    Shifted car from Pune to bhopal. Paid the amount on the basis of soft copy provided by your staff name kumar. But after that have not received the hard copy of the bill even after one month. Without the bill I cannot claim the amount from my office. Asked for the bill many times from Mr Kumar, but all no use. Today tomorrow daily giving some excuse don't know what is there in just doing courier the already generated bill. Also the attitude shown by the staff is very rude, m verry disappointed by the service provided by you and your staff. How can we rely on you in next transfer. Vrl car carrier.

      I was travelling to Bijapur to Bangalore on 6/7/2018.
      Bus Number- KA 25 C 9562.
      My boarding place was Muttagi cross. Departure timing was 8.45pm. I was at boarding place 10 minutes early only. But the bus came at 9.35. Almost 50 minutes delay. I was with my family and first off all there is no place to sit or there is no VRal office at Muttagi cross. I was carried 3 bags and driver was shouting 3 bags are not allowed. And that too he was telling very rudely. He was telling that don't ask the reason for delay also. Then I shouted on him and finally they allowed me to carry that bags.
      I am a regular customer of VRL, even though if seats are available in SRS I never travelled in that. But these kind of situations or behaviours happening from VRL drivers on very frequently I am thinking and strongly suggesting everyone to switch to other travels.
      Team VRL take the action on these two drivers and I need reply to this message.
      Otherwise I am going to file the complaint officially.

        I was travelling from vadodara to ahmedabad on 21st june, 2018 alongwith my family in my car. One bus of vrl travels was drving side by side / behind / ahead o[censored]s. Time was around 8 a. M.in the morning. I could not take bus's registration number or other details.

        First of all driver's driving was very rough. He was overtaking from wrong side & from service track on the road with speed of 90/100 kmph.

        Nearby ringroad exit of express way (Towards rajkot); my car was in first track & your bus was in second track. Suddenly driver of vrl travels bus overtack my car with bringing bus much nearer to my car. This has resulted in shot break applying by me to my car to prevent accident with vrl travels bus. So fortunately i was managed to avoid crash with your bus back. Due to sudden break application, my mother (Seating in second row seat) & wife seating aside driver seat in front) felt down.

        In addition unfortunately the volvo bus coming behind my car could not apply such shot break which resulted in hitting of the front of that bus to my car. It has damaged a lot to car.

        This has happened due to very rough & very fast driving of the driver of vrl travels bus especially in wrong track. He was overtaking from service road (Third) track to second track & then from second (Middle) track to first (Right hand side) track with very high speed & with sharp turn. His attitude was driving a racing car in foreign country like we saw in movies... By doing this bad driving he is not only putting many lives (Of the passengers travelling through bus) on high risk but also casing the same high risk to other vehicles travelling along on the road.

        Vrl bus' driver has noticed the accident occuring due to his bad driving but shockingly he didnt even stop for a moment & runaway with bus pretending nothing has happened.

                Vrl bus nowadays is just increasing the fare but the bus is sooo unhygienic to travel sleeper non a/c bus. Every time i have observed the bus is not fit for like no journeys. Almost 4times now bus is broke down and we as a passenger have to suffer for that. No one is listening to the issues of passengers. I request the vrl travels maintenance team to at least keep the bus clean
                Jayendra Mishra nagpur cleaner and a bus driver along with him using rude and abusive words with even ladies customer. Worst and pathetic service by them, no response from vrl customer care when asked to help
                We travelled back and forth from Mysore in vrl non AC sleeper bus.The driver drove the bus at very high speeds even in the ghat section.We almost fell off our beds.The travel was very uncomfortable for the whole trip.They are compromising speed over comfort of the ride.If this continues, you will definitely loose a bunch of loyal customers

                  Hi.
                  We were traveling from goa [maphavinatorno:- [protected]. At around 9pm a police raid [alcohol check ] was conducted by 2 police officials.

                  Next morning on disembarking from bus, we find our luggage baggage closed.
                  I find 2 choclate bars and 2 cashewnut packet removed from our bag.

                  Does this police checking for unauthorized goods allow this opportunity to whisk away legally carried stuff.
                  What if there was some expesive goods lost. Please check followup on this and keep us informed about your actions.

                  Regards

                        Hello sir
                        For 1st May 2018 paid 2400 rupees for Hubali to Pune. I am disappointed with your basic service to customer. We paid huge amount for travels but no washroom restroom and no drinking water for customer. Please take some immediate action on same. VRL without basic amenties.

                        Its horrible service by paying the huge money for travelling

                        Please take some action against them.
                        Hi this TR.NO: 13572362 BENGALURU PUNE journey got delayed by 2 hours my other journey TR.NO: 13546251 PUNE BENGALURU was also.delayed . Due to which we reached 1.5 hours late and i missed my interview due to this.

                        Please value the customers time .

                        Very dissapoining service from vrl . You are loosing your value as a trusted brand.

                          I was expected to board the bus at 10pm but bus arrived at 11pm. As per the mail, we were expected to reach destination by 6am but we reached at 10am. When we asked reason for delay to driver he told route was changed. There was no information to us regarding route change got delayed by 4 hours. I will definetly not recommend vrl travels to anyone because of its poor service. This is 2nd time i have faced same issue.

                            I booked a ticket for bangalore to gadag 10 o clock timing. But still i am here in gandhi nagar office now time is 10:25 pm. I called your manager he said bus is not clean bus cleaning is going on wait for some time. If bus is not in good condition why you people are taking booking for that bus.? This is the you people are handling? ¿? Here lot of familys waiting. Childrens are waiting... This is not good. Worst travels. We are waiting here for last 1 hour.

                            Bus number ka 25 c 7993

                              Sir this is to inform you that today on 21/04/2018 i started my journey from hyderabad city at 7:30 pm. Without any intake. Around 12 in the midnight i requested your driver for dinner halt he straight away refused me saying that this bus doesn't have any halt till its destination kolhapur. It is surprising how come vrl people don't allow people to go even for necessary requirements like refreshing, eating drinking water, tea etc. Without break will break relationship with customers. Netter you understand human beings necessary requirements.
                              Hello sir
                              For 1st May 2018 paid 2400 rupees for Hubali to Pune. I am disappointed with your basic service to customer. We paid huge amount for travels but no washroom restroom and no drinking water for customer. Please take some immediate action on same. VRL without basic amenties.

                                The scheduled time of departure from katraj, pune was 11:00pm but it is 1:20 now. Still there is no sign of the bus. It is very much troublesome. I am not going to recommend it to any of my friends as thisis not the first time.

                                Please stick to the timings. If not accurate be at least somewhere near to the schedule. If the passengers are late do you wait for them?

                                  I have called vrl transport nagar dehradun over phone for sending my personal luggage..
                                  He told me to bring the packed luggage to his place that is 10 km away from my home.
                                  I have done packing and reached his place where he made me wait for one hour. After that he has told me that due to gst"i can not transport your personal luggage. He needs my personal gstn number". I have asked him if it is so why he didn't inform me earlier.. There was very cold response from the vrl representative..
                                  This behavior by vrl transport is very irresponsible and wastage of our time..
                                  Giving no response when were asking amounts to disrespectful

                                    The Driver from Pune to Aurangabad, ( Driver changed ) only was watching VIDEO FILM on his Mobile Phone throughout the journey by keeping it on dashboard while driving throughout, risking lives of all the passengers. When requested for not to watch Video while driving, abused the passengers who were all frightened, shocked and in despair facing danger.

                                    Will it really be taken up by VRL?

                                      Website: Bus Journey cancelled by company but refund is not provided automatically to bank account

                                      I was informed over telephone that the bus trip as per details given in email shown below is cancelled by vrl because of insufficient booking. i have therefore no other option to ask for full refund of ticket money along with bank charges for online payment.

                                      Please note that since the booking was confirmed by vrl, i made arrangements for various activities in bangalore based on confirmed booking. now i have been put hardship because of convenience of vrl.

                                      You are therefore requested to refund the booking amount with suitable compensation for inconvenience caused to me. keeping in mind reputation of your organisation, i hope you will do the needful.

                                      Thanks.

                                      On 24/2018, I travelled from B'lore to Bjp by bus no KA25/C6152 from Anand Rao circle. My journey was very disappointing as bus reached it's destination after almost 13 hour's and horrible interiors. What I felt was that bus was very old and become slow. On this route we get such buses only. Take care and improve service quality.Thanks.
