That is the first time I am very disappointed by ola cab service. I lost my train because off ola cab service. They don't provided cab service on time that's the reason I have lost my of 6k. ola please take the action My booking details: Crn[protected] Crn[protected] [protected] [protected]

The day I booked my first ride with OLA cabs was the worst day for me. I faced several problems that day. Problem 1. I have booked it using app at around 2:30 PM, I have requested them that I need it at 3:00 PM but I received a call in 5 minutes. I have also informed the cab driver that I have requested it for 3:00 PM but they have charged me for waiting time. Problem 2. The AC was not working and when I asked driver about that, he informed me that he will run AC only after service not now. I complained about that to OLA during my journey but they have not done anything. Problem 3. My wife and my little kid were sitting on the back seat. We have most of our luggage in trunk but my brand new coat-pant (worth Rs. 11000) was on back dashboard. As soon as we reached our destination (New Delhi Railway Station) I paid him in the car. He rushes to the trunk and given me my luggage from trunk, meanwhile my wife and my kid also get down from the back. I was thinking that he will be returning the balance amount and that’s why he has gone back to his seat but he immediately run away from the spot. He has not allowed me to check whether I have missed anything. Problem 4. After applying the discount and adding the waiting charges the amount I need to pay was Rs. 158, I paid him Rs. 200. Instead of giving me balance he immediately runs away from the spot. I immediately complaint about that too OLA cabs. Due to my train timings I rush to platform to board my train. When I settled down in the train I realized that I left my Coat-Pant in cab itself. Now I can relate the events, why he immediately run away from the spot. I called him and he upfront told me that as I have complained about him he will not going to return my item. I also complaint about that to OLA and they assured me to resolve my issue. I am following this case with them from last 2 months but I have not received any resolution. I have all the details about my journey and complaints so now planning to go to consumer court for this issue. I would suggest you all to think twice before booking a cab from OLA cabs. I don't know about others as I am using my office cab now. Ajeet [protected]

The Ola cab Rs 250 free ride is a total scam..today I downlaoded their app and booked and availed their Rs 250 free offer..however just 30 mins before the scheduled travel I got a call from the customer care stating that the driver has cancelled the ride and they will not be able to cater to me..I lodged a complaint and they promised me to send a replacement cab..however when I tried to rebook their coupon was showing invalid..this is all a scam by Ola cab to get people to download their app.. they are all scamstars

Booked an Ola Mini app from home to B'lore International Airport. The site said - 10 Rs /km. The distance was 38kms but the bill added upto Rs706! The customer care executive say the rate for airport is different - Rs 540 for 30 kms & additional for 30+. This is outrageous! Nothing of the sort is mentioned on their website! A Meru sedan would've cost ~600. This is not how you fool customers. Not expected of Ola. Swapnika Nag IIM Bangalore

I hired a an ola from Dwarka to Gurgaon.as per the attached invoice, the total distance is approx 19 kilometer.The waiting charges are include for 35 minutes. Now lease understand this: Time of meter starting-10:09 am Time I received invoice IN my mailbox-10:45 am (assumed that the meter stops and then only the bill is generated) hence total journey time-36 minutes waiting charged for -35 minutes distance travelled -19 kms. SO POINT IS HOW DID THE CAB TRAVEL 19 KM IN ONE MINUTE.i HAVE ATATCHED THE BILL AND HIHLIGHTED THESE THINGS.tHIS IS A CASE OF FROGERY AND THEFT.

I have booked OLA cab(MINI) on18th March, 2015 through OLA cab application for pick up on 22nd March, 2015 at 7 am from Ramamurthy Nagar to kempegowda airport(Bagaluru).I have received mail confirmation with booking confirmation No. CRN68961787 at the same time. Complain No. 1: I had also used coupon code which is a value of Rs. 200/- wave off against this booking.Which was not redeemed from my bill which is enclosed herewith. Please find. Complain No. 2: I have received pick up car details/drver mob no. message from OLA Cab at 6:45 am on 22nd March'2015 but its really shameful for OLA cab transport that after prior confirmation also their car/vehicle unable to came for pick up at 7am and late come by another 15 mints.As per rule Cab should come at the pick up point minimum10 mints before as per customers knowledge. But how OLA cab is charging Rs. 66/- for waiting time(33mints) its really a new hike of wonder. Complain No.3: When my OLA cab not came to pickup me at 6:50 am, I was worried and called up again to OLA customer service and customer care representative has informed me that one cab is near to my pick up point and he has canceled my original request which was applied with coupon code and created a new request for the journey. Now my question is why people should booked OLA cab through OLA app(mobile/PC)...whether its no use or OLA is unable to provide minimum service at all???????? Complain No. 4: OLA cab service has to checked their all vehicles in condition its really disappointing that when I have asked driver to switch on Air conditioner(AC), he answered me that AC is not working...so what type of car OLA has used for their services and more of that what type of satisfaction a customer should get with this bogus service with this surfeit bill??????????????????? Complain No. 5: Driver has not paid any toll charge at toll gate and I believe no toll charges is there for sunday, because I have not seen not a single car paying anything at toll gate because at that morning time not a single coupon counter has been opened. So why that Rs. 75 toll charge has been added in my bill????????? Complain No.6: There is no where mentioned in bill Rs 200/- less from total amount after applying coupon code. Why So??????????????? When I have paid the amount for this journey, I was big surprised about the amount, diver never on the AC but the bill was Rs. 808/- and when I have asked driver why the bill amount is excessive he asked me to check my mail A/c to see the detail bill send by OLA cab to me in my mail A/c. I have received the bill receipt copy from OLA Cab with the break ups as mentioned below- Base fare for 30 kms: ₹540 Rate for 9.64 kms: ₹125.32 Wait time charge for 33 Min: ₹66.0 Peak time charge ₹0.0 Toll Charges ₹75 Total Payable Bill ₹808 Its my request to OLA cab kindly investigate the above matter and return me back my excess amount at the earliest as the amount which OLA(mini car) has received from me is Rs. 130 more against a normal bill which I've generally paid for the same distance(i.e. my residence at RamMurtthy Nagar to kempegowda airport).

On 21/3/15, I got an sms saying, Two Ola Auto rides worth Rs 50 Each free on first two rides. I booked an auto (KRN 5202599) to reach a destination on the same day and driver of Auto KA02AD796 asked me to pay the total fare + Rs 10 as convenience charges. Can some body inform is it a routine practice being followed?

This complaint is in regard with the incident that I encountered on the morning of 23rd March, 2015 in Dehradun. I had booked an Ola cab for a pickup from ISBT Dehradun in the morning at 5:30am. Since i had booked the cab from the Ola Cab app, i was able to get all the driver details and his position immediately. The estimated pickup time was 13 mins when i had booked the cab. I called the driver after 15 mins of waiting. The driver very casually asked me to wait 15 mins more since he was far off even when his GPS location showed him at a distance of hardly 10 mins walking. Since i was accompanied by my sister, i decided to wait as it would be unsafe to travel by any other mode at that odd hour. Again i called the driver after 10 mins and scolded him for not moving from his location when the cab was already delayed by more than 30 mins to which the driver rudely suggested that if I wish i can cancel the cab. Since this was the height of my tolerance, i had to cancel the cab and had to take an Auto with my sister, at that odd hour which also costed me 500 rupees more than what the cab would have costed me since i had a promotional coupon and Ola money. What is the point of having such services if they hire such reckless and hostile drivers? I demand effective action asap along with adequate compensation since both my money, my comfort and my security was put to risk.

Regularly i am booking OLA only. Yesterday i called ola today morning i need 5am. They said always system fault. And They said as usual via app or internet you will try. So i am using net and booked. At that time by mistake SEDAN i booked. So i tried to cancel by online. No possiblity via online. So i sent mail [protected]@olacabs.com. CRN 69588489. After that i try another MINI around same time. CRN 69598387. Today morning upto 5AM i did not recieve any sms. For my wife only i booked cab from cmbt. She reached and wait for cab. I called customer care. They send one driver details rajesh ford fiesta. He said I was in ambattur. Try another cab. I called again customer care and what is the status? They said cab is not available. Cab is not available means why you send CRN and driver details. For lady safety only we booked call taxi earlier stage. Hereafter i don't use OLA cab.

Actually Auto fare is Rs.42 + Rs.10 service charge . So i ve given Rs.52. After 10mis i got message from Ola Your Ola Money code for KRN 5191529 is 7355.Your Ola Money bill is 90.kidly communicate the code to the driver to proceed with the transaction . After that driver called me and he is asking Code, i ve given the code. But for Rs.52 Auto chagre i have given Rs.142. Rs.52 from my pocket. Rs.90 from Ola money. How they deducted Rs.90.

Hi, I booked a cab from Majestic station Bangalore today 23/03/2015 morning 4AM. By 4.10am i received the driver details and his number was not reachable till 4.20 am. Contacted Customer care. They said they will arrange another cab as alternative. After assigning another cab, the second cab had some problem and the customer care people cancelled my booking in the last minute at 4.30 am. Felt it very difficult to manage with my family to reach home because of their betrayal. Customer service people also were rude while conversation saying they cannot help out further. Ola cab service is the worstest i've ever experienced. This is the last time i will opt for your service. Driver details are as below: Name : Manjunath ph : [protected] Booking id : CRN69186182

I and one of my friend(two girls) had been waiting for one and a half hour at a unknown place in Bhubaneswar waiting for a ola cab to arrive at 7:00 pm.It was confirmed from the ola customer care and we were informed that the driver named Ashok([protected]) for CRN69561861, White Indigo OD 05 6919 will be picking us up from the booking place.It was 7:10 when we realised that something went wrong and we should call up the driver again to remind him.When we called him up at 7:10, he arrogantly said that, "madam, I will not go patia as there is some problem.so it is cancelled.I cant come."But while booking, we already told him that if there is any problem, drop us at big bazaar near patia and he agreed to it during our first talk.But he kept us waiting and assured that he is on his way.we called up in d customer care too bt we never received any help.And our pick up place was a isolated place, anything wrong could have happened to us.."WHO WOULD HAVE TAKEN DAT BLAME??"...U PEOPLE!...If there was any cancellation u ppl shud have informed us before and not when we call to remind.For this irresponsible attitude o[censored]r service itz very easy for a crime to occur THAT IS WHY WOMEN ARE NOT SAFE IN OUR COUNTRY...WE ARE VERY DISAPPOINTED BY YOUR SERVICE AND WANT AN EXPLANATION FROM UR SIDE OTHER THAN SORRY..

Dear Sir, Initially I was very impressed by using cabs. Now a days your service in not satisfied. We made our program and booked the cab accordingly. And at the end last moment we get call from cab people that this cab cancelled and book other cab. How can we find the cab last moment? If you do not have cab, then they must inform us at the time of booking only. We waste our time on road to look the cabs! Please they must improve there service and think of customer satisfaction.

Hi Ola, Today morning to ask, about my invoice details and other queries, I has called OLA. Upon anwering the call, a lady told me to give the CRN number, I told please find out tfrom the sytem, as I was running short of time. She responded very rudely on this. When I asked her to give me a call back in 5 minutes. She told " No we cannot call you back" What sort of attitude do these young call center executives carry? I don't understand!! She put me on hold for another 5 minutes, when I told I would escalate this and would want to talk to her manager. Please take care of this issue. My mobile number is [protected] and I use minimum of 2 Ola services daily!! Thanks Shayari

The worst service of ola cab. I booked a cab in advance of two days for 18 Mar 2015 time 2145 hrs in Danapur patna Bihar. I had to reached to Patna junction. My train was scheduled at 2300 hrs. I received message from Ola cab at 2115 hrs i.e. mobile No of driver. But after 15 minutes I got message from Ola cab that my booking is cancelled and sorry for inconvenience. I called immediately to customer service @[protected]. Your employee felt sorry arranged another cab. Again I received message from Ola i.e another driver No. After five minutes again I got the cancellation message. I want to just ask only one thing "is it fun ?". I had a train at 2300 hrs and you cancelled my ride at 2130 hrs. You know I was helpless. There was no option in danapur to drop me at railway station in time. By any means I booked an auto at 2210 hrs which drop me at station at 2337 hrs and I missed my train. There was three booking in Azimabad Exp from patna to Ahmedabad. I missed my train and amount Rs 4500/. Please clarify the following statements. Now tell me Ola what should I do ? Tell me is your service is trustworthy? Tell me who will bear my lose (Amount and trip both) ? Tell me should I book your cab next time ? Have you trained your employees "how to talk with customers". When I called your customer service in patna @[protected] after second time message of cancellation. Mr pratap or pradeep (don't remember the exact name) talked with me very rudely. Our conversation as follow: Ola: sorry sir, driver has denied to go. Me: I don't know any thing I want a cab Ola: I cannot help you. You do your own arrangement. I can do one thing I will credit 300 in your ola account. For more details listen your recorded conversation.
