We endeavor to make every ride you book through our app ‘Locome’ goes without issue or any hassle but we also consider that sometimes uninvited things happen.
If the ride you booked with us, does not meet your expectations, we offer to share your feedback by rating your driver after the completion of the ride; and if you believe there was an error with the pricing or any other issue occurred while you were having a ride, you can report the same at our support handle. Considering which we may even give you upto 100% refund.
We desire to give a brief through examples to help you in expecting what can happen when you report an issue with us as to when a rider may be eligible to receive a full or partial refund of the price it paid. We strictly restrict the time limit to raise an issue on ride to 07 days. We also keep it to our sole discretion the criteria to evaluate the complaint/ issue raised on case to case basis.
At Locome, we share the tentative price for a ride as per the entries made by you before booking a ride after which we connect you to our independent driver partners sharing your location and necessary details about the ride you have offered to take. Hence, we work as a market place to connect you with the drivers. Once the driver accepts your offer to ride, we share necessary information regarding the driver and the vehicle at the app.
As a rider, it’s your responsibility to check the information provided is accurate and meets your expectations of quality. If you decide to take a trip, you are accepting the terms of service and are taking responsibility for the successful payment of that trip.
