With a humble beginning in Bangalore to becoming the first choice cab-hailing service in India — giving the likes of global giants Uber a run for their money in the subcontinent — Ola has come a long way. Although, if you’ve decided to jump the ship and get rid of your Ola account, let me break it to you that it isn’t going to be an easy task.
While creating an Ola account only takes a few minutes, the company doesn’t let users delete their account. That’s right! You can’t delete or deactivate your Ola account. The Ola Cabs app for Android or iOS has no option to delete your Ola account. And this might not even come as a shock to many as several companies like Oyo, MakeMyTrip, and PhonePe, to name a few, are employing the same practices.
However, there is a workaround to this as you can still block your Ola account. Once your Ola account is blocked, no one will be able to use the same phone number and email address to use Ola again, even you. So, you’re deleting your Ola account entirely with no scope of getting back on until you get a new phone number and probably a new email address too.
