    This is Dr. Kishore Kumar from Chennai. I travelled from Coimbatore to Chennai on 26/05/2022, 9:30 pm in A1 Travels bus number TN66AH6825. I had a shocking and very offensive experience with the conductor. Although I was on time to the boarding point, he refused to share the location and used abusive language stating me to cancel the ticket. After I boarded, on further argument, he attempted to physically abuse me. I would like to escalate this to a police complaint discussing with my lawyer. Kindly respond from your side.

          Had pathetic experience travelling with Zing bus partner from Red Bus Pune. We had booked return ticket from Pune to Ahmedabad on 24th May 2022 with PNR no ZB[protected]. Faced multiple issues firstly there was no means to contact the conductor on mobile no [protected] as same was continuosly switched off. My senior citizen parents and my sister were travelling and they were getting delayed due to heavy traffic but somehow we rushed and reached the pick up point and boarded the bus. My parents are diabetic and post requesting the driver multiple times to stop the bus for urination he didn't stop the bus and for dinner too he stopped the bus at midnight 1 pm till then they were starving and couldn't take medicine. Our entire bag which had bedsheets and food items were kept at the back as we boarded the bus in hurry. We requested the conductor to please give the bag as it was extreme cold in the bus but he denied.My parents had to struggle entire night due to extreme cold and my father is suffering with high fever. Who will take responsibility? My parents and my sister had suffered a lot due to the driver and conductor rude attitude. This type of service was not expected from Red Bus and strict action has to be taken for harassing senior citizen customers else I will file legal complaint for harassment of senior citizen.

                I had booked ticket on redBus site on 14th May 2022 from Jammu to Amritsar for travel on same day with New Shivam Travles at 11:30 AM . Bus ticket PNR number 675TDJNZ.
                Red bus did not share the bus number and shared only the operator number and no bus tracking was available.

                I communicated with operator about my boarding location well in advance.
                around 11:30 i started communicating with operator for the bus location, he had no updates on the bus and only the words like will let you know soon.

                Later almost 45 minutes he said bus is not available you will have to make your own arrangements for the travels and will repay the booking amount.

                I had tried communicating with Support on RedBus app for the entire situation but no help and there was also the same line "will get back to you."

                Now its been more than 9 days there is no update on the refund from operator as well as redBus.

                Please refund my money ASAP and stop looting people.

                Thanks

                  I have booked my 4 seats from Delhi to Mussoorie for a travel dated 22/05/2022. First of all at the last moment your service provider "India Tours and Travel" changed our booked seat. Bus conditions are pathetic. AC is not working at all, totally ineffective. If bus is mentioned as an AC vehicle then what is the usage of fans inside bus Costumer dealing is very poor. Behaviour of Attendant on bus is very poor. Atleast redbus have to conduct a survey for the service provider for their services and buses quality prior to add such useless service providers in their fleet.

                  In addition to above complaint, i forgot to mention that first the bus was cancelled, then seat schedule is changed. Poor hygiene inside bus. No curtains. Bus deck is not cleaned, rubbish material and sand is observed. Due to size limits, unable to attach more images.

And he dropped me 10km before my dropping point where no one is there, no auto, no buses . I struggled lot today . Please don't have these kind of bus service in red bus. It will impact redbus rating.

                          I booked a bus from Mumbai to Mangalore on May 14, 2022. The travel date was May 15, 2002. I selected the boarding point as Ghatkoper (E) at 12:20 PM. I reached the location at the right time, and I contacted the person, and he told me that the bus was cancelled and they could only provide tickets for the next day's trip. I immediately messaged the RedBus complaint portal and they assured me they would check with the operator and issue a refund. And they also registered a complaint with complaint number 18514845. The Redbus team is now saying that the bus was not cancelled.

                                  Even customer care only works in IVR format and no option to connect to Customer care team to discuss this issue in details.
                                  Sent them query via help section and on social media DM but this also now 2 days over but no concrete response.

                                  I need refund in source account.

                                      With lots of frustration, we would like to inform you that an attempt to book a train ticket (details given above) was made through your portal. The payment was deducted but due to issues at your end the ticket could not be booked. It was assured from your end that the money would get refunded within seven working days which expired on 3rd May, 2022. Unfortunately, till date we did not get back the money which has raised a serious doubt on the goodwill of the company.

                                      I have decided never to book my ticket through your portal in future and would share my horrible experience with my friends through social media unless you take up the matter seriously and do the needful at your end immediately to refund the money back.

                                        My bus got cancelled by the bus operator one hour prior to the departure time. However, I still haven't gotten the refund and nobody from red bus is attending to my complaint.
                                        Kindly see to it and help me get the refund ASAP.
                                        I am attaching the ticket screendhot and cancellation message for your reference.
