Buses not stopping on toilets for women on long journeys

Address:Dharwad, Karnataka, 580021

VRL bus on a trip from hubbali to Mumbai didn't stop at any toilet despite the female passengers making multiple requests on a 10 hour long drive. The bus stopped twice in the middle of the highway for male passengers to attend natures call. Lack of toilets was cited as the excuse for not stopping anywhere. I'd be surprised if none of the dozen petrol pumps on the way didn't have a toilet. Whose responsibility is it to ensure the drivers...

Unethical behavior of the agency hosting VRL travels

Address:Mumbai City, Maharashtra

The vinayak travels that host your vrl travel buses in andheri east are probably the worst at providing customer service.

The staff there is way too rude and claims that " we are not here to serve the customers' yes this is the exact line which i got to hear from the person there at the travel office when asked for a seat as i was waiting for my bus to arrive since 2 hours.

Overall they have no basic decency...

Unresponsive driver

Address:Dharwad, Karnataka, 580029
Website:Vrl travels.com

Usually VRL travels doesn't stop at any local road side tea shops. But this is 2nd time bus is being stopped road side for tea where their are no toilets and above all it ll be 2am to 3am. At this time alone ladies and old people getting out of bus is risky. If asked driver that why vrl is stopping at these places, driver says what then where to stop, we need tea so stopped here.

Cancellation of ticket

Address:560038
Website:Vrl travels

I have travelled from bengaluru to visakapatam tr no i s 8555720 on 13 october after two hours of journey the bus got damaged .the main reason for the damage was the bus was not tested before the start of journey.
I am thinking that vrl travels was playing with people risk.
And the bus reached the destination late by 5 hours so that I lost my interview.
Again I booked a ticket on vrl travels. From visakapatam to bangalore...
