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

    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.

                          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.

                                  On 25th feb, and 4th march i tried to book tickets using redbus. but in both days at first booking i lost money, again i tried to book ticket, then i got confirmation. i dont why the network problem of payment gate occured at first booking only. this is the cheating of redbus. 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.

Still with no resolution..

                                      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]
