Red Bus Complaints & Reviews

We have booked between chennai and kallidaikurichi and return.

1. Four sleeper berths were booked at the cost of rs.3260/- (Travels-
Sree jothitravels, nellai), pnr:sjti5eb361146 on 01/6/18. Seat nos. L3, l4, l5 &l6

2. Four berths (2 sleeper and 2 semi-seeper) were booked for travel between kallidaikurichi and chennai on 03/6/18 at the cost of rs.4060/- (Travels-sree jothitravels, nellai), pnr:sjti5eb441337 seat nos. 7, 8, l7 &l8.

The fare (Rs.4060/-) for return journey appears to be more with less
Comfort (2 berths and 2 seats) as compared to onward journey rs.3260/-
With proper sleeper berth allotment for all the four customers.

Why is there a difference in fares between 2 points of travel by the same transportation? Awaiting your reply.

I have booked a ticket from visakhapatnam to vijayawada on may 8th.. Transaction was failed for first time and (2709) money was deducted from my account twice... I have raised a complaint with redbus for almost 6 times but they dint refund the money.. Redbus customer care is saying they will refund the money as money was credited to their amount twice but they are not refunding the money.. I have attached the proofs.. Please help me in this regard..

I have booked bus ticket, tm[protected] on 12th may 2018 using redbus for myself and my family (3+1) from thiruvananthapuram to bangalore. The bus operator was kallada and travel date was 13th may 2018. The bus was breakdown in nagarcoil after 2 hours of journey. Then the operator denied to continue the trip. After serveral hours of argument and requests they have arraged a very poor vehicle (Tempo traveller) at 4am. That was not at all comfortable for long journey. After the hectic travel they have dropped us in hosur on monday (14-may-2018) 4at pm 1 without any altrenative to my actual destination bangalore. Then i have reached my destination by my taxi. I lost my money, peace of mind and forcefully taken a leave from office.

I have intimated the same to redbus and they created an incident for the same and they promised me that they will refund my money back. But i have not yet got resolution from redbus. I felt so cheated by rdbus and their bus operators. I faced so much trouble, paid for some service that was never given to me.

I request you to take action against redbus and provide me support to get fair compensation for this

I booked a ticket through red bus app on the 5th of may (7:19 pm), from mangalore to bangalore (Tm[protected] travel date 10th may). The amount paid through paytm wallet was rs727.50. I cancelled the ticket on the 8th of may and received confirmation of cancellation (See attached image) on the same day. When the refund was not processed in seven days i raised a complaint on the red bus app (See attached image), reference number 4024709. I was promised that the refund will be processed by 15th may. On 16th of may i received an email saying that the refund has been processed (See attached image) and that the refund will reflect in 7 business days (I. E. By 23rd may). When i didnot receive refund by 24th of may, i again initiated a complain (Reference number 4135616, see attached image). On 24th i again received an email (See attached image) that the refund was done on 16th of may itself and that i should contact paytm for the same. I contacted paytm and enquired but from there i was told that no payment has been issued from redbus, and that if it is done i should ask redbus for transaction id. When today (1st june) i am trying all the customer care numbers of redbus, i am constantly getting a wrong number dialled message.
This kind of behaviour and unprofessional conduct is highly objectionable. It's not about a refund of rs578, it is about plain fraud and cheating. I have wasted so much time in enquiring about this refund, will redbus compensate for the time that i have lost and the trauma that i have gone through.

If there is any legal process that needs to be initiated, someone please advise me.

My travel starts from trivandrum on 29th may 2018 1.00pm pickup i had booked 2seats r14, r15 as per the chart it showed side by side seats but on the bus it was different. The nightmare starts from trivandrum i was told the pickup was in front a music college in trivandrum me and my wife waited there as we reached half an hour early. Then a staff from k. P. N comes by on a bike saying you should walk but the bus is in the garage i said ok carried my luggage and walked towards the garage. There they mentioned the actual bus we were supposed to board is a scania multi axle but that bus is broken down in madurai. So u should travel in an alternative sleeper non ac bus to nagercoil and from there an volvo bus will transport us to madurai and then the actual travel starts. But the bus which we boarded from nagercoil broke down twice as the vehicle was overheating. The driver has no clue what was happening drove it till k. P. N parcel office and we were stranded there for nearly 3hrs and there was pickup also from same spot they were waiting for nearly 4hrs. We spoke to the manager at kpn parcel office he was arrogant and rude saying it’s usual it happens to our buses we should bear it. And then they got the bus up and running reached madurai got into our actual bus at 10.30pm. Till now they didn’t have a courtesy to stop for lunch, coffee or dinner. At around 11.30pm i think the driver was hungry he started looking for restaurent’s and for his and our bad luck nuthing was open. And the driver stops for 10mins at a local bakery and says eat what you can won’t be stopping anywhere else. And we reach bangalore at around 6am. This is the worst experience anyone could go through kpn travels worst and arrogant staff. I will be taking this matter forward to consumer court nobody shud go through this experience and this travels should be boycotted.

I booked a redbus ticket for travel from kannur to bangalore scheduled on may 4 2018. Bus operator is kalpaka travels. I had to cancel the ticket on 4th may. I got the below email from redbus.
"your ticket has been cancelled successfully and we have initiated the process to refund rs 870 to you.
Your booking trip id for this ticket is[protected]
Ticket details:

It is 29th may today and still i haven't received the refund amount.

I had booked my ticket from thane to pune on may 17th 2018. the money was immediately debited from my account but the refund is not done yet.
red bus customer care executive fool you by telling you that your refund is done but if it is done why doesnt it reflect in my bank account i have completely lost faith in this app never ever booking a ticket again and recommending everyone against it.

We have booked 3 tickets via redbus app for travelling from mumbai to hyderabad on 17th may, 2018. The bus was scheduled in evening and the it was orange travels bus, at 2:00pm in afternoon we got an call from orange travels about bus cancellation and providing us the alternate bus which was a semi sleeper and the ticket rate was less. They suggested us to take this bus and the difference amount of 1666 will be refunded to us withing 7 working days.
We have also requested them to give us the seats in front rows as all the travellers were ladies along with kids. They said we have tickets of last row if you want to take then take or else cancel the trip in this bus. However we managed to accept the deal and agreed to travel in this bus and also booked 1 additional ticket for our kids. Later after 7 working days we asked about the status of refund we are still getting respond that we are verifying and get back to you.

They are not even aware that our bus was cancelled and we traveled in semi sleeper bus instead of sleeper bus.

I am not getting my amount back and its 10th day now

I was booked redbus today morning and they confirmed booking of 11.15 am from alibaug bus stand. We were there at 10.45 am. As per they are sending mail they have not mentioned the bus number or any other contact info. We were spent there approx 2 hrs. But no single semi luxury bus arrived there. We asked in the depo enquiry counter they told us that bus will arrive at this point.

Me, my wife and my 4 year old son was badly faced this issue. We were almost loose our control. Till now they don't show courtesy to ask customer whether we get that bus or not. Another thing is that they mentioned in site that we don't need to take a print out copy. But after booking confirmed they shown message that you have to take a print out copy of that ticket without that they can't accept. Around that area there is no single cyber cafe to take that print. How terrible experience we faced that. We board in a another st (I. E. Which is actually a red color bus) and we left that place. Even we can't cancelled that ticket. We want our money back. That's it and please take a legal action against them.

I booked red bus through ganesh travels for travelling chennai on 24 may 2018 and i tried to cancel at 5.45 pm and the display shows i should contact with ganesh travels mobile no. [protected]. While approaching he told to contact red bus and i explained in detail about message and finally he told me to contact on today i. E. 25th may 2018.

Pnr no. Gani5nhq4064
Ticket no. Tm6n20680645
