If you cancel within 5 minutes: You will not be charged a cancellation fee.
If you cancel after 5 minutes: The cancellation fee for a cancelled trip will automatically be
charged to your next trip.
Before you cancel a trip, you will receive a notification to ensure that you are aware of the fee
that will be added to your next trip.
After completing your next trip, the total fare that you will pay will include the fare as well as
the previous trip’s cancellation fee.
If you have cancelled multiple trips consecutively, the cancellation fees for the multiple trips
will accumulate as arrears and prevent any more requests from going through. In such cases, you’re
expected to clear the arrears using an alternative payment method, such as a credit, debit card,
etc. Once the payments in arrears have been cleared, you will be able to request an AmbiPalm as
usual.
Cancellation Fees:
BLS: ₹50
OTHERS: ₹50
ALS: ₹80
If you feel that a cancellation fee has been unfairly charged, please use the in-app Help feature
(from the menu located on the top left corner of the AmbiPalm app) to bring the particular trip to
our attention.
You may be charged a cancellation fee if you cancel a trip after you're matched with a driver. These
fees pay driver-partners for the time and effort they spend getting to your location.
Drivers are also able to cancel a ride request if they've waited a certain amount of time at the
pickup location. You may be charged a cancellation fee, in this case, to reimburse your driver for
their time.
