Dear sir,
I would like to log a complaint against the conductor on the TNSTC bus from Salem to Chennai on 21st Feb 2010 night.
Even though I asked specifically for a ticket to Tambaram, he gave me a ticket to Chennai which costs RS.9 extra. When asked why, he just said 'appadi thaan' meaning 'thats the way it is'.

The reason I want to log this complaint is not because I can not afford the RS.9, but there are a lot of people (for example my parents who do farming near Mettur) strive very hard even to earn 1 ruppee and even if government employees take away the money like this, where is honesty and justice?

The bus number is Salem 0878. My ticket number is AJ61658 (issued at 21:00:02 hours on 21/02/2010 from SALEM to CHENNAI). I did not notice the conductor's name, but he wears a spectacles and is a middle aged man.

I would like to know if this is acceptable.

Thank you,
Prabhu T

It is not acceptable. Either post a complaint with TNSTC senior manager leverl eople or handle it your own to get justice. Do not allow anyone to take away reason and justice.

    Hi,

    I was travelling from Villupuram to Chennai in my car on 14 Feb 2010. I started at villupuram by 5:10 Pm and reached Vikrivandi Toll Plaza at around 5:30 PM. When i was to enter one of the way to the counter a TNSTC Bus (TN 32 - 2871) Side No. 19/VPM, Thittakudi to Chennai bound, crossed on my way suddenly without any horn or signal and entered in my way to counter. I have to apply my brakes at full swing to stop my car. That driver does not mind the speed breaker also. He is not aware that he is responsible for the life of all the passengers throught the journey. This negligence and carelessness of the driver irritated me, even the executives at the toll plaza was shouting at him. But that Driver was cool and said in tamil "Naan appadithaan ootuven" (meaning: I will drive like that ony!!!!). After that i noted the number and made a complaint with the Time Keeper at Thindivanam. I was willing to give a written complaint but the time keeper was refused to get that and promised me that he will take necessary action against the driver.

    I dont know what action he took? but I would like to bring this rash driving and negligence of the driver to the following persons:
    1. The Managing Director , TNSTC Villupuram
    2. The Branch Manager, TNSTC Thitakkudi

    An humble request to the drivers of public transport: DONT PLAY WITH THE LIFE OF PASSENGERS ON BOARD AND OTHERS ON ROAD!!!!!!


    Will TNSTC take action????? or they going to support these kind of drivers??????

    TNSTC-Villupuram — Request from a Passenger

    Dear Sir,

    Most of the TNSTC Buses from Pondicherry to Chennai and Chennai to Pondicherry never stops at valid bus stops even when there is enough seats availability. But they never fail to stop at hotels at Kadapakkam/ Marakanam/Kovalam for more than 15 Mins, since they (Driver/Conductor) get free food and etc. These hotels are not so hygienic at the same time they charge heavily from the passengers.

    None of the passenger likes to stop the bus at these hotels.

    There are many passengers & working people who use these buses for going to office, are suffering every day. Hence I request you to look into this issue and help the passengers.

    Thanks & Regards

Since I don't have change I gave rs.100 for ticket to koyambedu and requested him to issue ticket. He scolded me in unparliamentary bad words not considering my age and not gave change and challenged me if you have guts get the balance from anybody. He has signed in the backside of the ticket. I am very much pained and suffered severe mental agony due to this. Kindly take necessary action against the errant conductor, compensate for my mental agony caused and refund the excess amount collected and render justice. I submit the proof whenever necessary

    Dear sir,

    Psychological Stress is one among the factor that causes cancer and other health disorders.

    I am one among the sufferer who gets anxiety when we have to travel from pondicherry to chennai via tambaram in the monday mornings.

    the anxiety develops for us right from the beginning of the weekend that whether we will get a seat to travel on monday morning. The reservation for ECR is wonderfully done but for passengers travel via tambaram they have to fight to get a seat in the morning.

    I request to provide reservations for travelling atleast on monday mornings. I have seen people quarrel in bus from the beginning till the end of journey.

    there might be reasons for not availing reservations but troubling the people to start their week with a frustration and irritation is a pathetic state in our country.

    I know government corporations take these issues very light. The incidents of quarrel and fight to get a seat among passenger happens every monday, a quick action is the need of hour before serious crimes occur.
    with less hopes and more frustrations

      we have booked a bus ticket from tuticorin to chennai. The bus was scheduled to start at 620 pm. Due to some reasons there has been a delay in the schedule, however other buses on the same route are on time. It has not occurred to the corporation to intimate relevant passengers neither reallocate any other bus for these passengers. No one is taking responsibility for this. It is high time they change this attitude towards consumers.

      I had been deputed to TUTICORIN AIRPORT from TRIVANDRUM AIRPORT for three weeks.I found most of the buses not stopping at AIRPORT.How AIRPORT will improve? If a town bus is arranged between TUTICORIN CITY to TUTICORIN AIRPORT during flight timings will be very usefull.

        My son, who is a first year college student, was travelling from Walajapet to Kancheepuram by Tamilnadu State Transport Corporation bus (Route No.156; TN 23 N 1789) on 08 Feb. 2010. He boarded the bus at Walajapet, but took a five minutes time to ask for a ticket (Ticket No.027832 with RT No 501). Though he asked for the ticket, he himself voluntarily, the conductor abused him vulgarly and shouted at him using bad language for the delay. Though he expressed sorry and requested him not to use bad language, he continued it for some time. During the travel when he asked some details from the driver, he also joined the abuse.
        Who gave them the right to use bad language and abuse badly for the mistake he did inadvertently? Is this the way for the public servants to behave like this to the younger generation? This kind of attitude and approach by the crew towards the growing young generation is totally wrong in my opinion and it is also much harmful to the society indirectly in general.
        My son was offended by this very much and wanted to know the way to express his anger towards their behavior. May I request the authorities concerned to take note and do the needful to provide facilities to express their grievances to ventilate and also to train their crew appropriately to deal with the passenger.

The office r replied i am a government servant.He didnt accept and made his shame.
        i dont know what happen later . after 10 minutes we moved but the government servant was ashamed. He alone knows the fact.

          I traveled from Madurai to Chennai in a SETC bus on 9th september 2010, The bus started its journey at 2.45PM from Mattuthavani bus stand, Madurai. The bus reached Koyembedu, Chennai at 1.30AM (Midnight). What a wonderful journey it is.

          If you guys want to waste your time, energy then you all must travel in a SETC bus. If you are going for an Interview, travel in a SETC bus.

          If you guys looking for the same experience what I had, then please book your tickets today in a nearby SETC ticket booking center.

          Please do not forget to watch Boom TV. What a wonderful channel it is. (Surely you will have headache before your destination arrives)

          Guys go ahead travel in SETC and please do not forget to share your wonderful experience.

          Thanks,
          Srinivas
          It is very worst to travel in SETC. The very irritating thing is watching the Boom tv. Not at all good songs or comedy sequence are played. they play some worst scenes and songs from the films which are certified mostly 'A'. If you are traveling back within two days you have been put to watched the same worst things.
          It creates some psychological problems, like you get irritated when we forced to watch or hearing things which we offense.

          Please change this
          can anyone provide the contact number for BOOM tv which is played in Tamil nadu Setc buses

            Dear Sir,

            My native is S.S>Kottai in Sivagangai Dist., Every bus used to stop here for Pick up & Drop off except some express buses. I was travelling from Madurai to S.S.Kottai on 16th Jan 2010, the cinductor told me that the bus will not stop there in SS Kottai & he refused to give issue the ticket. The travel tie is approximately 8:30 PM from Madurai Mattuthavani Bus stand.We were four includes my aunties & brother. I was asking to conductor to give in writing this bus will not stop in SS kottai & also the control room telephone number to contact and ask them why this will not stop?? He refused to do both. He gave ticket up to Melur & he went off without response.

            This kind of non responsible conductors and the TNSTC Team should avoid the behaviour. They should have inmplemented the 24Hr Call center number for probelms in bus itself.

            Hope we need to fight with this government bus systems and priblems to sort iut.

            Regards,
            G.Mahendiran.

              I had traveled from vilipuram to trichy by bus number TN 63 N 1195 on 15th Jan 2010.We experienced huge inconvenience since the travel time took about 3.5 to 4 hours due to very slow movement by the driver.Given that all o[censored]s have busy schedules,this is a matter to be looked into.The driver was going at a rate of 30 kmph on a highway road almost free in the afternoon.When asked about it the driver did not reply properly.He blamed the bus for not being able to speed which is absurd since the bus was destined from vilipuram to madurai.Given that the driver was also old, it is the role of TNSTC to ensure that fit drivers undertake a long distance driving as a job and not cause such problems to travelers.

                    Dear All,

                    I have travelled Yesterday[protected]from RAJAPALAM TO CHENNAI Avadi through TNSTC ultradeluxe bus. I have reserved my tickets by paying Rs.320/- from the counter. When i was boarding conductor took my reservation ticket and iisued me Ticket for Rs.305/- Instead of Rs.320/-. I asked the conductor that you have check and return only the reservation ticket to me because i am a regular passenger of TNSTC,SETC bus. He was informing me that he will give tickets worth Rs.305/-only in a rude manner and explaining me that is the rules. Then i told him i am on a official visit i have to submit my ticket if you are giving me ticket for Rs.305/-then how can i claim Rs.320/- from my office.

                    He was informing in cruel manner that he will give ticket for Rs.305/- only. If you have any thing to say you may get down. I informed him this is not a good note dont talk like this Rs.15/- is not a matter to me but i have doubt on you . He simply saying that you may comlaint to anybody. Another co-passenger who is also transport employees of the same branch informing me that if you are going to compalin him. It will not work because the concerned branch manager is very close relative to him. And he is from RULING party trade union.

                    After some time he was coming to me and informing that if you want you come or you may get down at here .That area is dense forest.

                    He made my travel in a bad way.
                    Now a days they are also behaving very abnormal to the passendger.That s why all are prefering to go by OMNI or Travels Bus.

                      I am frequent traveler in SETC from Bangalore to Tirunelveli and Tirunelveli to Bangalore. Recently I came to know that Route No: 874 UD is been cancelled which starts in Bangalore at 5PM.

                      This was running in a convenient time and most of the time reaches Tirunelveli before 6 AM. Stopping this service is forcing people to travel in the private buses. So kindly reintroduce this service again or modify the time of route no 873 (Udangudi) instead of 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM and convert this service as High way Rider so as to reach Tirunelveli before 6 AM. Most of the offices gets over by 5 PM or 5:30 PM and the buses which is starting before 5:30 PM are not very much useful to the common public who wants to travel from Bangalore.
                      2) This bus which was starting from Tirunelveli at 6 PM is also cancelled. Any bus which starts later than 6 PM will not help the people who want to go for duty. Kindly re-introduce route no: 874 or modify the timings of route no 873 to start from Tirunelveli at 6:30 PM and reach Bangalore before 6:30 PM.
                      3) Opening for online – booking to public will be very helpful and reduces the rush and the manpower in the reservation counter. This also helps SETC to plan and introduce special services during festival season.
                      4) Kindly introduce another boarding point near St. John’s Hospital at Bangalore similar to the Electronic City boarding point.

                        I travelled on 22/11/09 from Koyembedu Bus stand to Coimbatore by TNSTC A/C 10.00PM bus.


                        While sitting in the but itself at 9.45 PM it was notice by the passenger and driver of the bus that the A/C was not working. When the passengers complained to the driver and the conductor they initially said that it will be alright after we start then latter they said there is a problem and it will be rectified after Vellore. But nothing was done. Entire night all the passenges travelled with sweat and soffaction.

                        After paying Rs.450 /- for a/c fair we had to travel without sleep in soffaction. We could have travelled in a non A/C bus comfortably with lesser fair if they could have disclosed the truth before staring from Chennai.

                        My seat number was 32.


                        No refund of money was offer. When asked the conductor said that we have to contact the booking office from where the ticket was taken.

                        Please forward this complaint to the concerned authority and request him to initiate action against the resposible person who has decided to run the bus without a/c instead of making an alternate arrangement.

                            I boarded in a TNSTC ( Gudiyattam depot ( vilupuram zone) ) bus going to Chennai in Gudiyattam.

                            In normal days the bus fare is around Rs 55 to koyambedu from gudiyattam
                            further in normal days there is stage in ponamallae,guindy,Koyambedu.

                            But today they collected Rs 70 to koyambedu further they told that there is no stage for ponamallae,guindy only koyambedu

                            They told that even though if you get down in ponamallae you have to pay Rs 70. When we asked them they told that the officals in the TNSTC told them to collect fares and indulge in such act

                            Sir I feel that the fault is with the conductor ( they are acting on there own to show more collection during festival season ) because one person got into bus in ponamallae he got ticket to guindy stage

                            The details in am having in my ticket are

                              Hi,

                              On Friday, dated:[protected] Time(3.40.00PM) journey (from pondicherry to chennai), the bus fare from Pondicherry to chennai (Thiruvanmyur) is only Rs.48/-. But the driver took Rs.55 and arguing that even if we get down at Mahabalipuram, we need to pay Rs.55. I told him that even last week I paid only Rs.48 but he was constantly arguing with me saying if I have to travel I need to pay Rs. 55 else I can get down and catch the bus which takes Rs. 48.

                              I didnt note the bus number. Bus started at 3.40 pm from Pondcherry bus stand. Usually all buses from Pondicherry to Chennai on Sundays from 3 to 5 pm will be reserved on the spot for Rs.5.

                              It will be helpful if this complaint reaches the reponsible person.

                              Thanks & Regards,

                              it will be most helpful if the TNSTC-VPM bus operation made during the night hours from chengalpet to broadway (or) tambaram with all stop service, though the bus fare made twice than the daytime fare. Thanks in advance.

                                I'm also a passenger like others,my complaint issues may be funny but we've to think of it,nowadays in some of the buses we may see express service boards and they're getting 18% to 20% of more fares,but same speed and it shows indirectly they're increased the fares like,govt should think of this and take an immediate step,
                                I'm also a passenger like others, my complaint issues may be funny but we've to think of it. I have Reserved two tickets journy date of 20th of Oct 2009 4:00 O'clk bus from Nagercoil to Bangalore.
                                When we entered into the Bus Conductor told us to change the reserved seats. We have not agreed for the same, since it is reserved one.

                                When we have reached Bommnahalli(Bangalore) next day early morning 4:30am. We (husband and wife) asked driver to stop in Bomnahalli Bus stop, They Intensionally did't stoped the Bus over there, because we have not agreed to change reserved seat.
                                As per my knowledge need to suspend both stupid drivers from Transportation.
                                If it leads like this, nobody will look into SETC. Private is far better.

                                  Pondicherry - Villupuram, express buses has been arranged by TNSTC, bus normally run in the same speed of buses that are running route number 248.

                                  The only thing is, it wont stop in any bus stops. They neither obey traffic rules nor responding the opposite side counters. This is a seriou issue. How to handle the expresses buses in the opposite direction

                                  Regards

                                    Sir,
                                    Requesting to start some additional fast passenger services from Thenkasi to Punalur and vice versa as the meter gauge train service had been cancelled for the gauge conversion. Nowadays commuters are forced to depending parallel services to reach their homes from both places due to the lack of buses. It is a great solace to the commuters if provide additional buses s in these routes (THENKASI-PUNALUR)

                                    Sir,
                                    I am Requesting to extend some long distanced services commencing from Schenctotai such as Bangalore, Chennai, and Coimbatore to Punalur, Kerala State. Punalur is just 50km away from schencottai and the permit approval can be resolved by entering into a new interstate agreement by the both state transport authorities.

                                    Sir,
                                    I would like to inform your kind attention that the ERNAKULAM-TOOTHUKKUDI services run by SETC are mainly plying through Punalur KOLLAM, ALAPUZHA instead ofPUNALUR, PATHANAMTHITTA, KOTTAYAM or PUNLUR, ADUR, KAYAMKULAM, ALAPUZHA.
                                    The same route run by KSRTC is choosing KOTTAYAM, PATHANAMTHITTA PUNALUR because this is the main route towards EKM from Punalur(25 KM lessthan Via KOLLAM) and is connecting KTM CHRY PTA. Please look into this matter.

                                      i m using vodafone prepaid connection for 5 years but in my area(murugesh palaya) if i go inside of room
                                      there is no tower signal.in rainy season we r not able to come out
                                      hai,
                                      All of you know about this, to day i travelled by tnstc bus from avnashi to tirupur, Ticket no :VRP-19 62659 for rs.4/-. I saw this that the bus went to new bustand only in S.A.P stopping some passengers waiting to go to new busstand they enquired to go to new bustand the blady bostard conductor lied it is not go to newbustand. i shout the bladdy but he not heared my words. so you dont use tnstc buses the drivers and conductors and the transport officials may go to take a mud pot to beg their food in the busstops who the peoples are waiting for the private buses.
