Ola Cabs / ANI Technologies Complaints & Reviews

Today i booked ola share for 2 persons .
myself and my wife . one year old kid also there with us .

i booked ride from tambaram to okiyam pet in chennai .ola share shown me 195 rs for the ride cost .

i called driver and he came . when i get in to the car the driver asked why it is showing 195 rs for me ? i told him it is share drive so it is showing like this.
he landed the cab in the corner of the road and told me i have to wait for one more share booking . i called ola customer care and told them the situation that the driver not started yet and its been more than 20 min .

customer care informed driver to move to drop us . the driver started the cab and moving only 20KM speed . i asked him why are you driving in 20 km speed it is dead slow please go fast .

" i can not go as your wish " he replied . i told him " i did not ask you to drive any abnormal speed . just go in a normal speed why are you going in 20 KM speed . he said i need one more booking i can not come for 195 rs .

i told him if you are not willing to come then you should have cancelled this ride you should not do like this .
he replied " you should not ask any questions to me ask ola care what ever you want be quite in my car . i asked him to stop the car . he refused to stop and going 20 KM speed . i tried to open the door then he stopped i called ola care and informed them that i feel un secure and the call got disconnected in between .

i told driver that i do not want to continue this trip and i am ready to pay the amount ."even though we moved only 2 KM i will pay you full amount just leave us " I told to driver .

driver replied " you complained about me i can not give your luggage lets wait till the ola call you back or call them again . myself and my wife were in the middle road with our kid . it was really worst day for us .
driver again and again asking why did you book shared drive . you wanted to save your money but i don want to come for 195 rs . i dont know why ola enabled this sahred drive option and the driver shouted at me for booking shared drive. the driver used many local language bad words and told me you can not do anything

. if you want to go police go or if you want to complaint ola do it .

i am middle class and i do not have time to follow police station and complain and all . but i dont want anyone to suffer like me in future with drivers like him . now i thinking what i could have done if he locked the doors and took the car to somewhere else like his area or some rowdy area ??

can OLA answer me ?? is this the way the drivers behave with the passangers ??

another important news is "I booked UBER from the same place and the charge was only RS 112 and it was not shared drive "

i CAN say UBER IS 1000000 TIMES BETTER THAN OLA

I took a cab on 15th Sept 2016. Driver told that his mobile is not working so he didnt started my journey. And when I reached my destination he charged me 300 when I told I had applied coupon of rs 100 off then that he replied 50 rs off will be given and took 250 from me. I am a regular passenger of that route and max amount can be 150 rs.
I made a complaint that the driver has taken extra money 250rs. OLA cust care told they will refund my money witjin 3 hrs but still they have not returned.
I tried calling the driver numerous times but he did not answered my call.

I need this to be sorted out, i need my money back, its really very disgusting when driver lies and company doesnt supports us, its totally not acceptable. You should stop your service everyday we can see many people are complaining regarding your service your drive etc.

Dear Support Team

12th September 2016, I have recharged my mobile through OLA recharge app. As per mobile app it is showing I will get Rs.80 talk time against recharge of Rs.80.00. The screenshot of the same attached for your reference. But actually I got only recharge value of Rs.60. I am very much upset about this. They are requested to return my money as they are cheating general public like me through wrong information. Please take it seriously and arrange to return my money at the earliest.

Thanks,

Hi,

Some of the drivers use my number to book a drive and they cancel themselves and count their trips. This is been happening from past 3-4 months. I have daily receive a lot of sms for Ola cab booking.

Kindly take serious actions, since its irritating me to get trip messages from drivers and they cancel themselves.

Regards,
KarthickT

This is to inform you guys that on 08th Sept 2016.
I made a complaint that the driver has taken extra money 1000rs.

The Ola team is not helping me at all,
I tried calling the driver numerous times but he did not answered my call.

Today Ola says they has checked and driver has not taken any extra money.
Why would the driver admit that he has got 1000 rupees extra.

I need this to be sorted out, i need my money back, its really very disgusting when driver lies and company supports them, its totally not acceptable.

Regards

My wife with our new born kid booked a cab on 4th September with a Ride later option (@1030 pm) from Tnagar to Pallavaram.

The cab booked was mini (indica), there were 4 pax + 4-5 small luggage( can easily be accommodated in Indica).

The driver came at 10.30 and started shouting looking at the number of passengers and the luggage, he asked us to cancel the trip. We booked the cab with ride later to be sure that we get a cab. We started telling the driver that we came by same type of car and all the luggage were easily accommodated.

He started threatening my wife that he will file a police complaint, we didn't budge. We immediately called Ola customer care and started telling them the problem, they immediately sent another INDICA and we boarded and left.

I want you to take serious action on Manikandan (driver - TN22CR5245) for such a rude behaviour to a female and that too with a new born kid. I can provide the CRN number if required.

I am a customer of ola. I have rs.395 as balance in my ola money account. But today, when i booked ola cabs mini/micro, the first question they asked was whether i wished to pay money through cash/credit. When i told them that i intended to pay money through ola money since i have sufficient balance, they cancelled the journey. Though i tried to confirm the booking using my phone using the appropriate numbers, the itinerary was cancelled. Now, i am unable to book micro/mini in this city because i intend to pay through ola money.in the end, i had to take an auto to my house. It happened twice, my question is, what is the use of having a wallet called ola money? I am unable to book any further travels at coimbatore because drivers do not wish to accomodate customers who wish to pay through ola money.

The ola autodriver who took me to Anna library shouted and berated me so much. When I called him to tell my address he was already shouting. He hung up on me twice while I was telling him directions, he didn't even listen completely. Third time when he called he shouted asking where I am. I was like you have to take a left and come inside I am there. You have hung up twice. I told him I ll cancel the ride if he can't find the way. He said no I am coming. He came and shouted and ridiculed me. He was like don't you know the name of the address properly, can't you tell the address properly. He shouted at me in front of the watchmen, other auto walas and all😪. He screamed so much. Told how dare you cancel the ride. Pay me 40 bucks that my metre reads if you want to cancel. I was like you can't turn the meter on before itself it's wrong. He kept shouting and didn't let me cancel. Then he took me and throughout he kept shouting yaar. Told the same thing 10 times "You should tell the address properly, how dare you cancel, blah blah" even when I got down at Anna library he shouted and told the same thing another 3 times. 😭 it was extremely rude of him. Just because one forgets to tell the name of the apartment, it really does not mean he can ridicule a passenger amidst so many others on tge road. Being a sensitive girl, i felt like crying and my voice was quivering for which he replied, "if you cry i ll get more angry" His name is Babu auto number TN06B8798

How unmanageable and unprofessional behaviour ola have that while giving license to driver they don't have a background check and allow people's life in such irresponsible drivers.I went to Mumbai and booked a cab withCRN[protected]. The driver was highly unprofessional plus the cab condition was horrible. On highway or elevated areas the cab use to break down and brakes are not working. AC is not working.Asking about the horrible condition of cab, the driver notified saying the servicing of cabs were not undertaken and ola company asked them to remain on roads with such cabs. They are forced to take rides eventually know the cab can break down anytime. The cab was stopped by the Mumbai traffic police due to unprofessional driving and he managed the situation by giving bride. How could you people risk the passengers life by giving to those learners or in more appropriate words unprofessional drivers license to ride cabs on the road. In fact after complaints they immediate actions are never undertaken.Also the charges are too high.

It's high time when you start looking into this matter in strict devise manner and take appropriate steps.

I took a ola pool cab and was about 0.75kms away from my destination but my driver received two ride requests and he accepted them. I requested him to better drop me first which would have taken just 5 mins and then pick them up as it was making my ride 5kms longer and 25mins extra. But he continued to do in his way brazenly and ignored us. When i said that i will lodge a complaint against you to ola for your abusive and harsh behaviour he said he doesn't care about it as ola doesn't heed to any complaint while you are sharing the ride. He said he doesn't perform his duty fearing the complaints and he is not afraid of ola. I mean this is just ridiculous if ola has given such authority to his drivers to abuse and misbehave with the passengers. I expect appropriate action against him so that he get a lesson on how to behave when you are travelling with a female passenger in your cab. In case no action is taken, i have to take other legal actions against him which may involve all o[censored]s including ola as the stakeholder.

I left my wallet in an ola cab and i immediately call the driver and let him know about my wallet. but when i call him again he intentionally did not pick my call but when i complaint to ola and asked about his another number and called him with different number picked the call . this shows his malafide and again after knowing this is me calling from another number he switch the phone off again. ola customer care person was also on the conference at that time.
when i asked ola to take action against the person they did not entertain my case and said we cannot do anything.

i was carrying around 25000 cash and my credi and bebit cards and other documents as well in the wallet. i really felt cheated from both the driver and this reputed company called OLA.

THE DRIVER NAME IS BRAJESH

I have booked a taxi date 30/08/2016 from New Delhi railway station. I had also got driver details and phone no.
For about 1 hour I was continuously calling the driver but he didn't pick the phone. Unfortunately, i have to take an auto to my destination. After about 2 hours I also got my fare details INR 126 with a thanks message. What a BS. Your drivers were doing personal business also.
Driver name was Daleep and phone was[protected] car no. DL1RT 9092 wagon R.
I want you to take strict action against him. I will follow you for this.

My relatives had a flight from Pune airport on 12th September.
I booked an ola. Afroj ([protected]) White Vista MH13AX1198 talked to me and told me he would reach in 5 minutes. Next minute I received a message of cancellation of the cab.
Next I booked another cab Shankar ([protected]) iGrey Vista MH14CX3086.
Same result. On declaring the destination he too canceled the booking.
Again I booked another car. Gautam ([protected]) White Dzire Tour MH14FC2851.
He came to us.our guests boarded the car. On knowing the destination he too refused to go. HIGHLY FRUSTRATING. THEY HAD A FLIGHT TO CATCH.
I WILL NEVER TRY OLA in future.
Will delete the app today itself.

On Sept 4th I booked Ola for an out of station (New Delhi / NCR ) to a town in Uttar Pradesh a distance of 105Km. After the reservation we waited 30 min for driver to call us, he never called, when we called him he said he cancelled the trip, which is a bad experience in itself. So we made another reservation, this one like the previous one showed estimate of Rs[protected] for a 2 day round trip. The price seemed reasonable we took the trip. On the way back to the origin (New Delhi) our final bill came to Rs 5611, which is almost twice than the estimate. I spent 1 hour with Ola support, they did not budge, and started to find fault in my reading of estimate. Even the driver understood this the worst experience the customer can have and even though he understood he couldn't do much and said this has happened with him at least 10-12 times in last 3-4 months alone. Finally I had to take a stand and I handed the driver only Rs 3500, but I felt bad for the driver since his boss is going to eat him raw.

I can't wait for the day Uber starts supporting out of station rides and gives Ola the thorny stick up their xxx. It seems only Indian companies can come up with such stinkingly dishonest, rampantly corrupt means of cheating the customers. I have been using Uber for 3 years and never had a single problem, their estimates and final bill vary only 5% if that.

Ola learn something, else your days are numbered, no government ministers will be able to save you.

I booked Ola outstation on 3rd September to visit Kolad. Journey date was 4th September. at the last moment they cancelled booking because of non availability of driver. since the car was booked well in advance, they could have search for driver in advance. but they told they start looking for driver one hour prior to the starting time of journey. Due to all this we got late for journey. also on last moment we got costlier cab. also we miss the time line due to which we lost 7700 rs. of activities booked according to plant

I booked a cab for my female friend at 04.04 am from Ola app on 12th Sep 2016. ( from Dongarpada, Rustomjee global city, virar TO virar station)

pick up was scheduled at 04.08 am by driver GHANSHYAM ([protected]) Silver Indica MH12KN1182.

i was calling driver to provide exact details so that he can easily reach to pick up location. i called him many time he never turned up. we waited for him around 26 mins. but he never responded our call.

she didn't get auto as well. finally my friend had to go by walk till station. she had to go for her shoot and only because of ola she is late.

I took ride from jogeshwari east to bhay ander west I got an estimation of rs 288...and when we reached bhayander west within one hour driver's phone was not getting on so he told us to pay the estimation amount and we paid him the estimation fee I.e. rs 288 but after sometime I received the amount to be payable is 194...so plzz refund my money I.e.rs.94.i hope uh vl do d needful soon.

Please refer to my booking CRN No.[protected] & CRN No.[protected] of 01 & 03 Sept 2016.

The Cab drivers charged Rs. 60 extra in cash for parking from me whereas the same has been included in the bills. Necessary action against the cab drivers be initiated for cheating the customers under advice to me and refund this to me early
