Had booked 3 tickets for my wife and her 2 colleagues for Pune (wakad) to Ahmedabad . the bus booking was done for Volvo Multi-Axel A/C Sleeper bus . booked for rs 1400/-
The bus which came was A/C sleeper and its ticket was for Rs 990/- only.
The bus arrived late and reached 2 hours late
It stopped for dinner at 00.30 am.
After 1 am the bus didn't stop for bio break. around 7am had to fight with the driver to stop for break, the diver said you can go in the open area for bio break which was very humiliating .
Ticket no-TR9H50668360

    I am travelling from Hyderabad to Kandukur for housing warming event, booked a bus with Primo label assuming that buses are decent & can travel peacefully but I have experienced bitter travel of my life
    1. bus delayed by 1:30 hour at the departure
    2. bus break-down at 2AM in the morning & service took almost 4 hours halt
    3. Few hours later bus met accident with tree, am injured when I enquired with redbus, they are saying if bus operator pays us we will reimburse the same
    4. bus is delayed by 6 hours to my destination

    redbus is still backing the same operator in that route (kamkshi tours & travels)

      I missed the bus due to heavy traffic plus the operator didn't wait for even 2 mins also after being informed. I would like to get the refund.

        Dear sir
        Today I RameshKumawat was travelling from rangmahal to IISER along with my three friends and we asked conductor to for four tickets. Bus conductor took 128 rupees but gave me the ticket only for 32 rupees. When we asked for 3 other tickets he said don't worry I will drop you at your destination. Then we insist him to give other tickets he argued with us and gave us tickets of only 90 rupees instead of 96 rupees and said at this time bus will go to chirayu only not IISER. It is my goodness that I am dropping you IISER, that is why I am taking extra money. Although there were 15 to 20 passengers in bus. If buses are not going to IISER then what is the meaning of bus 204, we can go through SR5.
        This was very bad experience.
        Similarly that conductor was also not giving accurate tikets to other passengers also. Same problem was also faced by many of my colleagues in bus no. 204.
        I request you please look into this matter and warn to conductor related to his corrupt behaviour.

          I had booked a ticket from Kolhapur to pune on 17th of august. The journey was supposed to leave Kolhapur at 11 am. At around 8 am when i recieved a call from a nakoda travels representative stating that the bus that was supposed to take me, has suffered breakdown, and I couldn't travel that day. The representative also said that redbus will issue a full refund to me as they have informed redbus about the breakdown. I felt assured that I will get my money back, and booked a ticket for a later time on the same day. Before boarding the bus, I called the Nakoda representative yet again just to make sure that I'll be getting my money back from redbus itself and not Nakoda travels. I also opened a chat complaint with redbus as the ticket of the bus that suffered the breakdown, didnt show as cancelled. On first contact, redbus told me the issue will be resolved within 72 hours. After iychecked with the chat everyday to se if there were any updates and even tried to provide new information everytime. But unfortunately I was met with the same response that "We couldn't get in contact with the bus operator..." Which I know to be a lie.
          I still kept good faith and waited for the entirety of 72 hours. But I doubt that my complaint is even being read by a real human being. Hence I am foreced to post my complaint here and if even this dosent work, I will be going to a consumer court.
          I don't know if the issue is on nakoda travels side or redbus side or is caused by a third party; and I dont care either Its redbus' responsibility to get me my money back first and solve the issue on their own time.
          This is extremely dissapointing from redbus, but I will not stop till I recive my money.

            I have booked the ticket twice but payment failed and asked me to book some other seat, but the money got deducted twice. Almost Rs1600 money got deducted (800. * 2 times). Now how can I book another ticket as I don't have money and poor response from red bus chat agent. 45 mins so far still chat going but no reply . You should revise the money immediately or give some response properly just for our satisfaction.

              I booked a bus ticket from redbus from panipat to jaipur. Amount has been deducted from Gpay but my app is not showing any confirmation related to booking. And now there is no way to talk to the customer care. They are just making me talk to the computer on call and in chat with us option there is also no option to chat with executive. This was my first experience with redbus. And it was the worst one. I’m never gonna use this stupid app ever again in my life.

                  Greetings from redBus!

                  We regret the inconvenience caused during your journey. We escalated your complaint to the bus operator. As per the update received from them, the bus had operated successfully and customer was waiting at the koyambedu bus stand, but the boarding point was selected as Perungalathur Bus Stop at 11 PM. Therefore, bus operator has refused to initiate refund.

                  Regards,
                  Team redBus.

                      Dear Team,

                      I made a booking on 29 july from basti to Delhi.

                      I made a payment of Rs 3330/- thru Googlepay.

                      The payment has been debited from my end and credited into your account but the system failed and the ticket was not issued.

                      I tried calling customer care and they insisted that the payment is not rec'd in your end and asked me to check with my Bank.

                      I have checked with my Bank and found that the payment of Rs 3330/-has been duly credited to redbus.

                      The UPI transaction ID[protected] date 29 July transaction successfully

                      many time contacts customer support do not any help and not return

                              I booked an online ticket for 11:50 pm (12 Aug 22) Holiday Appeal Private Limited through redbus from CHD to KASOL. I followed up with the conductor and travel agents before reaching boarding points, in that time they told me, the bus is delayed by 30 mins. it was already late for me, after some time I tried to call again, but that time they told me that driver had chosen a different shortest route and they'll not be able to come to the boarding point as they were already far away from that point. it was a very terrible experience with redbus, I was waiting for them at 1 AM and they were giving such excuses. I could not find any other alternate, now I need a complete refund back. but the traveling agent did not respond.
