DEAF EARS OF SERVICE PORTALS
There is mushroom growth of agents under tourism industry, who provide you air tickets, rail tickets and bus tickets. Besides that hotel accommodation is also arranged by them. All the portals have different types of terms and conditions as well cancellational policy and before clicking one has to be very alert and attentive to ensure that there are no hidden or fine prints, which have escaped attention of the customer.
The other area where most of these type service providers are defaulted is refund of cancelled tickets / bookings. The magnanimity of this deficiency in customer service can be made from complaint portals. I, too, have a pending claim against GOIBIBO, which is now two years old. I have exhausted myself with all the efforts without getting a single response from their side. I am now contemplating to move through Consumer court.
Let us pool our issues against these service providers and move the court after giving them one chance to resolve the issues or face the music. more

Reply to Shri Vinod Malhotra: We should actually importune the Ministry for tourism to set up an Ombudsman like the Banking and Insurance Ombudsman to attend and redress consumer complaints speedily. Incidentally, I think you have used the word "magnanimity" instead of "magnitude". Could be due to automatic spelling correction by computer. L.Kalavathi Retd.
