First he came late by around 40 min and he came in some other cab and told the reason that his car ie white manza having some problem. After he started somewhere around 12 km from the stat his fuel tank got empty around 500 mtr away from petrol pump. Somehow we manages to reach petrol pump. He filled up the tank at that station and asked me to pay. I pay 3000 rs.in good faith that he adjusted in final bill. But after that his car broke down and he tries to manages the situation.in this total incident i already delayed by 2 hrs. Finally i decided to go by my own because i m already delayed. He assured he will refund the money.

I called my other vehicle and go. After that he stopped the trip and anotheri got a message for bill payment of rs. 3160. From my ola account another 500 debited.
So in total i pay rs. 3500 without trip and delayed in my important meeting by 2 hrs.

I request you to refund my payment immediately and take strict action against that driver.
Please cancel his ola account.

Expecting favourable response.

With regards,

I had booked a mini ola cab from turbhe midc. To go to vashi. I was given a cool cab. Since it was drizzling slightly and i had to reach office urgently, more over the distance was also not much, i accepted the ride. The driver did not come to the pick up point and asked me to go over to him, which upset me. I walked over to him a good 200 mtrs. When i asked him why he did not come to the pick up point, he said this is the direction we need to go. I commented that i was not expecting a cool cab since i have opted for mini, because black and yellow cabs and cool cab drivers mostly are foul mouthed and do not know how to behave. That probably riled him and promptly said he would get me a bmw, and then he kept on chattering nonsense till we reached our destination. I toook him to the basement of my office and showed him my bmw (I do own a bmw 3 series) and told him to speak little more respectfully to his passengers. This again he was not expecting and then he remarked for" your mother f... G rs 135. Do i have to see and hear all these?
Then there was a barrage of abuses thrown at each other. I feel so small because in my entire life i have never used such abusive language on any one, nor have i heard from any one; and this good for nothing worm of a man made me lose my temper and character. What i want to know is why ola sent me cool cab when i have asked for a mini ride?
The crn [protected] and the name of the driver is recannath garje. Time 1.30 pm

Ola cab driver of maruti wagonr number - up14ft 2141 started fighting at the gas station and caused a huge line at the station. He is an irresponsible person should never be permitted to drive. He was abusing the staff at the gas station amd also pushed one guy a lot. This happened at the indian oil petrol pump at the bhai vir singh marg, sector 4, gole market, new delhi.

When my trip ended driver asked for a cash saying some wallet issue and said he will mark as cash paid.

So after arguments i was in hurry and didn't wanted to waste my time i paid a cash 607 rs. Later i got the message that 607 was deducted from my ola wallet.

When i raised a issue with ola support they didn't do anything and driver is not picking up my call.
I am totally helpless here.

Have attached trip details.

Incident: on 02 june 2018, at around 11 am, myself and family were travelling from bangalore international airport to chikkabanavara (Our residence) and we opted to travel through ola and booked through my wife’s mobile no. [protected], payment opted through debit card thus receiving a ola booking reference # crn [protected]. The driver (Mr. Mahindra, mobile no.[protected] after picking us from airport and travelling for a while told us that he does not have an option of accepting money through ola money or through other online modes and insisted that we pay through cash, and further threatened us to get down mid way and book another cab if we do not agree. On my enquiry to the driver, that the amount shall be shown as outstanding in the mobile app if we don’t pay through online, he successfully convinced us that he does not have ola money / online transfer linked to him and the ola team would reconcile and reverse our amount within 1-2 working days, further he also cited other customers as an example whose money was reversed in the same way. Having no other option after our tiresome travel with children and with all due trust on ola’s service and not being aware of the everchanging ola’s business model with their drivers, we agreed to pay the cash

After reaching my residence, i paid him full cash in denomination of rs. 500, 100s and 10s, for a total amount of rs. 713 as per the invoice generated but till date the amount is outstanding.

Current status : on telephonic conversation with ola customer support on 06 june 2018, they have are mentioning that driver has denied accepting cash, while we try to reach the driver, he purposefully avoids us by either stating that he is busy or does not respond to my call. We also requested ola support team to have a conference call with us and the driver, but was firmly rejected, hence, we assume that ola is not transparent and un-ethical in their business with their customers thus engaging and encouraging fraudulent practices along with your partners/drivers without verifying the background of the drivers.

This to inform you that i have been having bad experience with ola cabs off let. Can driver chandni mondal, contact details [protected] have cancelled my ride and questioned my mother a lot and abused her too when i asked him not to question so much. This is the 2nd incidence i am facing. Kindly take care of it or else my last resort will be off filing an fir against ola cab drivers.

Thank you.

Date 8th June, 2018.

I booked a share ride in Ola and the driver cancelled the trip. Then I booked another one and that driver cancelled too. It then happened two more times. That is, four rides cancelled in a matter of half an hour. When I called the customer care, the call got disconnected.

I need an explanation and compensation for this irresponsible behaviour from Ola drivers

Hi sir/mam,

Today (08/06/18) at 3.30 morning, i was booked a cab from ola, cab number as01hc9866 and driver contact is [protected] from my registered mobile number [protected]. After booking i was talked with him and inform him that he had to pickup a girl from home.

The cab driver talked with the girl and me and told to the girl to come out from home and wait at road (Near destination) and confirm to pickup.

But after a few minutes she called to the driver many times and also i called him but he didn't respond any calls and than i have to booked an uber cab.

I am very sad through ola service as the driver promissed to a single girl to wait some another place and after that he will not respond us and i get a message for fine of rs 50 from ola as they told us we cancelled but i am not cancelled.

Please sir take a necessary action on this matter so that they never do like this with any girl at least at night.
Thanking you

I use ola cabs everyday & this is what i get? Can someone please give detailed answers? This is so unprofessional, just blocking a user's account without informing the reason?

Let's assume, even if i am at fault in using the terms & conditions of ola, is this a fool proof plan by blocking my account in not ensuring that i cannot use ola cabs again?

What's wrong ola? Too much of business & too much of profits?

This is the response i get from ola on my query to them:
Thanks for contacting ola.

""your ola account has been permanently blocked as we noticed a few ola policy violations. Therefore, we regret to inform that we will be unable to unblock your ola account.

We are sorry for the inconvenience caused to you""

I had purchased new Micromax Tab and wanted to use without sim card. Hnece was trying multiple option multiple times. During the exploration, i booked the trip and cancelled the trip 4-5 times and my device is blocked. I have already mailed to its grievance cell but no response since 72 hrs. I am not able to use ola cab and is facing serious issue as i am very friendly with OLA other than UBER. I have never used UBER and do not want to use the same hence request you to please activate my device asap.

I came to mumbai from bengaluru by jet airways at abt 23.45 hrs last night (06.06.2018)
I booked ola cab at at 23.58 n got message that mr. Mohammad was assigned to me.
Accordingly, i went to p7, ola cab pick up point as told by counter girl.
I am 72 years of age and was exhausted going up to your pick up point. When i reached there i called up mr. Mohammad and was shocked to hear when he said that he was assigned to someone else and not me.
In order to recheck, i open my tab and then found message that my booking was cancelled at my request.
My booking message was at 23.58
My supposed cancellation was at 23.59
Since i was unable to read otp i had given my tab to counter girl n she had it till she completed formality.
May i know why the counter girl cancelled my booking?
Since i was already out of airport terminal, i was not allowed to go back inside. I had to therefore go about asking people where i can get taxi. Finally i reached p4 stood in line for nearly 25 mins n take prepaid taxi.
I reached home at 1.20 am.
I believe that my booking was cancelled in order to give it to someone who paid extra.
I demand to know what action you will take for causing me so much of trouble and mental stress.
My name is prutha patel.
Cell no. On which i received messages n otp is[protected]
Destination : thane - west, near teen haath naka.

I am a frequent user of ola.. I really felt it also has a emergency help facility but what happened to the bangalore girl? This incident made me raise these complaints..
Sometimes the cab/ an auto driver is not the one who is given in the photograph which is shown in the booking details.. And they take long and inappropriate routes to charge more.. There will be different vehicle number not the one shown in booking..
They demand extra charges and fights for it if refused.. They don't agree to get their money paid through ola money.. The first question they ask.. Is it cash or ola money... What is going to be done to sort these out? We request u to provide and safe and friendly service which is really helping us in commuting now a days hoping for positive action to be taken.. Thanks

I have booked so many times ola auto or cabs.in the booking time it show low rates, in that situation showing there is no rides at this time or cancelled that rides by the owners. If booking high rates all vehicles are available and booked. This is the dis advantage of ola services. Could you provide good service the people what who expecting rates. Please understand the problem....

I am regular customer of ola daily i take auto ride from my office to bus which actually costed me only rs.30 daily. I had reacharged wallet for regular use as well. Past a week they started charging me 37 or 40 for just 3 kms is not justice, then i tried using booking from other no its reflecting lesser price than me, y is this happening u have to be same for all, infact if m regular customer charge more from and wen i try to use from my friends no its showing lesser price, this is how unjusticefully u do business. Very soon m going stop using ola if this continue, i also tried applying coupon which my friend use then to not able to apply, day by day u guys are trying to snatch money from us...

I booked ola cab for my family safety with two small kids but the driver bharath picked me from my
Hotel and driving very rashly which i feared much and stop the car and get down after the 5 miles then he slapped me saying that i abused him due to his rash driving then on he nabbed my neck and saying in kannada he will kill me by holding my neck tightly as i am non local and i found red rashes on my neck.

I am writing this because in future no body should face this problem in future as ola entertaining driver jobs for the criminal minded people.

Complaint no. With ola[protected]

I booked Ola Auto Ride on 5th June 18 at 8 pm. When I called driver to ask his location, he denied the duty. Not only he denied the duty but he started talking in very abusive language. From his voice I could judge that he was drunk. I hung up the phone as I couldn't listen to such abusive words.
Driver Details:
Madhuri Haribhau Bodke
Auto number: MH12HC4897R.

Now when I called OLA customer care and dictated the whole incidence, OLA employee assured me that strict action will be taken care against this because our company never compromises with the women safety and dignity and all. And he told me that next day I will be getting call from OLA.
Next day I got a call from OLA saying that the culprit driver has been given only warning and he will be under our close observation. I told the guy that I don't want him to just get him a warning but I want him to be punished, in any form. I want him to be punished financially or want him to be fired. But the person told that we can just him a warning and nothing else.
This is really disappointing and pathetic about Ola cabs company. If a driver is misbehaving with a lady then also that driver is more important to you than your customer satisfaction. Really Really pathetic.
Kindly help with this.

Yesterday[protected] i with my family planed to visit Puri from Bubaneswar in the evening. When I booked in advance at the portal the price shown to me was Rs.1532 with discount. And in the evening i availed the Cab no OD 02AG 6585 which is registered with you in the name Pabitra Mohan, and completed my trip to puri by 11.37 PM .

The trip was 147 km and we had talk for 134 km,

Now at the end of trip my phone showed bill of 2133 and the bill at cab driver was 2149.
