I have used their service for about 2 months now regularly. In bangalore the drivers seem ok. Atleast around where I live(sarjapur road). I have heard of some rude drivers closer to the city though. These guys are simple and polite. The ride is usually cheap in not so crowded roads and might only cost you the same as an auto on meter with the mini option. This is the case as they have high waiting charges even though the per km rate is lower.
The sedan WILL COST you higher though. The rate equal to auto meter is just a marketing gimmick. Still they have a couple of things in their favor. One is that ola money makes for a cashless ride which is nice.
Second is mostly based on where I live. If I need to get home from office( about 4km), auto in this area are total rascals and start at around 200 giving you a number of stupid reasons. Whereas ola guys are ready to pick-up from office and drop me home without complaining about the short distance. One guy even said its good for him. Currently they are being overbooked and need to book like a tatkal ticket during 4-7 which is their peak time.
That is an issue. The idea is to only use them in non emergency cases.
