Address: Chennai

Dear Sir, I want to register a complaint regarding my travel(REDBUS.IN). I booked a ticket with Redbus for 13th Feb travel (Chennai to Dindigul for a pilgrimage trip and returned date on 14th Feb with different bus) for Lukshmi Narayan Travels and refer the PNR LNTL299C2333.. I got the SMS/email (11th Feb date of incident) from Redbus and stating that the ticket was cancelled and amount will be credited into your account like that. Then called customer care number and they simply stating that, we have rights to cancel the ticket at any time without your knowledge like that.. I was frustrated and they didn't speak about genuine / Politely. Pls find attached My trip details, 13th Feb and Return on 14th Feb and called trip as well for reference.

    They said they will refund if I book another ticket within half an hour which I did. There too they charged rs 100 more. And for the previous ticket that I cancelled within 15 mins of booking they charged me Rs 390 more. There customer care can never be reached. Is this a service or extorting money?

          Date of incident: 05/02/2021.
          Description: I boarded the bus at Hebbal(Bangalore) to Hyderabad booked via redbus.in and my ticket number is TQ[protected].
          The bus is not at all following the cleanliness including the Covid19 guidelines. I found nearly 5-6 cockroaches and few flies roaming below my pillow in the bus. The seats were too dusty and full of foul smell. Due to this the passengers may be effected with unconditional health issues. Small children will be effected more. These redbus guys mentioned everything in clear about the Coivd19 guidelines. I was attacked with skin infection today in the morning as i deboarded the bus in Hyderabad. I would like to claim for my re-fund including the health charges.

                            This mail is regarding today's afternoon trip . I booked an auto from Urli Devachi St. MAthews Academy and Junior College to Salunke Vihar St. Mathews Academy and Junior College for which the charge was RS.103 only.. The vehicle Number MH12 RP 5675 came latearound 15 minutes late. When the driver started instead of driving straight to our destination, he went to fill CNG which is around 3.5 kms from St. MAthews Academyand Junior College Urli Devachi campus. After he dropped us at Salunke Vihar I paid him RS. 103 as this was the amount shown when I booked. But this driver was charging us Rs. 171 for the extra time he took to fill the CNG for his vehicle which is not at all fair.. I also told him that he should have filled CNG or should have cancelled it if he had not filled to drive smoothly. I refused to pay the extra amount but he stood there asking for the extra money which was charged due to his personal work . I seriously feel such drivers should be given enough knowledge . I am very sorry to say that I had to face this issue which is the first time as I regularly book autorickshaw from Uber morning and afternoon..

                            Waiting for positive responseI had booked an autorickshaw from St. Mathews Academy and Junior College(Urli Devachi ) to

It will be credited back in 5 to 7 business days as per the standard banking procedure. Kindly wait for the refund credit as per the timeline shared. We appreciate your kind patience in this regard.
