Tried calling the customer care No., but its of no use, no one care to pick the call only a computerised tone says all are executives are busy attending other calls please wait I have been doing this for last 3 to 5 days no one picks the call only my amount gets deducted from my balance after all waiting for 10minutes.Worst Customer Care facilities. OB:OB13122988 Amount :Rs.574/- OB:OB13123113 Amount :Rs.574/- transaction date is 16/09/2014Still how many days you need to credit my money to my account? Do the needfull at the earliest. Email:[protected]@yahoo.co.in

I booked my ticket more than a week back and it was a failed transaction. OB13053917 I sent a mail and there was no reply. Then when I called they told it will take 3 days and it has still not been credited. Whenever I call the line is busy or it is connected/diverted to some one who never picks up. Or else the person speaks rudely. The staff need to be taught how to speak to customers. We lose money in a few minutes but it takes more than a week to refund it. So we are also angry and we can also lose our temper. The money needs to be refunded as soon as possible. Very unprofessional behaviour from the KSRTC people. Please refund the money soon.

We have come across many cases where in the conductor will not allow us to get in the bus because we carry monthly bus passes. They treat us like free travelers. This is a day to day complaint from all the KSRTC bus travellers. We are all Government employees travel from Bangalore to Kunigal daily. Many a time some of the conductors will not stop the bus at Gurugunta palya even though there is stop here. some times they stop the bus but will not allow us inside, because we carry KSRTC monthly passes. Mainly Hassan, Chikkamangalure and Bangalore depot busses causes this problem. We have started to note all the bus numbers who create this type of problems and want to update in this portal and will be sending the a written complaint to the Minister concerned with a copy to the media. I request all other commuter who face this type of problems complain in this portal. The conductor of KA F588 date 16 /09/2014 has not allowed to travel to Bangalore from Kunigal. I want you to take necessary action on the conductor.

The driver of the KSRTC Vaibhav Bus No: KA01-F-1374 plying from Davangere to Bangalore was passing by the Navrang theatre bus stop located at 19th main road, Rajajinagar, Bangalore at around 12:30-12:45 PM. I was riding my bike by the side of the bus and suddenly the bus overtook BMTC bus dangerously without any turning signal or indicators. The bus was driven very rash without any care to other fellow motorists. When I objected to this rash and negligent driving, the bus driver and conductor were arguing that they were of no fault. Here, the conductor got down and started to yell at me and said to file a complaint if I wish. Is this the attitude towards fellow motorists? When a voice is raised is this the treatment one gets? Please take necessary action on the driver as well as the conductor of the said bus at the earliest. This matter has to be taken seriously as similar type of situations can be avoided in future. With regards, Santosh N [protected]

Respected Sir/Madam, This with reference KGF Bus no. 074716 09/Sep/2014 11:40:22 hours. Doc no: 7931. I, Sriramakrishna H S with Mr. Madhava R travelled from Narasapur to Bangalore on KSRTC bus on 09 Sep 2014. While we reached corporation, we were suppose to get down from the bus. Mean time, the Conductor in the bus asked me for tickets... Actually there were no reasons like change returns etc., Though I gave him and asked why do you need tickets? In returns, using singulars.. He asked why do I need the tickets! His attitude was very rude and too unprofessional. His language culture was again very cheep and he never wanted to give back the ticket/apologies. He kept on the argument and abused us with bad words. Point here is, we all know and it is also written on ticket that, "Not transferable". But this conductor expected us to return ticket steal the public/government money! Over and above, when we questioned... he is not ready to give-up. Very unfortunate and a bad experience of mine. I wanted to bring to your notice and appropriate actions. I am also dropping a note and all these details as an escalation to Mr. Ramalinga reddy and the Transport minister's office. I can be contacted on [protected]. I am also waiting for a response and my mail ID: [protected]@gmail.com. Thank you.

Refund of Ticket Dear Sir, Greetings, I am the resident of Devahahalli Town and I am working in O/o CPMG, Karnataka Circle, Bangalore-01 as Office Asst. I am a Daily commuter in KSRTC bus Devanahalli to Bangalore and back (Maharani Science Collage).. Today I got into a KSRTC bus at Devanahalli (Reg No: KA 40, F706 Chickballapur Depot) and I took ticket to Bangalore for Amt. 42/-(ticket No: 034960 dated 10.09.2014 time-08:13.22). Instead of giving change for Rs. 100/- by conductor, he wrote Rs. 58/- on ticket and said me to collect the change while getting down in Bangalore. But when I asked change near Mekhri Circle, he refused to give change and said like collect at the getting down stop. then again I asked change which was due to me at the time of getting down well in before. But then also he refused to give change and said me to collect the change while getting down at majestic. As I am government servant and I need to attend to work on time, it was not possible for me to go me to majestic to collect the change. I conveyed the same to conductor also. But he acted like speaking with someone on mobile and asked driver to move. Then I got down from moving bus. He used unparliamentary words which he should not have used such a language with a passenger. He also abused me stating that I can go complaint to anybody, he is not scared of anyone. This is not the way how to behave with the passenger. Please reimburse my due amount and direct the conductor to have good approach towards passenger. If immediate necessary action is not taken for this complaint it may motivate me to approach Customer Forum against your esteemed organization. Hope you understand my embarrassment and take needful action.

Dear Sir, Actually I was a fan of Services provided by the KSRTC, but was surprised to see the rude and inhumane behaviour of the conductor of the Airavat (Ernakulam to Mysore ) on 08/09/14 PNR : J45139424, Journey date :08/09/14, Trip Code : 1900EKMMYS, Bus Number KA-01F8434, Depot -MYSORE RURALDEPOT -2, Crew MOBILE No:[protected]. I have booked to and fro ticket from Mysore to ernakulam and vice versa ticket for my wife and two children's aged 7 and 11 years, Concincidentally to and fro they travelled in same Bus. While travelling from Mysore to Ernakulam there was no issue. While returning from Ernakulam to Mysore the same conductor refused to allow all the three passengers inside the bus till the new full ticket is not taken for my daughter . According to him old ticket will not be considered and need to be cancelled and fresh full ticket need to be taken for my daughter as she is not appearing less than 12 years, he refused to see and believe the Date of Birth proof carried by them . My wife was not in a position to pay the amount demanded by him but there was no option with them at that moment other than accepting his demand, after around 15 min argument and negotiations he collected 341 rupees from my wife out of which he issued ticket for 241 Rupees only.(I am not clear whether he collected Rs .100 without ticket intentionally or retained by mistake. ) I am still not able to understand on what basis he was demanding for full ticket amount of 700 Rupees .Even fellow crew member and nearby Bus crew members also tried to persuade him but he was adamant, Is there is no clear rule Book and training provided to Conductors . Does he don't know less than 12 years is allowed with discounted fare, He don't know the basic humane behaviour especially when the ladies are travelling alone, I request you to take strict action against the person who is spoiling the otherwise good reputation of KSRTC .And request you to refund the amount collected by him as my daughter is only 11 yrs and 8 months old or change the rule books as per conductor understanding, according to him whoever studying in 6th standard require full ticket, . This is to avoid the inconvenience and Insult to the passengers while travelling . Please settel the amount as early as possible otherwise I will not be left with any choice other than settling it in Consumer court for refund with Compensation for getting insulted and defamation .
