    Travelled on 28th Feb 2021 from Bangalore to Pune in Anand travels bus booked through Red bus. Actual dropping point was Wakad but dropped off in Swargate which is 26km from Wakad. \This cost me 500INR to travel to my location but redbus gave me refund of 100 Rs as compensation for last minute change in dropping point because of negligence from Bus operator.

      I had book 3 tick onward journey ticket for Coimbatore From Bangalore and one return ticket. for 6 people.

      One of the passenger could not travel so asked the customer care representative to cancel ticket for that but they said Since the person who was the primary passenger their bus operator does not allow cancellation of primary passenger.

      In confusion the customer care representative cancelled the return ticket which I never told him to cancel.

      I got cancellation message I asked the representative if he cancelled the ticket he told no he did not cancel the tickets.

      He offered Rs200 voucher if I cancel the entire ticket and rebook the tickets for the entire passengers. I denied the offer.

      I got suspicious if he had cancelled the return journey ticket he checked again and told he had cancelled the ticket. Upon asking him he told you only asked me to cancel ticket, changing his own claim of not cancelling it earlier.

      With this act of his I was furious and he told he will connect to their survisor and she was offering Rs100 compesation for the ticket which mistakenly cancelled by the earlier care representative. I denied the offer I told i want total refund no cancellation fee As I dint cancel the ticket. She told that cannot be done.

      She promised that I will be getting a call from redbus to take this matter further but 48 hours are over no one has called me yet.

      I have recording of the entire conversation.

      Hi Deepak,

      Greetings from redBus!

      We did check the complaint details and tried connecting you multiple times after our initial discussion.
      As discussed on the call earlier, we are sincerely sorry for the mistake from the agent's end.

      We see that the NEFT details were requested via email twice. Unfortunately, we haven't received the details yet. We tried calling you again to request the same, but the calls went unanswered.

      We would request you to revert with the NEFT details via '[protected]@redBus.in' for us to be able to process the cancellation charges as promised.

      We hope this helps.

      Note: We never ask for UPI PIN or Account details over the phone. Please do not share the same.

      Thanks and regards,
      Team redBus

      I have sent the neft details twice to ur care email id as told by your care representative.
      deepaknari's [Complaint's author] reply, Mar 16, 2021
      I have sent the NEFT details for the third time now.
      Why don't you return the refund to the source account were the money was deducted.
      Anyway I have sent the account details to mail ID [email protected] from my registered mail ID.

      You anyway can refund to source account as well. Why is it a problem?
      Is it another way to cause inconvenience?

                                  Sir,
                                  I want to take your kind attention about inconvenience happens to me and my family.

                                  I, abhinav raj have booked qty-02 ticket from red bus for the journey from gurugram to amritsar on date 19 feb 2021 .I was waiting at rajiv chowk (boarding point) with my family and child and lots of peferable lagguage .I have booked auto rockshaw for reaching boarding points before half an hours before but there is no bus seen at boarding points.I am very surprised to see this and called to red bus operator, after many attempt, operator receive the call and told about bus cancellation.They cannot cancel the bus on the same day if cancelled they have to provide another bus but they donot do the same .
                                  For this journey, I have taken leave, which waste my number of leave day beacause leave is limited in my profession and not got leave easily so it is not only wasted my leave day but also loss of money and allowance of whole leave duartion.I was mentally depressed after hearing about bus cancellation and not completeing about my trip to amritsar .
                                  So i want to also claim Rs 50000/- as compesnsation for all my loss and mentally harrasement of sudden trip cancellation .
                                  You are requested to take matter as sympathetically and claim my compensation as earliest.

                                  Thanks
