Red Bus Complaints & Reviews

Hello sir,

I had booked a ticket from redbus, for today from bangalore to kumta. The pick up was scheduled at 20:30 hrs.
At 1900 hrs i called them up to confirm the pick up point and then they inform me that the bus has been cancelled.
1 hour prior to the pick up they tell me, that too when i called them up.

When i asked them to make alternative arrangements they refused to deal with my request. Now i have wasted my entire vacation, incurring a loss of my hotel booking as well my return ticket but most importantly my time.

Please take some action against the concerned department. I demand a refund of all the losses that i have faced.

I have booked ticket from red-bus sight on 21/10/2016 for journey from Hyderabad to Pamuru(prakasam district).But in red-bus sight uploaded bus details were Kottes Travels AC gold bus from Hyderabad to pamuru(prakasam district).As per above details i have booked the ticket from Hyderabad to pamuru on 21/10/2016.when i was get in bus at boarding point in erragadda in kottes bus, the bus driver was said that the bus going to destination was machilpatnam (Krishna District).Then i made a calls to red-bus about this issue to red-bus, they told that we should give refund the money about this journey and chosen yourself to alternate option to go your destination.
As per their call i was get down from the bus at dilsukh nagar(Hyderabad) and i went to my destination from another bus. After two days i have called so many times to red-bus about my money, they easily sent mail to me to reject my refund money. This was mistake was done by red-bus to uploaded wrong destination details in their site. I have sent 4 mails to red-bus support team but they did not respond me.

I have booked ticket in redbus portal on 4th may 2015, But the ticket got cancelled immediately(got the information through message and phone call). I am still having SMS undeleted in my phone.
so I informed redbus call center and they promised me that amount will be refunded in few days,

I waited patiently and even after repeated calls and followups no refund is issued.

It is very disturbing that my hard earned money which is supposed to be refunded is getting denied for no reason.

Even after customer service representative committing that it will be acted and I will be getting feedback or response with 48 hours,
still no one responded to me on this.

Multiple followups but no help.

Hi,
This is regarding a bus ticket cancellation for which the money has not been refunded yet even after a month. Multiple calls were made from my side to the both online bus ticketing partner redbus and the travels company orange travels. Both have failed to provide proper solution.

On 19th of september i have booked 4 tickets in orange travels via online ticketing portal redbus.in. Booked for thiruvananthapuram to bangalore and the date of travel was 24th of september. On the date of travel (24th sep) i got a message from orange travels stating that the bus has been cancelled due to some reason. I got a call as well stating the same. When i asked about the refund, they said redbus will take care of it and i within a week money would be refunded. I have been calling both redbus and orange travels from the day (From the day that they said the money would be refunded) and there were no proper answers. They are just blaming one to another (Redbus blaming orange travels and vice versa).

After so many calls were made i have decided to make a final call on last thursday (Oct 13). I got really angry to the customer care representative when they said another lame excuse and i said i want to escalate this issue to the higher level. After around 20 mins of hold, finally they said the refund has been approved and it would take another one week for the refund. I waited one more week. I again called them yesterday (20 oct 2016) since there were no updates. They said the refund has been initiated and i will get a mail regarding the same. I am still waiting for there update. After so many efforts i am getting hopeless from their lame responses. Please take this complaint to them do the needfull.

Attaching the ticket details and the bus cancellation notification from the travels.

Thanks

I didn't get money in my wallet i refer my code in my friends they already travelled but i did not balance in my wallet why i am not getting wallet balance in my red bis wallet. In that you conformed that if our friend will travels then i will get balance. My friend was 5 days ago but i did not get why what is the reason behind it . As possbile give me replay my complaint.

I tried to booked ticket on 6th or 7th of october for shirpur to mumbai, all of travel servicing websites are been handled by pilani soft labs pvt. ltd to which my payment was done, the ref no of transaction is: [protected]igaaarcnq9
The amount of 812 inr was deducted in my account, but the ticket was not issued! thus i also wanted my refund back, i cantacted the service center for describing the issue, they said that they didn't recieved the payment! my money has been deducted & it has not been transfered back to my account.

My name is krishnakanth. Recently i booked a ticket from nellore (A. P) to bangalore for traveling date1-nov 2016 in redbus by hp travels for the payment of rs.699 (Original price). Ticket is conformed on oct 18th, but two days after i got a call from hp travels and telling that your ticket is cancelled so call redbus customer care and asks for refund. But now the same bus they r charging rs.1300 in the same redbus site. They did't say any proper reason why they cancelled that bus
