I have stayed in oyolife, hebbal blr1094 in month of july for which i was misguided by the supervisor and ultimately costed me 6k extra and a horrible stay experience.
I had checked in the property on 5th july and supervisor there guided me. It seemed nice at that time but my plan was to stay only for a month and i told the supervisor the same. He told me that it is fine to put the notice before 15 days or so. So i checked in on 5th july and i put up a notice on 13th july to checkout on 31st july. But due to below mentioned unsafe and unliveable conditions i had to leave the facility on 27th july.
Upon my stay there, it was fine till 20th july, although room was dark and dingy and there was a water logging issue in washroom. But i adjusted with that. Around 20th, bangalore govt announced a 2 day water supply-cut for which this property was not prepared and the water got over late night. Supervisor was not available to whom people can complain or anything can be done. Only a cleaning person was available. The next day, tanker came around 11 am after which people could go to work. Every other oyo property was prepared for this water-cut but this one wasn’t. After this 2 day issue, every other washroom in property got water but there was no water supply in my washroom (Room 104). I had put up a lot of complaints online through customer care number (200167, 200168, 200170) but of no use. Everytime they told me that it will be solved in 24 hours but the problem was same. Even i notified to supervisor about this water problem and he was never physically available after 6pm (When normally people come back from office) and over phone, he used to say that he has checked but he never actually checked as the problem was same when i used to reach home. A room without water supply is not liveable. I have paid for the facility which was not provided. Even kitchen in our apartment didn’t had water supply. I had to go upstairs to an unoccupied room to use washroom. This horrible condition was there for 4 days. To make it worse, the supervisor then fired the cleaning person/ security guard and the whole building was unattended. There was no security at night from 21st-27th that i know of. Nobody cleaned up the apartment for more than 15 days (Can’t say after that as i left the place). It was very bad experience. After these incidents, i had to take up another place for remaining 4 days on 27th till my checkout on 31st.
Is this how you treat people after they take up a place at oyo! This was such a horrible experience.
After all this, i expect oyo to return whole my security and refund the rent i paid for those troubled days. They have been sending me payment link (5 times) for rent of month of august, even though i have checked out in july. I even got a eviction notice for a stay which i wasn’t.
After a month, i got my security back and that they have cut 6.3k in that. This is unacceptable.
Upon contacting them through social media escalation team as their support team don’t do anything, they looked into the issue and contacted building manager who listened to the whole scenario as offered me to refund atleast security deposit as before that month the notice period was 15 days and it changed during those months only. He mailed the same to central team as his solution to the conversation. The central team then, instead of solving the issue, just mailed that i have to bear all those charges as it is their policy. Do they have a policy to trick people into agreement, force them to leave property by making horrible and unsafe conditions for them and then take up their security deposit!
There was no policy regarding 30days notice was conveyed prior to payment. The agreement was sent after payment in which policy states “ this agreement may be terminated by either party by giving 1 (One) month prior written notice to the other party at the end of the calendar month or by mutual consent of the parties.” the mutual agreement with the supervisor of the building was 15 days prior and i did that.
No basis of keeping the security deposit by oyo.
