Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Evaluating 199 reviews, most reviewers were let down by their experience overall. Many people were dissatisfied with the service, citing issues with drivers requesting additional payments beyond the quoted fare, often for tolls or other charges, and exhibiting rude or unprofessional behavior. Customers also found the pricing to be a significant concern, with fares frequently increasing unexpectedly or concerns about final fare amounts. The staff and booking process also contributed to negative experiences, as many encountered unhelpful customer service when trying to resolve payment disputes or report driver misconduct. Some people also felt that the company's payment system, particularly the postpaid option, led to unexpected penalties and confusion.

OLA SCAm

OLA : Biggest Scam!!! No option to change destination (26 kms). Trip was charged fully 281/- when I had taken the ride for a shorter distance (10 kms).

Ola drivers always end up in charging…

Ola drivers always end up in charging more what was actually shown on the app.
They fool passengers by adding a fake amount.
I booked an ola cab. The fare decided was at 400.
I got off the ride midway to my final destination(Almost 20 minutes distance is yet to be covered)
Still he charged 400 and when I denied to pay the full amount, he started arguing.
Please uninstall ola app and never use their services

I have took ola auto (auto CRN 9452520162) from air port Chennai to my designation, the fare shown is RS 306.
While dropping auto driver threatened me to pay Rs 400, I asked the justification he is lying that he is messaged me about the amount.
I didn't received such message from
him. I try to complaint to ola, the ola link saying that you report to nearest police station.
My question is what about responsibility of ola on customer safety

Unprofessional, rude drivers, charging extremely high unnecessarily.

Ola is charging customers like anything, taking triple times charges during the day time, taking money unnecessary just for a 5 min distance to go to next layout they ask charges close to Rs.100 upon this they want us to donate Rs.1extra, on top of these they block drivers from accepting rides and ask us to choose the extra tips to get the fastest ride like Rs.10,20,30,40,50. So where is this ola going and for what purpose they are taking soo much of money for the ride when the metre itself will not cross even the minimum charge of Rs.30? Who gave them the rights to charge soo much, Upon all these unprofessional, rude, using abusive language drivers. Ola is ignoring all the customers reviews but some day all these reviews will be counted and hope they will give atleast a basic services to the customers. It's high time for ola team to look into all these issues and sort it out.

"Absolutely appalling experience with…

"Absolutely appalling experience with Ola driver Murali Mohan S. His behavior was completely unprofessional and unacceptable. He used abusive language and even resorted to rude gestures. The lack of respect and courtesy was staggering. I'd give him zero stars if possible, but unfortunately, the option isn't available. Even one star feels like too much for the kind of service I received. Avoid this driver at all costs. He also asked for extra money .Ola, take note! This driver is a liability to your brand and reflects poorly on your service. He should be removed from your fleet immediately to ensure passengers' safety and dignity. Unacceptable behavior like this has no place in any reputable transportation service."

The driver was excessively unprofessional and rude. He tried taking a different route inspite of the police warning him not to and fought with me when I protested and requested that he takes the map route. He crashed into a car from the right side in his frenzy of going fast. He showed me a false image of trip fare showing 304 when clearly my ride was 234 rupees. When I challenged, the same he started arguing in my workplace. This is highly unsafe and irresponsible as OLA has no safety features. I hope OLA either acknowledges their mistakes and brings reforms or it SHUTS DOWN FOR GOOD before killing it's passengers and saving their drivers

Ola app is in a class by itself…

Ola app is in a class by itself regarding how opaque it is. Totally evasive and dodgy. Furthermore no phone numbers. No email id to raise complaints. Perhaps they're aware how shoddy their app is,how economical it is, with details. It's surviving only because it's an oligopoly.
The union consumer affairs minister is quite right when he terms ‘advance tipping’, introduced by ride hailing apps such as Uber, Ola and Rapido, an unfair trade practice.

In a post on X last week Pralhad Joshi wrote, “Forcing or nudging users to pay a tip in advance for faster service is unethical and exploitative," adding, “Tip is given as a token of appreciation, not as a matter of right, after the service."
Ola was mailed this just now and their response is
This e-mail is not monitored..or.. the implications being we may choose to ignore whatever you are writing about.
Pathetic beyond words.

OLA CABS ……. NEVER AGAIN

Do humanity a favour and never take OLA CABS.Opt for other ride sharing services as OLA is just plain useless in selecting safe drivers as we requested a ride from Rajivgandhi international airport to home.
Our driver was very rude and would not turn AC on a hot summer day and demanded extra money.The drive was erratic and rash and we had to abandon the trip into 2 mins of the ride and requested to return back to the pickup spot only to survive and stay alive.

People…….. just stay away from OLA as neither them nor the drivers who drive for OLA have any concern for passengers.

We have always opted UBER and will remain loyal to them
