Goof-ups of online Cab aggregators such as Uber and Ola see the light once in a while. Here is a recent incident which not only shocked the Passenger but also the Cab Driver himself.
Rathish Sekhar, a private consultant, booked an Ola Cab from Jubilee Hills to Nizamabad and return journey after a 2-hour hault. The company App showed the estimated value of the trip covering 450 km to be Rs 5,000.
By the end of the trip, Rathish Sekhar received a bill amounting to Rs 9.15 lakh. Even the Cab Driver couldn't believe what he saw and commented he could buy two such cars with that bill amount. The distance covered was shown as 85,427 km instead of 450 km and Rs 9,15,887 instead of Rs 5,000.
Soon, Rathish Sekhar contacted Ola support to bring to their notice about the goof-up. The representatives of the company apologized for the error and corrected it with immediate affect.
