I want to Refund account my deducting SBI account whose ticket has been booked but journey not completed.
    I booked my ticket from coimbatore to chennai instead of 15th apr 2016 at .10 pm by mistake I selected current data that is 14th Apr 2016 at..10 pm

    latter(14th Apr 2016 at 6pm)i noticed my mistake and contacted national travels and red bus customer care
    the both said no possibility to cancell aswell as change the travel date. .

    my family members, friends and me a frequent user of red bus but now I decided to avoid red bus and I m going to spread this to all to avoid REDBUS.

    VERY WORST SERVICE

      I have booked a ticket for the journey from Chennai to Dindigul on Mar21 - 2016. I faced so many network issues while booking, few like your seat has been already booked and you are unable to book it, still it is available to be booked and so many turn overs while I have reached the payment gateway. After all this I've booked a ticked first, it got canceled and I got a call that the amount would be refunded. Again I tried to book in the same bus service using Redbus. Same issue repeated and again my amount got withdrawn. It got cancelled twice and my amount withdrawn twice from my account. Later I got a call stating that my amount would be refunded in next 7 working days but still I didn't get back my amount credited.

      Ticket Reference numbers are mentioned below:
      1. Reference No: 82852876
      2. Reference No: 82850577
      No action has been taken yet.
      Yet to take the necessary action.
      Worst response. Users hate the customer support provided by Redbus.

      Wrong information

      Bus Departure & arrival Time mentioned on the site were wrong.
      The bus reachedthe destination late by more than 2 hours.

      Attached is the bus ticket.

                  On 22-March-16 I booked a ticket from Ahmedabad to Rajkot for 23-March-16. I paid through axis credit card. Payment was successful. I got payment successful email also. I didn't receive any PNR number via mail or message. When I was about to board, bus operator didn't allow me to as my ticket was not booked. So I called REDBUS customer care, he said there was some technical error and your ticket was not booked. My concern is I had not received any mail or notification for booking failure. I had to attend some meeting at Rajkot urgently. So I had to travel through a private cab which costed me Rs.5000 as due to festival there were no seats available in other travels. I sent two mail to customer care of REDBUS and am not getting any response. Today, I sent reminder mail and they gave me new reference number again but didnt answer for previous mail. I can send a mail chain of REDBUS if required.

                  Please guide me what shall I do?
                  Thank You in advance

                            We have booked tickets from delhi to moradabad(Volvo) journey date 23.03.2016 & a vice versa journey dated 26.02.2016(Ac shatabdi) but regrets as both of the journeys results in pathetic experience faced by us.
                            Firstly from delhi to mbd our seat no.Were 34&39 but 39 no. Dont even exist in volvo & red bus have charged us for the seat that dont even exist.
                            Secondly in the return journey our seat no. Were 13&14 but suprisingly some other passengers also having an online ticket with the same seat no. As a result after so much of chaos we have to get down from the bus in the outskirts of the city.
                            We will definitely take this case of yours in consumer forum for cheating & harresment.

                              The bus was of a higher price thang regular even the services were bad, these were the problems :
                              1. i did not get the seats i had booked for (i had booked an upper seat, got lower instead )
                              2. the bus made so much noise and it was so uncomfortable that sleeping was impossible ( the shocker and the engine noise )
                              3.the service of the bus was bad they did not stop even when when i felt a little nauseous because of all the non-comfort.
                              4. no proper place to put the luggage

                              DATE: 23 MARCH 2015,

                                I booked a bus ticket from Thiruvalla to Bangalore. The journey date was on March 28, 2016. To avoid the overcharge imposed by the travels during festive season (Easter eve), I booked the ticket on Feb 27, 2016.
                                I managed to get a seat on Kerala Lines multi axle for Rs.999. On March 24, 2016 i got a message that it got cancelled and I called the redBus customer care for an alternative for me to travel on the same date.

                                The straight answer was a NO. They said that its on my side to find an alternative. When I went to their site the rate went up to 2000+.

                                  Dear Sir,

                                  I got a call from Red bus and the travellers that the bus got cancelled. Red bus agent himself mentioned they will initiate ticket cancellation from their end on 12th March 2016. Till now I spoke with red bus customer care 6 times and they provide the same response wait for 1 day we will initiate the refund.

                                        I am writing complaint for disappointed service from Red bus. I booked ticket two days ago for Indore to Bangalore for today. Yesterday i got call from bus operator that bus is cancelled after that I had word with Red Bus customer care executive and they said you'll receive call today within 1 hour with solution or refund. I tried 3 more times call after 3 hour wait to again RB Customer Care but have same answer. Again i waited for next 24 hour till today 2 PM and now bus time is over bit still no action is performed from Red BUS. How can we expect and trust on this type of services because tomorrow i have to reach Bangalore for some urgent work and now i don't have option for Train or Bus for today. I need to spend again 4 times amount in flight due Red Bus bad services. I will never suggest anyone to book ticket with RB. At the end they final said that they will refund amount till this Tuesday but still i have no answer from Red Bus. As well i said them for penalty due to delayed from their end, So they gave me 200 INR coupon but not after spent 1 month time. Need 10 times of
