    It is a great disappointment to see that red bus giving such bad services.They are concerned only about the ads and money they earned from their sites.They do not check the vendors background before registering them on their websites. As a result we(the customers) suffer though we pay extra for comfort services and our holidays are ruined.Please bring this site down as soon as possible so that it can be replaced with a better site who are more concerned with their customer's welfare rather than money and check the background of the vendors they register on their sites.REDBUS should own RESPONSIBILITY for all services(Or WARRANTY) they provide and should see the customers are provided proper refund if not satisfied with the services and file FORMAL COMPLAINT against such Vendors. My ticket Number is TH2F79245623 and TH2F[protected]S L H Tours And Travels)and this is what I faced on my journey from Bangalore to Goa and back: 1. When we reached the stop, it was said that our AC bus was replaced by Non AC. 2. The staffs were rude and asked us to not board as they knew we did not have other choice but to go with them. 3. The layout of the bus shown in red bus was not correct and though we paid extra for front semisleeper seats in Redbus we were given rear seats with no pushback, forget about semi sleeper. 4. The bus provided was a run down and pathetic bus with NO Suspension (though we booked a multi axle one) 5. When returning also we had the same bus and they did bother to change/rectify their bus, though they had 3 days to do so. 6. Most of the passengers including us were not given the refund promised as the staff members were not present at the scene of crime and REDBUS does not do online refunds.

              The complaint is yesterday by 6 pm i was on the process of booking a ticket for V Maheswari to an up and down trip from Chennai to sattur in Yogan travels and SRM travels respectively. after selecting the two way bus the payment was made through debit card. both trip costed 1499 rupees. i had submitted. but from the message from the bank to the cell no. i come to know only 799 rupees as been debited from the account. Which is the cost of the onward journey to sattur in Yogan travel on 23rd Jan 2015. but have not received the ticket in any form. The cell number registered for booking is [protected].and after two hours of calling to rebus i got through and spoke to Ms. Saranya, who explained that there was some problem so the booking could not be done. the money would go back to the account in 7 working days. The she expressed that the problem is rectified and i can do the booking now. so i did the booking again and it was same case of yesterday that got repeated, with no booking and money debit for only on journey. i called up rebbus again they have asked me to call after twenty minutes. It is stressfull!!! I am eagerly waiting ...

                  Hi, I have booked the from Bangalore to Erode on January 02nd, 2015. By the time of booking the ticket in Angel travels the Departure time was 11.15PM on your website. After booking I have received the mail saying Departure time is 9.00Pm which is not possible to me to reach the bus. I didn't check the mail guess it will be ok and I have reached the Travel office by 11.00PM, Really it was bad experience which I never expect from RedBus Expecting you to Refund the money for this Issue shortly, before I am taking this issue to next level. Please find attached the Screenshot Image for your reference. My Name : Sarputheen Mobile no : [protected] email id : [protected]@gmail.com

                  I have used a couple of brands in saffron.I bought this saffron from Lulu Mall, Kochi for my personal use and found it to be the cheapest saffron available.It claims that its from Kashmir in the website but not mentioned the same on the product which itself sounds awful.I have used Tajmahal from spain which is better than them.Kashmir saffron is known as the costly among saffron.Mia saffron is priced @ MRP Rs.370 in Lulu and 320 for 1gm in their website which tells that they are supplying cheap saffron from Iran.Real Kashmir saffron costs much more.They have just mentioned as Mia Saffron.This itself tells the story.I am a victim of this fake product.Kindly check whether it is mentioned as pure Kashmir saffron which is hard to find among the saffron brands.Make sure that you get the real Kashmir saffron.No matter you buy it from a big mall or small shop, always make sure to get real Kashmir saffron.I am waiting for better saffron brands from Kashmir.Say no to Mia saffron mail id : [protected]@miasaffron.com . Be alert of this fake saffron

                  my payment is already done but ticket is not booked..

                  I have pay ed 850/- by payu on which there is 100/- off. my payment is done but ticket is not confirmed yet

Morning 2 am one of them called and told me that "bus is not in condition we have arranged a traveller for you". I told them I can't travel in traveller, they told that other wise they will refund the amount ( I should tell the WTF ), but unfortunately I can't accept that because I need to reach there at 7am. They arranged traveller I travelled in that traveler. After reaching trivandrum I cancelled all my plans and just slept in hotel because I was feeling very tired. What you can do for this one? And the second one. My journey was in a1 travels. at 10pm with my wife. I reached my boarding point at correct time and bus came.

                          I have booked a ticket on http://www.redbus.in from Goa to Pune with Paulo travels. This bus ticket website have not mentioned any where that "Partial cancellation is not allowed." I got this mentioned only in ticket emailed to me after booking ticket. I have booked ticket for 5 person in a single ticket. Now I need to cancel it for just one person, but company does not allow partial cancellation, it means I need to cancel complete ticket...

                          I booked a ticket via red bus on Friday morning i.e. on 14.11.2014 XXXX Ticket No.: TGCA39545652/PNR No.: 22675994, but somehow my plans gets cancelled on the same day of travel, I tried to cancel my ticket by calling them on their customer care no. # 39412345 by 3:00 PM its self but I’m not able to connect with them as there is some problem in the line so after wasting my 30/35 mins, I put a mail to red bus to cancelled the ticket on same day i.e. Friday 14.11.2014, 3:43 pm, so as per policy I’m supposed to get a refund amount of 25% of booking amount. I wrote 10/12 mails to customer care about the same, but they always telling the mail was send after 3:45 PM, so they can’t refund as per policy, however when I send a copy of my send mail which is reflecting clearly the send mail time is 3:43 PM. So as per Redbus policy I’m supposed get the refund amount, but they are not responding to my mails anymore. I already send 3 reminded mails for this, but still they are not responding. However it not fault if there customer care no. are not working, if it was in working status then I should had done my cancellation by 3 PM only. However it’s by mentioned by redbus that due to some technical reason some time no. don’t work. So why a customer need to suffer about it. Request to please suggest me how to take this further.

                              My Brother booked a ticket from Pune to Ahmedabad in Eagle travels through Redbus.in. The date is 23rd Dec 2014. The ticket is confirmed and amount was deducted by Redbus. When boarding, Eagle travels denied that ticket is booked and hence was not confirmed. On what basis Redbus.in book and confirm ticket with Travel agents? On what basis they debit the money of customer ? Why they deny the refund of customer?

                                    I booked 2 bus tickets from Red Bus on 7 dec, 2014 from Lucknow to Delhi.The bus broke down on Kanpur Jhansi highway at 12.30 am.The bus owner didn't respond and the driver ran away from the spot leaving the bus and passenger stranded.There was no help of any kind.neither any alternative bus was made available.I tried calling red bus call center and they didn't respond.The Conductor refused to refund my money Rs 1698. Strict action should taken against red bus.they charge exorbitant pries and don't take any responsibility.They are fraud.Im calling them since 7 dec, 2014 for refund but they are not replyingThe bus was by R.S YADAV travels. and departed from lucknow's piccadily hotel at 8.40 Pm.

It showed discounted amount on payment page but debited full amount and are not responding to emails or calls. Even after multiple fails and follow ups, I h. Not received any response from the team The company might have earned huge out of such fraud from lot of customers. Now they have come up with new scheme, i request all to beware and choose other options which are genuine. AVOID REDBUS.IN, ITS FAKE
