Hi, i have booked a shared car on go ibibo website on june 13th, 2017 to travel from new delhi to chandigarh with pnr no eqreo2a7wd, however, the booking was canceled by the driver and i wasn't able to come through it. When i contacted the official of go ibibo and asked them to initiate my refund for the booking, they said it was already initiated on the same day and i should receive it within 7 working days but still after 15 days i don't receive any refund and when i contacted them, they are asking to wait a little longer which is absolutely rubbish and frustrating. Since it's a mental harassment too, i am planning to file a legal complaint against the company if i don't receive my refund in next 2 days. My complaint number is 12154219.

Subject: hotel owner and managers duping innocent guests

Respected sir/madam,
Having suffered a harrowing and traumatic night on the streets of shirdi last night, i am forced to lodge a complaint against the erring hotel manager and owner of hotel sai sadan.
I had booked a room in hotel sai sadan on 24\07\2017 on goibibo.com. I had made the payment for the room and got a confirmation of my booking via email too.
On june 24, 2017, i reached the said hotel at 11:45pm (Due to a delay in the running time of the railway)
On reaching the hotel, the receptionist very curtly informed me that my (Pre-booked) room has been already allotted to someone else and that there are no rooms available for me. I rang up the person who had confirmed my booking and after listening to my complaint had switched off his mobile phone. To add to the misery the call centre officials of goibibo curtly told me that they were sorry for the incident and said that they would reimburse me my money and said that at the moment no rooms were available in any hotel in the vicinity. As a result, i had to roam the streets of shirdi, lose my sleep, face shameful experience with my family. This is a deliberate act of the owner and the manager of hotel sai sadan. This is an act of cheating and duping innocent hotel guests. I request you to kindly register a case of cheating against the hotel owner and hotel manager and oblige.
This will prevent other innocent guests from getting duped.
I shall be grateful to you for taking an emergent action against the erring hotel owner and manager.
Thanking you
Sincerely yours

I request you to please resolve this issue.

I have made a booking on 12th june from goibibo. I have done two transactions but first one is failed so i did another payment. But they are saying now that both transactions are successful and this is my fault that i didn't call them. I received failed transaction message so why i will call this is why i did another payment. I want my money back for that failed transaction.

I booked hotel on goibibo for mussoorie named radha residency which is clearly mentioned that it is situated at library chowk (Which is start of mall road) but when we reach there we found that we were cheated and the hotel was having other address. We called goibibo but not got any help. We requested u take strong action against them so that other families should not be cheated like this. This property is situated far from library chowk and we had paid rs.400 for pick up and drop for library chowk. We requested hotel to provide pickup /drop facility but they refuse. I talked with goibibo later and told them that now at least correct address but nothing had been done till now. My stay dates were 28/5 to 01/06

I was stranded at night because the number of the hotel provided on the app was dead, which was accepted by the hotel manager when i checked in. Location given on the app is a ditch, the exact location is on the top of the mountain. I kept calling the hotel number from 9 pm to 11 pm but no 1 answered the call. Then i called the customer service team and made me wait for 18 mins to connect to hotel. When i came into the room and thew my bag the dust below the bed came out like anything. Whole place was dirty. Curtains and bed sheets were washed in 1980. The pics shown on the app are enhanced. Blanket was smelly and the room was occupied by mosquitoes. There was no goodnight or allout provided by hotel to keep us safe.in the morning i saw the washroom and i was stunned. It was smelly, yellowish and rusty. Geyser was rusty and as usual not working. I complained about it and they kept saying we are checking this and after 2 hours they said none of the geysers are working. They arranged warm water for 1 person. There was no soap in the washroom. This was the worst experience of my life. Once i was back to delhi, i contacted customer service team about my experience. I was talking to "chetan" he said he will call me back once he is contacted the hotel. Guess what, he called me back and said you are right no 1 answers the call and ask me do i have any other number of the hotel (Seriously?). I asked him to compensate the charges as this was not acceptable. He said he can not do anything as i am complaining late. Goibibo expect me to call on roaming and make my phone bills sky high as 1 of the call made me wait for 18 mins and took 38 mins to resolve.

I had a booking in gulfair to delhi on 16june2017 at 9:45 pm from bahrain, i have done webcheck-in and reached airport at 7:45. Checkin counter staff send me to customer service as flight was overbooked and i have connected flight form delhi. I went to customer service and requsted the staff about my urgency to travel as i have to attend my own sister marriage function. Staff requested me to talk to the duty manager nawaf moh'd. When the manager came he didnt listened to my query and told me to schedule my travel next day. I requested him to atleast schedule my flight so that i can reach my destination before evening and the manager response was "we are not responsible for your fucntion and the tickets in other airlines. As this flight is overbooked you have to tavel tomorrow.". After that it went in heated discussion. He told me to collect boarding pass without issuing the ticket because i should not talk to other manager to reschedule the ticket. As a result i am going to miss my own sister marraige haldi function for which i was travelling and which was ruined by one single person and cant be fulfilled by any compensation. I talked to airport autohority but they told to check with airlines there is not consumer authority in bahrain. So i want to log a complain in indian consumer court regarding this incident when i will reach india. Please provide the contact person of gulf air whose name i can put in the complain notice.

Am a existing customer of goibibo-a senior doctor of repute practising in delhi. I had booked a hotel (Nonrefundable with full amount in advance) for my annual orthopaedic conference in indore in dec 2017, very much in advance in march and having received confirmed booking i proceeded to book my air ticket also for indore (Through goibibo - as record will show) for my travel and stay between 27th to 30th dec2017. However i was shocked to receive a call from goibibo customer care 3 days ago that goibibo is not in a position to honour my confirmed hotel booking (Id - htlasssgl4). Obviously i protested, as this would lead to complete disruption of my travel plans which i had made well in advance for peace of mind having wrongly trusted goibibo plus financial loss as i booked air tickets and registered for the conference only after my hotel booking was confirmed. But goibibo could not care less for their customer and inspite of them assuring me (Including mayank the tl who spoke to me) i have not got any call wether my booking stands or not and wether (As promised within half hour) a suitable alternate arrangement has been done by goibibo. Obviously this is totally unacceptable from a responsible organisation and if mt issue is not settles satisfactorily, i will be compelled to escalate the case both on social media and take legal recourse as this amounts to clear cut deficiency of promised services
This is crystal clear that goibibo is liable entirely for 1) mental harassment of trusting genuine customer2) financial loss due to severe disruption of well planned travel arrangements
3) deficiency of promised services 4) prolonged delay in resolving crisis created entirely by goibibo itself 4) keeping a customers money and binding him down and denying him opportunity to seek booking from elsewhere or of different hotel
As there is no satisfactory response from goibibo towards resolving this issue created entirely by goibibo - i am pointing out these facts officially which will make it quite obvious that goibibo does not have a customers best interest in mind-
1) when i made my booking from goibibo in march (17th) i wanted to book well in advance for my stay in indore in december as i had to make travel plans to attend conference accordingly
2) goibibo confirmed my hotel stay - as is clear from the voucher and the hotel stay was nonrefundable-thus depriving me of any opportunity of cancelling or modifying my booking.
This fact obviously speaks for itself that goibibo entered into a contract of service with me and took entire amount in full in advance on noncancellable and nonefundable basis and by now declaring their inability to honour the terms of contracts and not giving me a viable alternative and depriving me of any opportunity then and now to book alternative hotel, they have breached their contract
This is caused harassment, suffering and financial loss to a customer for no fault of his
3) as is evident from records and documents
A) i have also made my air bookings for indore through goibibo (After i received confirmation of hotel stay)
B) as is evident from records, i had opportunity to book alternative hotel (Hotel infinity)-which i cancelled once i received confirmation regarding my hotel
C) even now it's more than a week since i received a call from goibibo regarding not being able to honour my existing booking and assurance of quick and satisfactory alternative arrangement - but no further official intimation from goibibo inspite of escalating the case from my end.
D) my account still shows booking as confirmed
E) even now i am being denied opportunity to seek booking from other sites (Hotek infinity and sayani are available on make my trip site on those dates - but i can't book as i am left in the lurch by thus unprofessional attitude of goibibo.
This is a serious case of wrongdoing by goibibo and i am planning to escalate the matter legally as this is clear cut "deficiency of services"
.

Sir,

I am using the above mentioned credit card & never gone in default. On 25 may i have booked ticket from kathmandu to delhi dated 5th june from goibibo using my above mentioned kotak credit card. 8126 was deducted & as per the bank record merchant has claimed the money however i have not received any message, email & ticket. I have contacted goibibo for the same & got a reply that they have not received any payment from kotak bank on the contrary kotak gave me the transaction id & reference id which i have given to goibibo but goibibo refused the transaction. Reference id which was generated on 25 may 2017 was [protected] amounted 8126 later sr # 1-[protected] was generated. Last week as per the direction of kotak bank i have raised dispute form which was duly filled & sent to kotak & was received by the kotak bank. Now i got cal from goibibo & they said they have cross checked from their finance team & there is no transaction processed. No as a customer i had faced a lot of harassment & neither kotak nor goibibo is accepting but my money was used by either hence please respond me on the war footing other wise i am going to file a strong case in chandigarh consumer redressal court with mental & monetary harassment case.
Looking for a prompt reply from your end other wise please do not blame me for the consequences.

Thanks & regards,
Harmeet oberoi

I have booked train tickets which were wait listed and automatically got cancelled.
Firstly irctc deducted charges which were baseless and i have raised separate complaint with them.
But whatever irctc provided - goibibo again deducted rs. 40 and on calling customer care they are hopeless people. Firstly they disconnect your calls and afterwards nobody helps out.

When asked email for escalation, they have no details.
Don't book your tickets from goibibo. They are fraud.

I will be raising complaint everywhere and expose this to social media as well.

An amount of rs1402 has been debited from my savings account for a bsnl recharge through your payment gateway... Ibibo.
Bsnl never received the amount and do they did not recharge. Kindly credit the amount back to my savings account.
I have attached the transaction details of the debited amount.
Also have attaached the mail from bsnl that they did not receive any amount of rs1402, so they did not recharge my phone. Please credit the amount back to my savings account

On April 23, 2017 I was charged twice for same transaction. Transaction ID are as follows
1) 75105177114000712103469
2) 75105177114000712094510
And auth ID are 571092, 958065

I made the transaction through ICICI bank credit card with last 4 digits 0004.

I asked bank but as per bank the transaction was claimed by merchant so bank could not reverse it back.

Booking no: tuallff5g

I am contacting goibibbo every week to get to know my refund status of the tickets cancelled on 04th may 2014 from gulf air. So far i spoke o jagmeet, bilal, priyanka & vishwajeet, but still i am getting the same response that my request is under progress, escalated but i got refund of rs.7900 for the airticket amount i paid rs.144000.

At the time of booking, i was not told by your executive (Jay from booking dept) that the tickets booked are non-refundable, but after cancellation i was told that this ticket is non-refundable which is totally not acceptable.

I cancelled the ticket because of my mother sudden demise and not able to travel as planned.

Request to help in processing the refund at the earliest.

I had booked one sedan cab from goibibo from pune to thane mumbai for 5/6/17. I had already discussed about my luggage quantity with customer care of goibibo over phone and they assured me to carry this with there cab. At last my booking details has been changed by site and they have send Sachin Shinde driver who denied to carry my luggage and thrown all the things from carriage and went away. Now company neither make any alternative arrangements for my travel nor give my 100% booking amount to my account. I want to file a suit against these people.

Dear sir / madam,
I bought an air ticket (Del - hk - del ; srilankan airline ; date of journey 12 june - 23 june 2017) on 21st may 2017 form goibibo online. On 3rd june i got the split of my payment and i came to know that they have charged full fare for a child under 11years. I think no air line charges full fare for a child under 11. I already complaint to goibibo for this but they said that due dynamic airfare sometimes a child is charged as an adult fare. But i have never heard that in any condition a child is charged full fare. Kindly see into the matter to get half airfare for the child and do the justification for charging full fare for a child. I will be grateful to you.
