1/5DO NOT BOOK WITH BOOKAWAY
I have taken many sleeper buses these last years, and in Vietnam, we booked with BOOKAWAY. But the bus that picked us up was a different bus than the one we had booked. The bus was over an hour late, it was overbooked so people were sleeping on the floor, no toilet break, bus smelled awful… and then arrived 3 hours too late, on a different destination at about 30km from the described destination, which made us miss our appointment for the Halong Bay cruise that day. Customer service just offered us 10% discount on our next trip… what a joke 😂 Horrible experience.

1/5Pretty Bad
Bugs. Incorrect addresses. Incompetent and horribly slow customer service. One of my issues took over a month to resolve somehow. I was blamed for an incorrect pick up address in the system which was clearly a bug. Instead of simply offering to refund me (after purchasing multiple tickets, some redundant), they tried to blame the carrier and get them to pay for the refund. Terrible. Obviously they wouldn’t, and so they decided to make up some convoluted story that somehow I was at fault for their bad data. I can see now from the other reviews that I’m not alone in experiencing a rather disappointing situation.

1/5Don’t Buy On The App
Just use it as a way to find services/companies and buy it directly through their official website, not on BookAWay.

1/5Horrible. Do not book!
First of all the app doesn’t even work so you can’t sign up. Then you go on their website and the chatbot can’t comprehend simple responses and once an agent responds they send a message and immediately close the chat without allowing you to respond.

1/5Sold me tickets for a route that is closed, kept me hanging then cancelled.
Booked 5 first-class Nuwara Eliya–Ella tickets because they looked sold out on the official site. After paying, their partner AKMT said that train doesn’t even run from there anymore it leaves from Ambewela, which was available on the official site the whole time at normal price. No way to cancel in-app. They sent 1 ticket of 5, promised the rest “at 11am on travel day,” never gave seat numbers, ignored every question, then cancelled the booking the night before with a child in our group. Refund email came but no money yet. Felt like a scam. Book direct on the official railway site instead!

Don't install the app and don't use BOOKAWAY services. It's a SCAM!!!!! We waited for our tickets and they have never sent them to us. And we're still looking for a reimbursement.
