BUS TICKETS

sgsdvs* is only a bus ticket agent. It does not operate bus services of its own. In order to provide a comprehensive choice of bus operators, departure times and prices to customers, it has tied up with many bus operators and service providers.

sgsdvs’s advice to customers is to choose bus operators they are aware of and whose service they are comfortable with.

sgsdvs’s responsibilities include:

Issuing a valid ticket (a ticket that will be accepted by the bus operator) for its’ network of bus operators.

Providing refund and support in the event of cancellation.

Providing customer support and information in case of any delays / inconvenience.

The baggage of the customer getting lost / stolen / damaged.

The bus operator changing a customer’s seat at the last minute to accommodate a lady / child.

The customer waiting at the wrong boarding point (please call the bus operator to find out the exact boarding point if you are not a regular traveler on that particular bus).

The bus operator changing the boarding point and/or using a pick-up vehicle at the boarding point to take customers to the bus departure point

The arrival and departure times mentioned on the ticket are only tentative timings. However the bus will not leave the source before the time that is mentioned on the ticket.

Passengers are required to furnish the following at the time of boarding the bus:

Cancellation charges are calculated on the actual fare of the ticket. If any discount coupons are used while purchasing the ticket, the discounted value would be used to calculate the refund amount when a ticket is cancelled.

In case a booking confirmation e-mail and sms gets delayed or fails because of technical reasons or as a result of incorrect e-mail ID / phone number provided by the user etc, a ticket will be considered ‘booked’ as long as the ticket shows up on the confirmation page of www.sgsdvs.com.
