To,
Dear Red bus team,

This is to bring to your kind notice that i booked online tickets through Red bus.com on 24th NOV2015 to travel from Hyderabad to Bangalore on 24NOV2015 for 1 Member.

Payment was done through Payumoney. After Payment transaction got a message stating Seat was not booked & Payment received successfully. But i received message and mail from...

I had booked a ticket on October 28 2015 and the bus got cancelled due to breakdown or something. I had to book a ticket via another bus through Redbus. Redbus had to refund me the amount for the cancelled trip. I had made payment partially from Redbus wallet and online debit card payment. I got the refund for the amount that was paid via Debit card but the wallet amount was never refunded. Now it has been almost one month. When ever I call redbus they generate a new ticket number and never process it. The worse customer service ever.

I booked bus ticket from redbus with advance payment (Ticket number THC[protected]Date 6-11-15)
And redbus gave me wrong SMS details about BUS Contact number.

That day, Bus didn't came on scheduled time. i wait for it full night on same Boarding point.(I.e. i was alone waiting on road with my luggage from 11-10 PM to 4 AM)
and i tried to call customer call center of redbus but they were not available within those 4 hours.

Redbus spoiled my schedule and that was very miserable .After waiting 4 hours i went off from there.

next day on[protected] i complained about it By customer care. My service request number is[protected].they were talking about my refund at that time.

But till now[protected], Red Bus didn't responded me by sms either by call.
Infect i called them 4 to 5 times, but they are not giving me proper information.
I lost my too much mobile calling balance behind this.

I was not expecting this from redbus.This is totallly .
I was Depressed mentally by redbus service.

Please give me revert back.

regards,

Beware of Redbus, bzc After booking if you ask question to Travels, they simply answers we are correct, you can ask redbus.but redbus they dont care about such a things
RedBUS will calls you only when if your booking transaction got break, bzc they want money. :)

Other Improtant thing redbus customer care is not free.So i lost & wasted my money by call redbus customer care.

plz Beware of Redbus and Travels they show in site.

I booked a bus on Redbus.in for travel to Ahmedabad to Bhuj. The website clearly mentioned departure at 10:20 and arrival at 04:05. I had a flight at 6:25 but when I got on the bus they told that the bus I booked was discontinued without any information to me due to which I could not board my flight as the bus was scheduled to reach at 6.

I booked a ticket on 4th November 2015 from Delhi to Lucknow. I had the most horrible experience i've ever had.

The bus departure timing was 10:30 PM from Anand Vihar. I left from my place at 8:40 keeping traffic into consideration. I mid of my way at 9 i got a call from a guy stating that you have booked a ticket with us and we want you to come early as the bus will leave before time. I said the timing was 10:30 PM how can bus leave early and still i agreed that alright i come before time. i reached the departure place and found that the bus has already left, I asked the guy were is the bus he said it is at petrol pump you go there. I somehow reached the petrol pump and boarded the bus.

I went in asking for were is the seat number which was on my ticket, on which I got a reply that there is no seat number here you can sit anywere.

I asked the driver to refund the balance payment n I will go sitting. They started fighting that it is not in our hand.

The driver and his group they were DRINKING (HARD DRINKS) in the bus as well.

I request redbus to please take action upon this and refund the complete amount.

As not only I had a bad experience n missed the bus, I faced a loss of work as well.


I sent this mail on 5th november 2015, n no action is taken upon it yet.

I have had bookedbooked online ticket for two passengers having ticket number THBX38465328 for journey on the date 6th November 2015 from goa to pune by paying amount 1650 by debit card. But after booking the ticket I realised that I wanted to book the ticket for the journey on 7th Nov.instead of 6th. So I had cancelled the ticket on 3rd. And booked another ticket by paying another 1650 Rs. After cancellation of ticket I have got SMS that the refund of Rs. 1460 will be credited within 7 days. But even after 16 days I have not received any refund.

I booked a ticket from pune to shirdi on 04-15 ticket no THBP65223379 which was cancelled by travel agency at last moment and were promised that the money would be refunded within 7 days. but till date it has not been refunded and the the customer care is very pathetic and unresponsive.

Hi Team - I am much worried on the experience i had with redbus and their service provider (Apple Bus) for the ticket # THBZ79459535. I am about to get my bus yesterday (11/06/2015) @ 11:20 PM and to get its current location status - I called them @ 11:00 PM. By then, they are telling me that the bus has not been scheduled. Its very annoying for me to call them and know the status of the bus being cancelled. As per the schedule, the bus must have been started by 09:15pm @ the source. They might have informed us if the bus was really cancelled due to technical issue, but these guys are cheating redbus and its customers. I am shocked to see redbus defending such kind of service providers and asking me to arrange for alternate travel @ the midnight.

Originally the bus was not cancelled, instead they sold the ticket in private for 1000 bucks and left the redbus customer uncared and fooled.

As a result, for being the redbus customer - I lost Rs.1500 to reach my destination and above all with pain @ untime. I am totally unconvinced and feeling bad for the most unfair thing happened..

Ticket no-THB[protected] PNR no: TS-RB20386558FQT/52259/Chennai to Bangalore . I booked the ticket on redbus app, and when as the bus was cancelled.There should be a refund of cash in my account, but no refund took place, even after I lodged a complaint to redbus and having given assurance about the refund. Please help.

Please find the attached ticket from Bangalore to Hyderabad on Oct 26, 2015 booked through Red Bus for ticket details.

On Oct 26, 2015, one person called from the bus operator, Kaleswari Travels and informed that my scheduled bus was under breakdown and my bus changed to Hitech. There was no proper info or message regarding the bus number or anything.

I came to the boarding point at 10.15 pm while the bus departure time is 10.45 pm. I am continously contacting the numbers given on the ticket while none of them responded. I was confused regarding the change of bus and there was no proper guidance.Finally after repeated attempts, one of the person received my call at 11.25 pm and he told that the bus changed to New Dhanunjay Travels and the bus also have arrived.

In the morning after i woke up at around 7.30am, to my utter shock and surprise the bus of New Dhanunjaya Travels was at Jadcherla and the bus driver and helper ranaway keeping the bus aside. Many of the passengers lost their belongings. I lost Rs.3000/-. They are not receiving the phone calls and finally we have to go to Hyderabad in another bus which is very far.

Is this the kind of service given to customers? If this is the case I will never use Red Bus and also advise my friends and relatives regarding the same. This is the worst experience and ill treatment meted out to customer.

Kindly take necessary action against the bus operator and refund my ticket amount.

Hi, I would like to file petition through the consumer forum, because of no response from the redbus services. redBus Ticket - THBD92438322 Someone Pavan Chintapalli (red bus service manager) agreed to pay the amount, but not yet paid. Not at all responding to my mobile and also tried with couple of other numbers. Their site says, "tickets booked from their site are refundable", but so far not happened. Transport services which are not registered in practical are placing their services through redbus, and redbus encourages those fault activities. Asked for list of registered transport services and MoU between the transporters and redbus, But no reply. Still struggling to get the list.

I had booked 5 tickets through DUTT KRUPA TRAVELS from pune to surat before one and half month of travel date. And just before 10 days travel agent called me and told that bus is cancelled and money will be refunded.And for further queries i should talk with redbus and not the travel agent. when called to redbus they were completely negligent and did not find themselves responsible for any inconvenience caused to the passengers. they were not willing to help in any matter and moreover they even didnt provide us with alternative travel option. firstly, the tickets booked before one and half month costed me 700 each and now the same travel costs me about 1200 for each ticket. why would i book ticket before one and half month if at the end of the day i have to book again for almost double rates. secondly, why is redbus not responsible for any inconvenience caused to its customers. if the travel agency says that you need to talk with redbus as you have booked tickets through it and redbus says that we cannot do anything.. who is responsible for such inconvenience? thirdly, we would have booked tickets before one half month only because the travel was so important to us. so at the very last moment when the prices have hiked we are left with no option but to book tickets with higher price again using the same redbus platform.(so double commission by redbus) fourthly, when talked with two phone operators of redbus and a person from higher authority they provided the same reasons and excuses of not doing anything about it and not responsible for anything. then why have you created such a platform for the customers if they arent responsible for any damn thing? fifth, the money to be refunded will be the same amount that is 700*5 = 3500. so, extra money will be paid by us for the same tickets and nothing that we get back for the hiked prices of the bus rates. is this some kind of strategy? so that the customers are bound to pay high ticket rates when the prices of tickets are hiked during season time. this is truly unbearable. travel date 6 november registration in name of pratik kotadia travelling from pune to surat we just want our tickets replaced by any other available bus with the same amount we had paid earlier.

WIth respect of above subject, I have a redbus cash coupon of Rs:807.50 tried to redeem by booking bus ticket but couldn't after contacting redbus customer care came to know this facility been withdrawn and he suggested to contact redbus support team, i have sent a mail regarding the issue and relevant details but so far not got any updation and response on this. I have sent reminder mail 2-3 times .requesting you to kindly consider and help me out to get back my money .
