Ola Cabs / ANI Technologies Complaints & Reviews

This ia regarding the pathetic service provided by OLA share . I took ola share from Airoli to bhandup w . there was one more passenger from mulund (E) . driver first dropped the mulund east passenger then crossed east to west bridge and i travelled entire Airoli Mulund west and mulund east and then reached my home. It tool around 2 hour to reach to my destination . it ia really painful . we normally book cab to reach faster not to visit entire Mumbai darahan. Ola should pickuo the passenger who are having same toute droped not to book blindly. i think ola should take some steps o improve their services .

I booking a taxi from vikroli to Wadala after starting the journey I ask driver to air conditioner start. He never listened. I asked one more time to driver then he said without respect calm down and wait until cool.then he said you don't want to continue this journey, you can possible to go out and you can complaint about me, I don't care. First of all I decided to going to consumer court and raise the case against driver with cab. Please do the needful.

Ola drivers have taken customer for granted and they decide whether they want to commute or not. Drivers not willing to take up trips must not be available in the radar for booking.
Wasting customers time, resources and patience. Coming to pickup locations and denying duty after knowing the destination area is not acceptable. This has become a practice and this speaks of the unethical behaviour of the drivers hired for Ola.
Causing delays to customers and expecting all to agree to their wimps and fancies.

I hired a Ola micro from MIAL T-2 on Jan 28, 2016. Ola has a pick up atP^ level.
I booked the ride. CRN no. CRN[protected]
1. The Driver's name was Muddassir Ukaye. The person who picked me up was not the same as it appeared on the receipt. a villager from Barshi, speaking Marathi. He was very well behaved.
2. I was waiting at P-6. The driver asked me to come out at the bust stop.
3. I came out and was asked to pay taxes by the MIAL staff, which I did.
4. The ride was uneventful and acceptable, although the vehicle was quite rickety.
5. There was no toll tax paid at Mulund Eastern Express highway. The driver showed the card. which was seen by the top collector and allowed to go. I have seen this during my several rides earlier.
6. I Asked the driver about it, and he mentioned that the Toll tax was paid as a monthly pass @ INR 1000 per month. He said that this pass was provided by ola (not purchased by him).
7. On arrival, I received the receipt.
8. To my chock, INR 100 was charged as P-6 charge, which shouldn't have been charged to me.
9. I was also charged INR 35 for the Mulund toll tax.
10. The receipt shows these as add ons, on which the company doesn't pay any taxes.
11. I read that Ola earned INR 135 extra...tax free.
My expectation is that Ola should stop fleecing the customers in this manner.

"There is no upper ceiling, no "conditions apply" words and not asked me to refer any link for conditions as said in your mail conversation"

They gave only 150/- cash back on my three rides instead 50% on my three rides.

Hi Sunilkumar,

Thank you for the reply.

Having checked our records, we see that you have received the offer code "HNY" for the ride taken under offer on 31st December and the offer "HNY" gives Rs.50/- discount for next 3 rides. However, you haven't applied the offer code. Hence, as one time exception we have credited Rs.150/- to your Ola account. I am sorry to inform you that we are unable to process any further refund for the same.

Please reply to this email if you have any questions. We will be happy to help.

Thank you,
Pugalyendi M

This is the reply in all the mail's received from their end.

Had a very bad experience of my last visit to Bangalore. I had hired this ola cab from Bangalore airport to Rajaji nagar. At the time of bill payment
the driver I could not access the phone and I ended up paying 900 as against the original bill of 663. I called the driver and he promised me to return back the excess charged amount but then he did not revert.
I was there for 4 days in Bangalore, but he did not revert. The amount is not concern for me but its necessary to show this things are happening.
Our HR of Siemens forces us to use OLA so we go for it, but I am going to highlight this case to them also.
I had given this feedback to ola on mobile app, but it seems they are simply not concerned.

Ola charges Peak Traffic Fare. The Peak traffic fare of 2.4 has been charged. Also the Peak charge icon is so small and in corner that customers cannot see it often. Customers are in desperate need and they have no choice to give. When there is strike by certain sections of transport they resort to this more and it is very unethical
Date of incident : 31st January
Phone : [protected]
Ride no. CRN[protected]
Charge rate : Rs 431
Distance 12.4 km
Journey time: 35 min
Time: 2:46 PM

Fair Price should be around Rs 180.
Want refund of excess fare. Charged 2.4 times normal fare which is unethical when other modes of transport were on strike.
Customer also could not understand peak fare stuff as he encountered first time and no vehicle was there.
Had to wait for long time as their Server was not connecting.
So it is entirely unethical.

I am sorry to inform you that when you were informed by me that I have to go sankara eye hospital and your driver of the vehicle also confirmed that when I rode the vehicle and when he dropped me at HAL and from that place I had to hire an auto Rik Shaw to reach my destination .I was thinking when I do go to Delhi may be tomorrow I will ride Ola but I may have to think twice now .I may book Opera ride now from sankara to my home Atik confident Sompura gate Sarjapur Road just within half an hour.
It should be sent to Ola Cabs and wrongly it have been sent to you.

I had booked Ola cab in Pune for travel between Kothrud to Ghorpadi. Initially I received one confirmation. The driver arrived near the pickup, but could not locate the exact pickup point. After sometime i received a message that my booking has been cancelled and i have to book another ride. Accordingly I booked another ride and and the driver arrived in 5 minutes.

However, the shocking part was, I was charged Rs 50 extra as cancellation fee by the other driver. This was totally unethical on Ola's part, since the booking was cancelled by Ola/driver.

We had to suffer multiple times due to Ola for that ride. First, it was because the driver was not able to locate the pickup. Second, Ola/driver cancelled our booking and we had to book another ride, thus wasting our time. Third, and the most unacceptable was charging for cancellation, though the cancellation was not from our side.

Very poor experience and I think Ola has lost a customer forever.

Today i had a worst experience with Ola Auto, when i am booking ola auto from app, i get no. After that i was refused by 3 auto walas to take to that destination, 2 didn't respond to my call & 1 cancelled, in all these my 1 hour was wasted. Finally i had to cancel my plan & return to airport. Plz cross check with auto-people before giving there no. To passenger.

Dear Sir,
I am a OLA SELECT CUSTOMER, I have OLA MONEY minimum balance is always Rs.500 in the OLA Account and also OLA Credit limit of 3000.

For last 3 days I am being asked to pay Bills after travel in CASH. I have been talking continuously for last 3 days and also mailed the problem but no body seems to care nor revert back except sending a mail that the issue is RESOLVED.

CAN anybody look into the problem and respond to me to resolve the problem.

Kind Regards,
Dr. Sumon Chakravarty

Vaishali metro station he stopped the cab about 1 km from there by saying that you can go by your self post which I told him this is not fair and I will report this, he started abusing with me and was about to beat me .. his name is Bijender Singh ( [protected], white WagonR UP13AT1149
Plz take some action against him as he is a monster and might can kill anyone

OLA is not taking care of the drivers that's the reason drivers are not taking care of customers. OLA is harassing and making false allegation against drivers and not supporting drivers and customers. OLA just fetching money from customers and drivers in form of penalty. NO Resolution!!! NO Customer Centrix!!! NO Satisfaction!!! Only Harassment from OLA to OLA Customers and OLA Drivers also. OLA will make money and will run away after spoiling everything.

This whole reduced fares on Ola is a farce. Please check the fares at the time of booking and take a screenshot because Ola has started charging much higher than the fare quoted at the time of booking.
And when I raised a complaint (Ticket[protected] I was told that there was a surge in fares and that they send notification for that.
I was being charged same fare without any surge by Uber and I just chose Ola as one of the two. Least did I know about the fast Metres or wrong fares. For a ride of 36 minutes I was charged Rs. 286/- instead of the fare of Rs. 114/-.and despite raising a concern the Ola guys have only sent an email saying your query has been resolved.
I think it's time this company will start going down because of its unethical practice.

Kindly note that the above mentioned driver is a criminal who sweet talk foreigners coming to India and swindle their money. He has cheated us with huge amt of money making empty promises and continuously threaten and harress .
please investigate and take action.
