    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

      This is not the first time i'm facing such problem. Many times money got deducted, but ticket has not been booked and there is no proper information provided about the issue whether the ticket will get booked within a while or else money will get refunded. Being a very popular app and this kind of ignorance is very bad on your part. I'm never gonna use this app again.

            This is regarding the rebus ticket number - tjau97562962, which was cancelled by traveller for journey date 30th sep 16.

            I got a call from swamy ayyappa travels on 29th sep-16, conveyed, the bus was cancelled due to cauvery water issue. also confirmed that the refund will be initiated from red bus only and nothing can be done from traveller end.

            On the same day (29th sep16), i had called red bus support team and conveyed the message. red bus support agent conveyed that cancellation process was initiated end of that call.

            I didn’t get the refund amount of 1900 (2 tickets) from red bus till now.

            In the mean time, i have contacted red bus support team couple of time back, and agent were saying to me, they did not receive any official bus cancellation message from traveler (swamy ayyappa) and thats why the refund is pending from long time.

            Really i don’t know what is happening between redbus & travells to complete the refund process.???

            I am much disappointed service from red bus, since till now there is no corrective action taken and am writing this email with painful heart.

            Please treat this action as a top priority and would expect the resolution asap.

            Note: here with i have attached the soft copy of the journey ticket.

            Regards
            Charles edwin

              I was expecting a default refund. But not happened. While contacted, redbus responded as they have to check the operator bla, bla.etc.. Finally they accepted the cancellation, and claimed that they initiated the refund on 24th Sep (#[protected]. But no refund happened yet. Filed 2 complaints ( #045224 &054451). They have a readymade answer that refund was initiated, but no refund in the bank. Pending for more than a month. please do the needful. Made 5-6 calls, written two times. But no action except their fake promises. They are taking ride on passengers, by keeping the money.

                          I had booked 2 tickets for a bus journey by vishal tourist from banglore to udupi on the 12th of september. Due to bandh and riots in banglore the bus was cancelled and I am yet to receive an amount of 1400 rupees for the 2 tickets. All of this even after sending an email to the customercare email address of red bus. Extremely shameful behavior and not a care for the grievance of its customers. Highly disappointed. PLEASE LOOK INTO IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

                            I have cancelled my ticket in redbus.in from namakkal to bangalore for 30th october, 2016 and the amount has got credited to my wallet balance. I would like the redbus to refund the amount of rs1105 from wallet balance to bank balance immediately. The customer service is horrible. I couldnt reach to anybody from the redbus. The tol free number given by them isnt reachabe. The other office numbers of the red bus doesnt get answered by the eole working there. This is not happening for the first time. The way they treat the customers is rediculous and cannot be tolerated.
                            Red Bus customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                  I am using red bus app for bus ticjet booking. After a long time red bus gives some discount as cash back on ticket booking, so I got also cash back of discount money which is appears on my red bus wallet. But sorry to say that there is no option for transfer my wallet cash to my bank account. Therefore I request to redbud team to Please return my wallet amount to my bank account....
