I tried to book a tatkal ticket on Mar 23 for a travel on Mar 24.
When I was booking the ticket, the system showed an error page few times. Since, it is tatkal ticket, I rushed again and again till finally I booked a confirmed ticket.
Meanwhile, among the multiple errors that were shown, once the ticket got booked. However, I received no SMS as well.
My Transaction IDs are PNR [protected] and PNR [protected]
I wrote to IRCTC to cancel one and issue a refund because it is a system error. I know the fact that Tatkal tickets cannot be refunded. Only because it is a system error, I was asking for refund. In all of their replies, they are talking about, Tatkal refund rules or how I check mails or transaction history something like that, without looking at what happened in the system and not realizing that we do not have hours for tatkal booking.
They can easily cancel my ticket so that someone else travels. I cannot sleep in both the berths.
It seems their reply shows that they do not have service attitude, but simply say no without looking into the situation
