The deadline for ticket cancellation depends on the time that the bus departs from its first location in the route and does not depend on the time that passengers get on the bus. For example: If the bus starts to depart at 7:00 and the time that a passenger gets on the bus is 12:00, cancellation deadline is taken from 7:00, not 12:00.
Cancellation fees for tickets booked through VeXeRe:
Cancellation fees vary, depending on the bus companies. You can view “Cancellation Policy” while choosing the bus company on VeXeRe.com. If you made payment for your booking, cancellation policy will be sent in the email confirmation. For enquiry on the cancellation policy, please contact our Customer Service via email or phone.
Cancellation fees do not include the payment expense. Total refund = total original payment – cancellation fee – payment expense (if any).
Cancellation fees apply on the original ticket price, not the ticket price after discounts. Ticket cancellation charges shall be deducted from the total fare paid, and the remaining amount will be refunded. For example: If the original fare is VND200,000, the fare after discounts is VND150,000, the cancellation charges are calculated based on the original ticket price, in this case VND200,000. So, if the cancellation fee is 10%, your refund will be 150.000 - 20.000 = VND130,000.
