I have booked a ticket from trichur to chennai for 30th May 2015. Then I called the customer care and cancelled the ticket(non ac) and booked a ticket for the same day. While booking, I asked them I can use the amount and book the ticket online. But, they asked me to go for Cash on delivery option for the rest of amount. The next day, I received a call from delivery center saying that they wont deliver. If you need it, then you need to come to T-Nagar and collect. I literally confused on the attitude. And he threatened me if you can not collect in a day time, he will cancel the ticket. Is this the way Red bus treating a customer? If they would have told me the same, I would have booked the tickets online. Now, they are not responding. Is this the way they earning money? Ridiculous treatment !!! Hope someone from red bus would see and intervene.

I would like to share with you all a bad experience I had with Red Bus. Please be careful when you do online booking for any bus services from Red Bus. Recently I booked a ticket to travel from Delhi to Haldwani through Red Bus.in and this was booked online. It was an AC Volvo bus and the ticket cost was around Rs 1300 for 2 tickets. The Bus services providers name, pick up point & the seat number was clearly mentioned in the ticket. The pickup point given was near Anand Vihar bus stop in Delhi which is one of the worst locality of Delhi. When we tried to board the bus standing at the pickup point we were not allowed to do so and the concerned person told me that our name is not listed among the passengers list and he asked me to check other bus. We were running here and there for almost more than an hour just to understand where our bus is, whether it exists or not ?, there is no one whom you can get help from. Neither Red Bus has deployed any staff to help the customers nor the Bus Services provider. And to my surprise Bus Service provider (JBG Volvo Bus Service) are not the actual Bus Service providers after speaking to many people I realized that JBG do not have their own Buses, these buses are run by Blue World and when I went to Blue World office they ask me to check with JBG Volvo Bus Service. But my question is how will I check with JBG floks ? I could not find a single person of JBG and they had listed some numbers in the ticket none of them could be reached when needed. I have never heard of JBG but I trusted Red Bus and I though Red Bus is a reliable source to do online booking. It was a big mistake. Our scheduled departure from Delhi for Haldwani was at 22:15 on 8th May 2015 but because we were not allowed to board and it was 23:00 already and we were still at Anand Vihar. I wanted to reach Haldwani next morning at any cost. Finally I was forced to buy ticket of Non AC bus and travel on that pathetic jam packed bus sitting cramped whole night with mosquito bites. Agony is inspite to buying a AC bus ticket hoping that we can have a pleasant journey with good sleep we travelled in a Non AC bus with mosquitoes to make sure that we are on our toes whole night. When I complained Red Bus customer care about this, first of all they took almost a week to review my complaint and then came up with a reply mentioning that the refund cannot be done because as per their record the customer has already completed the journey. I asked them to show me the proof which shows that I have actually travelled, whereas I have the proof the ticket of the other bus which I actually took. Too my surprise I was not the only victim, most people who did the online booking were the victimized in similar manner and I heard from a co-passenger that it has been happening for long time. I do not expect them to refund my ticket money but I wanted to share this bad experience with the world so that everyone is aware and do not fall on such trap of Red Bus, JBG, Blue World etc. etc.

Redbus making profit out of cancellation tickets. On 2-April around 2PM booked tickets from Hyderabad to Chennai and cancelled same day at 5PM (travel time is 7PM). As per Redbus policy, for the tickets cancelled after 4PM refund is allowed. But I received SMS and email from transporter (SRM travels) confirming 50% refund and ask me to touch base with Redbus to get this. Communicated the same to Redbus with proofs, and initially one of their call center managers agreed to refund and later sent email with denying refund. I have association with Redbus since 2008 and made nearly 100+ bookings also faced couple issues and complained the same but no action noticed. But this current issue in a kind of fraud by creating base less rules and polices. Here I dn’t see option to attachment SMS & email screen. Ticket no: TH4Z97479444, PNR no: RB8FF04C7

Hi red bus team, We had very worse travel on yesterday night from kodaikanel to chennai. We have booked in k.s travels from KodaiKanel to chennai. The bus was not in proper condition to travel in hills.. No head light, no battery, not proper driver and I don't know weather he licensed driver or not. Due to bad lighting the bus met with accident unfortunately no one suffered. But driver didn't care about passengers and started driving...The way of driver approach was totally worst. Please take necessary action.. Driver name. Ganesh Travels. K.S travels

Bus Operator reallocated my seat to some other passenger without my permission and I have completed my journey without a single seat. Bus operator didn't pickup my phone call from 9 pm to 11.30 pm since his phone was ringing and busy alternatively. Due to this I missed my bus and then chased the bus and got into it. Journey Date: 17- May-2015 Ticket Number : TH6E35232272 Travels: Jyothika Travels

Dear All, I have booked one ticket from redbus.in from greater noida to kanpur on 15/may/2015. booked bus operator-New Shatabdi Bus, ServiceSharma Tours AndTravels ticket no-TH[protected] PNR No-P54XCTA Seat No-K (AC/Sleeper) Boarding place-PARI CHOWK, ZERO POINT After getting confirm ticket, i reached the boarding place before time and i was waiting for bus, After the given time (11.30PM) bus came to pari chowk but bus conductor told me that there is no seat for me as bus is full, we have shown our ticket to conductor (seat number-K). Conductor told me you have reservation for my bus but we dont have seat so please contact person/link from where you have taken reservation. When i have called the number [protected] (given by redbus), he told me that we will send next bus at your boarding point, you can travel by that bus and made his phone ([protected]) switched off. We were waiting for bus for 3 hours but no bus came there and responsible person has switched off his number ([protected]). Note- point to note that pari chowk is very unsafe place where we were waiting bus for 4 hours (whole night). I will not suggest anyone to book ticket from redbus as the persons from bus operator to redbus customer support are not responsible.

We booked 9 AC sleeper tickets in SRS Travels from Madurai to Chennai (Each Rs. 850), later when we boarded the bus we came to know that its all Semi-sleeper Non-AC. We were not even notified on this regard. Very frustrated to be in this position.
