Traveled from sagara to bangalore in ka42, f1532, ksrtc bus on 1st nov.2016. I did online ticket reservation from ksrtc.in and i booked seat num.25 as window side seat, while booking time it had displayed as window side but after on boarding the bus seat number 24 was window side. I compared with the few other seat also it was also mismatching with the seat layout of online and actual seats inside the bus. Please do the currect way of representation as soon as possible.
Best regards

    This has reference to the ksrtc bus : pnr :j61342552, journey dated :28-oct-2016 23:32, trip code :2313bngsmg, bus number :f1233, depot :shivamogga, crew mobile no:[protected]. happy journey.

    When i called at the time of departure, i happen to hear that the allocated seat no. 25 was given to someone named mamatha and the above crew asked me not to wait anymore for the bus that too after 2-3 hours of continues follow-up. it was a bad journey in the middle of night 1.30 am, i happen to board local bus to my destination
    Request you to refund my unused pnr as it was totally misled by ksrtc personnel.
    Thanking you

      Hi, i had booked online for KSRTC services from bangalore to sringeri and the trip code and departure time while booking shows as 22:53 from Govardhan theatre, yashwanthapur. when i got the confirmation slip and SMS to my mobile the pick up time shows as 21:53. when i called[protected] directed me to call [protected] then they directed to [protected] but the attendee of this phone number was too rude and disconnected my call without answering my query. this way KSRTC attends the customers.

        Dear sir,

        I had booked my bus ticket at Mantralaya on 20.10.2016 for my journey from Tirupati to Mangalore on 23.10.2016 for two persons in Airavat Club Class. I had paid Rs. 4140.00 at Mantralaya vide
        PNR No. J61212406/ tkt no. 41432236. Whereas the ticket fare from Tirupati to Bangalore is Rs. 520.00 and from Bangalore to Mangalore is Rs. 840.00 in Airavat Club Class. Hence I was charged an excess of Rs. 1420.00 at Mantralaya centre. Kindly refund the excess amount charged to my following address at the earliest.

        My address:

        PNM Ramprasad
        Flat No. 105, Richville Apartment, Bejai New Road, Mangalore-575004

            This is not the first time! We pay a amount for student pass and the drivers dont even stop the bus in the respected govt bus stop even if we hand signal! KA-18-F-617 must be informed immediately orelse the public will surely take action! These govt bus drivers and conductors dont even bother about picking up the passengers. They should not have a monthly salary, instead they should have a salary for the daily collection they make in the trip. Atleast they give a stop! 1 or 1 times can be tolerated, but all times that cannot be tolerated at all! Govt bus KA-18-F-617 immeditaley must ne taken into action the driver and conductor of this bus soon be brought into notice orlese we public itself will stop the bus and will inform the driver and conductor!
            Hi,

            I have selected Kannada in Ksrtc website. Initially, it will come in Kannada but if you click on any button at the top, English will display. Have not you gone through the website before you are releasing to the customer? This shows how much govt is negligible. For name sake, website is in Kannada.

              Sir
              I travelled to mysore from blore airport on 15th oct by 8 30 am bus with lot of expectations and enthusiasm.
              I had heard about flybus and it's facilities.
              But was utterly disappointed as there was not a single more facility than regular volvo.
              They stopped near a hotel and asked us to buy refreshments!!
              Too disappointed.
              Bus also was not in good condition!!
              And the charge was not a penny less than the flybus.
              I just adviced all my friends not to venture into flybus anymore
              If you have any reason please reply.
              I don't expect a reply too
              If possible please refund my ticket.

                  As my sister studying in mysore, she need to travel daily between mandya and mysore. For this reason she is dependent on ksrtc buses. She have yearly pass and paid complete 1030/- amount. Everytime when she is about to board a bus from mysore bus stand towards mandya, conductors behave very rudely saying that "these people simply board the bus coming by holding a student pass". She felt seriously frustrated by this behaviour. Why she need to get scoldings from them when she is paying all the stipulated amount prescribed by the government. Kindly consider this as my request and take the necessary action.

                          Ka01f9263, on bangalore mangalore highway near sahyadri hotel around 4pm.

                          The driver does not know lane changing behaviour and road sharing sense.

                          Due above skill deficiency he almost hit my car twice.. I escaped the accident twice because i am a deligent driver.

                          Hope you teach your driver road sense and save people from roaf accident.

                          Thanks

                                    We have been costed 480rs per ticket for airavat club class. Suddenly in the time of journey they provided normal ksrtc bus which price costed around Rs. 300.

                                    Please help us to refund the rest of the money.
