This is to bring to the topmost attention of concerned authorities regarding the irresponsible driving and mannerless behaviour and ehtics which are considered to be of top priority for services like ola cab widely used in india, especially in the night, with lonly woman or rainy season. Needless to say the drivers must be properly trained by your company certain ethics and manners where the top priority must be the safty and security of passengers..

Recently i had a bad experience with your oladriver. We booked your cab for mumbai pune return 8 hours with your maruthi esteem cng used car. I noticed the following basic irregularities with your driver which needed correction for the goodwill of your company.

First and foremost is the freqent use of mobile when heavy raining at the mumbai accident prone area with lot of trucks passing by.. The driver was getting calls which he was answering with one hand while driving with other. The worst thing was that he was trying to call from his mobile phone so many times as if there is some emergency. My question is that is it allowed risking the passengers life and is there any check list from your side.

Second thing was that the driver used to eat chips all the time while driving. Is there any etiquette or checklist to check this bad habit from your esteem company.

Third thing was that for filling cng gas about 1 hour valuable time was being wasted which he could have done before had there been proper management and proper guidelines and planning from your so called organisation. Accordingly we had to pay for it also including in 8 hours. He was using as a time pass at the expense of passengers. Attention of your top management was requested in this regard.

We had to pay toll charges and his meal chages which i think were above what he deserved. Can the top management have the decency to check such unscrupulous, shameless drivers. Above all he had the argument for unnecessary things thinking so big by this so called 'digital smart ola driver'.

The booking id is crn [protected]. This was booked by my dad jay siyaram gupta through his mobile number [protected]. The payment method was set up through phonepe but at the end of the ride, the driver hariom pal demanded extensively for cash and my dad has to pay it. After the ride he searched for customer care number on google but wasn't able to connect to any customer contact instead he got connected to a fraud asking for bank details. This is not the expected service from ola. Now putting a complaint through app is declining the complaint. This is the worst experience i have ever had. Please have a look at this and take fair action.

I was travelled from DMS to Kilpauk by auto on[protected] and I gave Rs.93 as cash to driver Mr. LeelaKrishnan.

After several minutes I got a message from your side that the amount will be pay of Rs.93. so immediately contact your help line no.
[protected], 382068*
and explain the amount paid details. Your staff agreed and refund the Ola Paid amount. Herewith attached your refund receipt.

Now your help line no. and toll free no.[protected] are NOT working. Just a ping sound and disconnected.

Today I got a SMS and verified your app mentioning, pay the amount of Rs.93 before[protected]. Ola money postpaid balance Rs.407.

At the same time I am not furnished my KYC details.

On oct 4th, 2019, during a rental trip of 4hrs, the car was broke down after 2hrs.
I called the ola customer care number[protected] & informed about the issue.
But ola has charged me for 4 hrs rental for a trip of 2 hrs ride.

The trip was interrupted due to the cab broke down - which is not my fault, but ola has charged excess amount for this issue.

Even after repeated requests, ola has not done a refund.

I had booked an ola outstation from ahmedabad to udaipur. The driver picked us up and post 3km said that since it's udaipur and his is a cng car he will not go at 3 in the night. This entire process took half an hour and it was 3:30.
So my husband and i were stranded in the middle of the road at 3:30 am in the morning at the ahmedabad udaipur highway. Called ola executive and zero help. Zero customer grievance resolution. All they did was call the driver and ask him and get back to me with reason of cancellation. Also i was asked to pay for the 3km additionally and was charged for the same in my ola account the refund of which i'm still fighting for. Further the call with ola lasted for half an hour after which i had to cancel the ride on my own and book a new ride with higher prices. The new ride was allotted 45 min later. I had to have a word with the driver and requested him to come early. What kind of customer service is this?
No value for time?
No value for customer problems faced?
No value for customer safety when ola stranded us in the middle of the night asking us to do all the bookings ourself.
We basically lost out on more than an hour in the entire process. No compensation done. Higher price charged. No resolution. Pathetic service. Disappointing and i'll informed drivers. Never using

I took a Ola cab ride on 5th Sep and paid cash of Rs. 1407 to driver after the trip. I use Ola very infrequently and I tried to book Ola cab gain on 18th Oct and was told that there is outstanding amount of 1407 against my account. Despite paying full trip charges to driver for which I don't get any receipt, Ola wants to pay me again for the same trip.

I have also attached the screen shot for the trip which shows payment by Cash of 1407 and not sure what backend changes have been done by Ola to fleece me.

Myself Monisha and I have booked ola cab from ola app from Police station sector 39, Chandigarh to Mundi Kharar, Punjab at 14.48 (as per details attached).
After reaching at destination driver asked to pay via Paytm on given no. I.e [protected]
Name Prem Singh of amounting RS. 250/-, instead of 226/-, details also attached for both. I asked for the reason why he is charged 250/- instead of 226/- he replied because he cover more distance then mentioned.

So, I askes to pay via ola wallet but he refused nd said you shld pay only via Paytm not via wallet and then I paid from my Paytm amount RS.250 and but at d same time wallet amount of my Ola app also got deducted. I told him my Wallet balance is deducted he said don't worry it will be credited in ur account after half an hour.

I waited till yet but not received any amount.. which seems like a fraudlant activity done by your driver .

After reaching at destination khrara Mohali, I planned to go back to some other place due to some urgent work nd he was still standing der, so I askes your ola driver to take me to my destination i.e manimajra and asked for the price he said.. he will take Rs. 500/- but ofcourse it was urgent so I said yes..

Sadly, after reaching at Bus stand sector 43 Chandigarh, he said now it's 350 chargesand I will charge more for reaching at your destination. And I refused to go further and again gave him 350/-, which was too much, he didn't even booked dat on my behalf ... I was already in some situation so didn't bother and in hurry paid money to him
Also giving details of the same..

So, please find all the attachment of this ride as follows:

Ola has been tormenting me with follow up calls and msgs about clearing ola credit but they have not refunded me for the trips i did not take and for harassment by driver. These complaints were raised by me on the ola app in 2017.
I have also started receiving msgs from your end every 30 minutes. If you take up the case of ola without understanding how they treat their customers, then you will also be made to the harassment case.
Please ask ola to refund my money first.

My mobile number is [protected] and i have regularly using olacabs. On sep 12, 2019 at 8.00 pmi had booked cab at visakhapatnam. I had paid rs. 248/- and left the cab. Crn [protected].

I get one of my friend dropped and paid 500 to driver, and rest i saaid i will pay through paytm total bill, but 500 was deducted from my ola money and 500 i paid, where as bill was 720 approx.

Ola did not gave any resolution, instead putting late fees on ola pay.

I paid to driver 500 rupees and also 500 deducted from my ola money, total bill was 720 inr approx. Ola did not did any resolution and every day asking for late fees.

The problem with Ola cabs started in January, 2019. I booked a cab and the fare was Rs.298/=. The driver asked me the money and I paid him cash Rs.300/=. A few days later the Company sent me SMS regarding an outstanding bill of Rs.298/=. At that time I learnt that a Post Paid account was created and linked to my mobile no.[protected].
Since I was never in favour of any Post Paid account, I requested the Company to close/delete that Post Paid account vide my emails to them on 31.01.2019(2 mails), on 02.02.2019 & on 07.02.2019.
They just gave the computorised reply that our team is looking into the issue.
There was no comments from their side regarding my cash payment to the driver and they continued asking me to clear the dues which was not there.
However just to avoid mental agony at 73, I made a second payment of Rs.298/= for a single ride.
More than seven months had past and I thought the Post Paid account must have been delinked from my mobile [protected].
So I hired Ola cab on 11.09.2019 from KIA to Kodihalli. The Ola staff at the airport, who had booked the cab for me had told the fare would be around Rs.740/=.
Shortly after we left KIA, the Ola app in the cab became non-functional. At Kodihalli, the driver could not tell the exact fare but asked the money. I paid him cash Rs.750/= and informed the Company the same day i.e. on 11.09.2019 at 5.45PM thru email to '[protected]@olacabs.com.
There was no response to my email and a few days later Ola cabs sent me SMS to clear an outstanding bill of Rs.743/=.
I do not know why they impose post Paid account when the passenger is not willing for the same.
On September 13, 2019, at 8.47 AM an email from Ola Support suggested me " to stop using the platform, uninstall the app ". And the same was done.
But they continue sending SMS to clear the outstanding bill of Rs.742/=.
They could have checked with the driver and their(Company's) accounts whether Rs.743/= were deposited or not.
An email from Ola Support on October 8, 2019 at 7.48 PM said, they can not the due amount on my account and advised me to clear the outstanding. They would refund this amount in the form of a voucher code or Ola Money wallet.
Since I have decided not to hire any Ola cab in near future, till the matter is settled, your voucher or the Ola Money wallet is useless for me.
I request Ola cabs to delete the outstanding bill, which is not there, or come to Bangalore Urban District Forum.

I booked ola cab on 12 oct 2019 from igi airport to haldwani. The car was swift dzire up16t2871 with confirmation id crn [protected]. The driver named pawan kumar at the time of booking the fare displayed was 5225/- but at the time of end of ride it was 6625/- after paying each toll and taxes driver took extra 365/- of parking charges of airport. Driver was continuously on phone at the time of riding, he took extra route at time of exiting delhi and ghaziabad by telling that traffic was too heavy at the usual one. He took local street inspite of good highway in midway after requesting him alot he finally back in the highway. Many times drived wrong side by saying i have to fill cng which makes more kms than usual one as it is 290 km and it shows 305 kms. Driver is also having malified intention as i am with my wife and infant child, when my wife is feeding baby his gestures made us uncomfortable many a times i also wanted to stop ride but the timing is so odd that want to reach home as soon as possible. I also gave feedback at the time of eating and also to customer care but no output received. My humble request is kindly look into this.

My son booked a cab for me, my wife and daughter from Bhandup West to Ambegaon Pune on 15 Oct 2019 by making advance payment. He went to USA. Cab and cab driver details were not sent either to me or my son. Cab came after so many calls exchange and dropped us at destination. However surprisingly enough, my son was charged extra RS. 1000/-. My son told that bill showed 255 Kms whereas from Bhandup West to Ambegaon Budruk distance is 155kms. Driver has cheated us.My son being at Amsterdam cannot make call. There is no customer care no. of Ola.Available numbers are either wrong or incoming calls whereof are disabled. Our CRN No. is [protected]. We are helpless. We don't have mobile no. of driver or ola customer care. We want refund of RS. 1000/-. Please help us.

Please see attached the breaking of the charges ola cab has applied for my outstation ride thoroughly. I have charged for 236.72 km, although i have only travelled for 75 km as after only the 37 km of my outstation trip, we have to return back to pickup location due to a medical emergency.

It is totally unjustified that i have to paid for additional distance 162 km (Which i have not travelled in reality) and additional time fare for 1 hr as this type of situation or, delay may happen if there is any road accident on highway or, any medical emergency.

Also as per ola outstation policy the rider should be charged for the base kms as shown on the app before confirmation of the the booking if the outstation trip is not complete or, cancelled in middle.

But they have charged me the base fare as well a very high additional fare.

The ride was taken on 24/09/2019 where double payment was debited by my google pay upi. When i raise a complain regarding that on 1st october they said you will get it bavk in within 7 days but the amount not recived mailed them all the details regarding entry like scareen shot of google transcation and bank statement also but till now the refund has not been given to me
The complain number was[protected] which is not resolved till now.
Just want to inform the ola support about that i will going to file case against them in consumer court regarding therir behaviour and mental torcher.
Going to put this complain on all the desk.

Hi everyone,

In the moth of june 2019, i have used ola post paid services two times. For the first services i had paid the money. For the second ola post paid services i didn't cleared the amount, untill ola gangsters forced me.

{ in june month for the second service availing period, for a ride i had paid a cash of rs. 592.00 to the driver, in parallel to this the ola post paid serviceshas deduced the same amount from the post paid wallet.
I have got several calls from your ola team, to clear the amount. Every time i request them to do the settlement of the amount then only i will be clearing the balance amount. Non of my request get entertained by your call center teams.
Also through my ola application i have raised the request of paying the cash as well as ola post paid services. This request also went in vain.

I was very disappointed from the entire ola company, they do not do there work properly and asking me to pay extra money. This is really very unprofessional.
I see message are coming to me regularly to pay the amount with penalty.

I am not going to pay a single rupees extra. As per my calculation[protected] = rs.908.00) rs. 908.00 is the due amount to from my side to pay to ola. I am going to pay only this money.
If you guys want rs. 908.00 to be paid then i am ready to pay else i am ready to settle down the things in any of the consumer court. }

This email i drafted and sent to them and ola has given me a ticket to address it - [ola support] #[protected] wrong billing for ola post paid services.
But this was a great drama from ola, cheaters as they forced me to pay the double the amount along with the penalty, with lot of mental tortures.

I would suggest everyone not to use ola serves any ways. Ola will eventually cheat you anyways.
They forced me to pay 592.00 +200=792.00 extra amount for which i didn't used there services. Therefore ola is a cheater and fraud company. Cheating customers is there prime objective.

For proof i have added all the email communications i had with ola company.

I booked and ride with ola outstation (Mini outstation - silver beat) from my location indore to omkareswar on may 11, 2019 (Cnr [protected]).
Ride fare was rs.1726. We started and completed the ride on same day evening at around 7 pm may 11, 2019.
After the ride i paid driver (Kamal) rs.1800 (Including a small bonus for him) and we closed the ride.
Now, after a couple of months i again tried to book a ride with ola but it started to ask me to pay rs.1726 of that previous ride.
Next day i submitted a support query for this to ola support and by next day i got a response from them saying,
"dear customer, we are sorry to here that. But we can't do anything to resolve this issue as this matter is of ride older than 48 hours. We really hope you understand.in case of this kind of situation please let us know when the driver is around you."

What a great response from support!

Still, it fine if they clear this ride out or close my account and delete my details from their servers as per data safety norms.

I used ola cab app and there is one feature coming in it ola postpaid money they give me 500₹ and not telling me anything about it that you have to pay it in future or anything just give me that so i used it i think it is any kind pramotion money or anything else after consumption of all money they start messaging me to pay the money and. After few day amount is increases day by day and i have complaint it so many time to them but they didn't give any response now they start threatened me by messaging these messages

"hi, legal action might be taken for your unpaid dues with ola. Please use the link to clear your bill on ola: https://olapay.page.link/AH2H. ignore if already paid"
So as you can see this what kind of messages they send me every day
This is all about it pls help me sir i don't understand what to do with them
