      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

                    The seats on the replacement bus was changed causing problem to my old mother-in-law and sister-in-law. We requested to provide the same seats on the replacement bus but the conductor was rude and asked us to cancel our ticket just an hour before the departure.

                      Hi,

                      I booked a ticket to travel on 26/02/2016 by RTS travels, my ticket was cancelled by the travels agency due to some bus breakdown reasons at the last minute and they replied that money would be refunded by redbus within 24 hours but i did not receive any call or messages from the concern regarding this. I have notified about this to redbus.in several times earlier and have registered about this in Consumer complaints. This has resulted a loss for me of RS.500.

                      My Ticket no: TJ3T47643964

                      PNR no: TS-RB25836303ECR/16655/Chen to Madu

                      Kindly do the needful ASAP.

                      Regards,
                      Fathima.

                        Dear Concern,

                        This is with regards to request for cancellation of ticket.

                        I had a ticket booked to travel on 26/02/2016 the travel agency sent a message stating "Journey has been cancelled due to bus breakdown"

                        I had requested for the same and it has not been done providing a reason that they cant do so.
                        While I had gotten approval from the concerned Travel Agency, Redbus didnt support on timely manner. And this has led a loss of Rs.450 to me.

                        Though I had requested much before time my request wasnt acted upon.

                        Request you to take appropriate action.
                        Red Bus customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                          Booked bus from ludhiana to delhi. operator called me and said they will charge extra as they were rerouting the bus. i asked them to refund me my money. no money yet its more than 1 week now. i called back the customer service, they asked me to get directly in contact with the bus operator. If i wanted to get directly in contact with the operator, why in this world should i book it from red bus then. every time i will go to operator site then. really fed up with the service.

I definatetly go to consumer forum to file case. still i didnot got refunded my lost money. redbus is responsible for that while i lost my money because i go through redbus.

                                I have booked a ticket through REDBUS on 28th Feb from Bangalore to Chennai Departure time 9.50pm A/C SLEEPER towards JABBAR travels, but unfortunately the bus was one hour delay and the bus is not fit to run as a A/C SLEEPER the bus is really capable to run as a local municipality bus only, I was not provided a blanket untill I asked and was not given any snacks too which has been advertised. The worst part was the BUS was keep jumping for the whole journey and it made me sick for a back pain for two days. TJ3X98938426 TS-RB25987358QUQ/260156/. Don't think I will not recommend REDBUS anymore, I will definitely spread this message to my surrounding for sure and make sure my entire circle will not use REDBUS and JABBAR anymore. contact no : [protected]

                                    We booked the ticket on 25.2.2016 from coimbatore to chennai in National travels. We booked for berth but while travelling the travels office alloted seater. we feel inconvenience in travelling national travels. we didnt get the refund money also. and we didnt travel in national travels on that date. national travels is worst travels. For making money they are selling tickets in their office as well. and same thing they are given in red bus also. so for one bus they are selling tickets in two different locations. we are totally disappointed with your service. we request national travels to be removed from red bus. otherwise you will be loosing your customers in future.

                                    Dear Chakrapani,
                                    I am extremely sorry to hear about the issue with this trip, knowing that the seat was changed. I completely understand that this wasn't the experience you expect when booking a ticket with redBus. We aim to connect you to a hassle free trip - no matter where you are going - and I understand how difficult this experience would have been.
                                    Don't worry, I've forwarded your feedback to the Bus Operations team so they can check in with the Bus operator and investigate the details. I will follow this up and revert to you with a solution within 48 working hours.
                                    Please note: The Bus operator will either agree for a refund or dispute this claim; In case they agree I would be happy to process a refund as suggested by them and, if not, redBus will try and help you in the best possible way. I will keep you posted on the outcome with reasons if any.

                                    Aditya.V,

                                        Website: www.redbus.in

                                        I want to launch a complaint against Red bus regarding the below incident:

                                        I have booked Bus ticket on 13th Feb 2016 for travelling from Thane to Ahmedabad by Red bus. The travel name was Ganga Travel Aeroline Free Wifi. Date of Journey was 21st Feb 2016.

                                        As per schedule I was waiting at the asked location on 20th Feb 2016 (MAJIWADA NEAR CNG GAS PUMP BUS STOP) from 23:55 to 00:40 PM but bus did not arrived. Mean while was also continuously calling on number [protected] (Mentioned in the ticket) but could not connect as the number was switched off. Also was trying the number [protected] (Bus Conductor) but the same was also switched off.

                                        Than after waiting till 00:40 I called on the land line number[protected] of Red Bus and have explained the concern. The gentle man on other hand took some time and straight away has asked to take some other transport to reach Ahmedabad. The Gentle man words were “I can't arrange any other transport for you at this moment. Its better you book it from your end”. Being in same industry if Red Bus can't book a transport than how does they expect a normal man to book it at Night at 01:00 AM. Mean while have also got connected to [protected] (Bus conductor, Ganga Travel Aeroline Free Wifi) and he conveyed that there is no seat reserved for me for 21st Feb 2016.

                                        After this I was forced to book air ticket for Morning 05:30 AM till Ahmedabad as my availability on the day was very important. Below is detailed list of Expense occurred while opting other mode of transport. That was a sleepless night for me as I was struggling to get the other mode of transport. And even next day haven't sleep as I was involve in some personal assignment in Ahmedabad. Same night (21st Feb 2016) again I travelled back to Mumbai.

                                        Total amount spend by me to take other mode of transport:

                                        307/- Taxi fare till Airport from Thane
                                        3520/- Air Ticket charges from Mumbai to Ahmedabad
                                        275/- Taxi fare from Ahmedabad Airport till destination
                                        Also the Bus ticket worth Rs. 550/- booked from Red bus from Thane to Ahmedabad is an addition.

                                        As you might have understood, that the above deviation in journey caused mental stress & agony to myself with the other inconvenience that are linked to it.

                                        So the total amount which I have to lawfully claim from Red bus is addition of above, Plus the Mental stress and agony to be charged extra by Red bus.

                                        This was the worst's experience the one can ever have.

                                        Regards,

                                        After several reminders and follow-up team Red bus is not giving Proper assurance about the claim and is not investigating the case correctly. I have raised my concerns on 22nd Feb 2016 through mail and even have narrated the incident to customer care executive.

                                        Dear Consumer Complaints Team,

                                        Still their is no response from Red Bus Team. Few days back have got a call from Red bus and they offered to take 2000/- Rupees for the inconvenience cause to me and have asked to settle the case. The said amount is not acceptable as the Mental stress and agony to myself because of the incidence is much higher than this. I had a sleepless night and was struggling that night to get other mode of transport. Please suggest a way forward.

                                        Regards,
                                        Prashant Solanki
