        We a family of four members were traveling from panaji to bangalore. The bus no. Py1452. My husband got down to buy a bottle of water. The driver started the bus and wouldn't stop for him to get into the bus.in spite of many requests and begging the driver to stop, he stopped only after 40 kms. My husband had to take taxi to reach us. It's was very horrifying and scary experience to travel by vrl.

            Journey timings not proper for nasik to nagpur by vrl on 23/12/2018 specified that it will reach at 8 am on 24/12/2018 but reaches at 10.15am...Whereas from nagpur to pune journey on 24/12/2018 the vrl travels staff behaviour is pathetic..They don't have manners..one more issue is regarding Side safety vertical bars is not there and blanket is very thin..After paying a lot still i didn't get good service.thats unfair
            Booking Number [protected] from Bengaluru to Vasai ( Mumbai ) and where is the material? why it has gone to Phalghar? how many days you want to deliver the goods? is there any right personnel is there in your VRL Group? what business you are doing?
            Despite being express highway the bus driver took for about 11+ hours to reach Belgaum from Bangalore. Too many unnecessary stops for a long time. Expected arrival time was 7.30 and the bus reached at 9.40.

                  Everybody in bus managed to catch bus in time and bus started in time. But bus waited for more than 1 hour for single passenger in katraj wasting time of 30+ppl who might need to attend some function, office work, meetings on time.
                  Very unprofessional behavior from driver and person boarding ppl at katraj.
                  I paid 1000+ amount to reach my destination in time.
                  Bus no. Is ka25c9705
                  Please look into this matter.
                  Else nobody would travel with this because of the delays.
                  15 mins waiting time acceptable becoz of traffic issues. Not 1.5 hours at katraj.

                        The driver who started driving from guruguntepalya, Bangalore on this date, given me a call through phone used my name before starting conversation...
                        As i replied him i am little ahed and pick me up...
                        As he did the same, soon i get into the bus he asked my dear number, i replied with my name which he used during a call...
                        He put the list he had with him and told me to find the seat number...

                        Is this the way of taking to the customer???

                        Is this the way VRL recruit the drivers or gives the training to them of how to behave???

                            Hi,

                            My journey details:
                            Name: Azharuddin Kuntoji
                            Date of journey 18th November at 6pm
                            Mahalingapur to Bangalore
                            Bus number : KA 25 D 0659
                            Ticket number:TMCB93427673
                            PNR number: 489!19005800##491!19005799##490!19005798~14708138

                            I have booked 3 seats for 3200rs from Mahalingapur to Bangalore using redBus.in. Seat numbers L13, L14, L15.

                            Complaint:
                            This is regarding poor bathroom and food service when stopped for dinner after crossing Hungund at 9:30-10 pm.

                            I am frequent traveller of VRL busses from Bangalore to Mahalingapur. But this time quality of bathroom is horrible and not at all maintained. There is only one bulb for 3bathrooms, ofwhich only one bathroom is available. And it’s worst for ladies bathroom, they had to be in line to use that one working washrrom. Also the restaurant is not allowing outside food. There is no place to sit and eat our home food. People are sitting on road side and eating food. Is this how you treat your customers ?

                            VRL is very reputed travel company in India. I expect proper higien conditions for customers from eating food which they get from their homes to using washrooms. We are travelling by paying huge amounts compared to other bus services. We expect better service in this regard. As this is our right.

                            Please arrange for better hotel during this journey which has better washrooms and food or reimburse my travel expense for this horrible experience.

                            Hotel name: Hotel Sai Dham.
                            Please get in touch with me @[protected] for photos and detailed inputs.

                            Thanks.
                            Azhar

                              Bus was travelling from bangalore to kundapura on nov 5, 2018. I was one of the passengers. The driver was speeding and due to his carelessness we had an accident. Luckily no passenger was injured. But it took 2 hours for arrangement of another bus. I have already written a mail regarding this issue (With attached photos of the incident) to take serious action on the driver to [protected]@vrllogistics.com the mail id as mentioned in their website. But no reply or any apology regarding the incident has come yet. Worst customer care ever.

                                    Sir,

                                    On 02 10 2018, I tried to book a ticket through Internet Banking for journey of my sister, Ms. Shashikala from Hubballi to Pune on 09 10 2018 for Seat No.L-17 (Hubballi- Mumbai Volvo Sleeper Bus departing Hubballi at 9.45 PM). My account was debited for Rs, 1418.00, but the ticket was not generated. I tried again 3 more times, but the ticket was not generated even though my account was debited with Rs.1418.00 all the 3 times.This, I presume, may be due to some technical issues in the payment gateway. Thus, in all Rs.5672/- (1418 X 4) was debited to my account without generation of any ticket.

                                    Thereafter, I booked the ticket manually at the counter of your Hubballi Office for the same journey & seat number (Transaction No.14351913 and PNR No.[protected].

                                    In view of the foregoing, I request you to refund the excess amount of Rs.5672.00 9(1418 X 4)debited to my account, at your earliest.

                                    Regards,

                                    K RAMACHANDRA BHAT.

                                      Hi,

                                      I am a frequent vrl traveler in pune - nagpur route. However i will not be taking vrl bus again in my life due to what happened in my last journey.

                                      I was travelling in bus no mh09 em4152 on[protected]Pune - nagpur)
                                      When i was about to get down on the last stop (Ashirwad talkies nagpur), a man entered into the bus, i thought he is a cleaner so i gave him the way, i was about to get down when i remembered that i forgot my charger on my seat, so i turned to seat (U8) to get the charger and saw that the man (Cleaner) who entered in the bus earlier was masturbating on the 1st seat. Being alone in the bus, i hurried towards the gate and got down. I complained to the driver but not sure if my complaint will be noticed by him. Hence writing to you.

                                      Kindly take the appropriate action.

                                      Regards,
                                      Shraddha
                                      I was traveled by VRL bus where by mistake I forgot my spect.when I called driver his behaviour is rude. I called office he has given me one Spect which is not mine. Again I called driver so he told washingwala given him the same spect. But yet I have not received my spect which was at VRL bus.
                                      As a regular traveller I had used all kind of bus facility across Karnataka today dated 20/10/2018 I had taken your Volvo multixxl No.Ka25c8920 bus from shahapur to Bangalore and I paid High price on regular ticket Rs 2015... What kind of facilities your providing to customer! Where you can't provide a drinking water facility to customers?

                                        Today we had exam but due to some technical problem and driver laziness. We have missed the exam because of VRL travels. Exams are life deciding because of VRL we are missed exam . Actually bus arrival time was 5.40am but even 10.30 am we are on the way. Driver is very irresponsible.
                                        Even we have asked them maximum at what time we will reach the destination, they told that 8.30am. It was fine because our exam was at 10 o clock but even at 10.30am we are on the way.
                                        Kindly take care of it because of business they can mention time like any thing and spoil the students life.
