insurance) so total money eaten by these [censored]s is Rs. 680 for giving no service on a ticket of Rs. 2200. Wow! We Indians are born scammers. Jai Hind, yea riigggggggggggggght.


Going by my personal experiences as well as the wide variety of complaints on this and other consumer forums, it seems that there is no honest company left in India at all. Shame, shame, shame, the land of the Vedas and the sanatana dharma has turned into a big pile of thanks to the globalised market.
