I was trying to book two tickets from kirnahar to kolkata sbstc at 6:00am on 23/04/19. First time money is deducted but tickets are not issued. When i rechecked those two seats seat no 8&9 remained vacant. Again i booked that two seats. But the previous deducted money is not refunded.
So, please refund the money as soon as possible.

      I have booked one ticket from burdwan to kolkata (Esplanade) online with ticket no p[protected]
      Which was supposed to depart from burdwan at 9.00am. The bus was supposed to stop at telipukur but they gave no stoppage at telipukur today, so i had to book again for 10.10 am bus from burdwan. I along with 7-8 persons who are waiting at telipukur bus stand faced such kind of harassment today which is not at all acceptable. They have neither informed us through any sms nor give any notice. I want full refund of my ticket that i booked online, please give me the contact number of the concerned person with whom i have to contact regarding refund. Please do the needful

        I tried to book ticket on 08.03.2019 from asansol to karunamoyee for journey date on 09.03.2019. Money deducted from bank account of axis bank during online payment but ticket not generated due to some error. This was happened from sbstc user account.

          I booked 3 online tickets in haldia to kolkata book fair special on 03.02.2019 (Ticket no : p[protected]) through sbstc mobile app. The copy of my ticket mailed in my registered e mail.
          But after reaching haldia township bus terminus found no such buses. Also there is no information available at sbstc ticket counter. No assistance from counter received and the depot number displayed in counter found switched off.
          Finally i had to book private car to reach book fair with my family after 30 minutes of harrashment.
          Such incident only demolish trustworthiness & creaditability of sbstc.

          I register my complain in sbstc official (Complain) whatsapp no. [protected] on the same day but no response received.

          Now i need refund of my money & compensation for my harrashment.

                I bought a ticket (Person# 3) today morning for the route kolkata to midnapore. Issued a ticket at 10:35:56 am for departure time 10:40 am for bus no 7012. Said bus wasn't parked in the designated stand for the route. I repeatedly searched for the bus with my family but we didn't get the bus. When i reported in the counter they said that bus has already left the stand. They demanded for taking me another ticket by paying again for the ticket. While i was aksing them for rescheduling the same ticket, then 4 staffs along with incharge saying me "aukat ki ache".
                I need immediate action on those staffs and definitely i want to show them my aukat.

                    Have few video recorder but system here could not entertain seemed driver was under :
                    False pride of his erratic practice of driving to win / make up late running by hook or crook, speeding too even at 40 km/miles restrictions warning
                    Secondly seemed he was making girls or khaini or pan masala orally managing one hand on steering
                    Constantly veering steering invited risks to other road users as well as self of so many lives, bus had been driven to edge going down the left and right edge of NH OFF the metal part rd surface
                    Driver creating inconvenience for passengers in the bus by smoking. This was in durgapur kolkata bus of 4.45pm on 22nd January 2019

                      I was traveling from durgapur to karunamoyee on 11.01.2019 in sbstc with my father [age 65] boarding at 05:50 pm. The bus passed at haldiram at 11:00 pm. Then i requested the conductor to give a stop at teghoria bus stop as the bus was running too late and that was almost midnight. He replied 'it is very common, what is ur problem?' after that, they don't stop at teghoria bus stop. And then they stop at baguiati at 11:20 pm. Then we were not getting any transport to reach teghoria till 11:50 pm. My father was suffering from joint pain. They showed such inhuman behavior. Please arrange stoppage on demand on the way when the buses run late especially at night.

                        Dear team,
                        This is like the many times that i am travelling in sbstc buses, but this time i am literally annoyed with the service.
                        The bus is not supposed to behave or accommodate people more than the nner of seats available. Then what is it that they are taking up people like some other local buses??
                        If it is supposed to behave like a local business and stop every now and then at every freaking stop then why are we paying 185 rupees anyway??

                        A very annoyed customer.

                          Sir, my name is smarajit shome, my registered mobile number is [[protected]].
                          I booked a ticket of rs. 140.00 for journey date 27/10/2018 in two attempts.in first attempt the amount was deducted but seat not booked.in second attempt the ticked booked & again amount deducted. But till today (29/12/2018) two months passed, no money refunded for the first failed transaction. I have the proof of my bank passbook reflecting the deduction of amount. Their customer help line is not responding. They are saying that they can't tell anything about the refund status.
                          Please sir, solve the issue. I am a student & it's feeling very bad to contact the sbstc help line number again & again without any solution.
                          Thanking u

                              I was travelling from kolkata to panagarh on 18/12/2018, today through sbstc bus (Bus no wb39a3575). Temperature was below 13c. At the time of booking the bus ticket they (The sbstc staffs at ticket counter) assured me that the bus will go through darjeeling more (Near to panagarh bazaar), then i booked the ticket. The bus leave kolkata at 5.45 pm. But after some time when i asked the driver and conductor they strongly denied to listen me and tell me the bus will go through what the conductor want. But i request him again and again that i will face a big problem if you drop another place other than drop location. But the driver and conductor did not listen me and forced me to leave the bus at kaksa (2.5km from darjeeling more). Atlast at 10pm i had to walk 30minuted to reach my destination. Totally horrible, pathetic and disappointing experience. I am very much shocked that how can a govt. Of west bengal organization can do that with their passenger? How two government employee can do that? Are they become owner and do whatever they want? Should they did not listen passengers' problem?

But the guy from counter told that ticket is not booked/confirmed. We then again paid the amount to book 2 seats from counter.br...
