Address: Gurudwara Rakab Ganj Road, Delhi

I booked four (4) tickets in the name of MR.SHRAWAN RAIKWAR and three others on 18 February, 2020 of AIR INDIA for the stations from Nanded( NDC ) to Delhi( DEL ) vide Booking reference number ( PNR ) – HPVKT (AI), which was to be travelled on 7 May, 2020 through flight number – AI 456
However, flight had been cancelled due to lockdown and we have been provided with the credit shell instead of full amount of refund. Due to some unavoidable reasons, we are unable to travel in the aforesaid period of credit shell.
So, we request you to kindly refund the full amount of payment for the abovementioned cancelled flight.
Thanking you in anticipation.

Dear Mr Ganapathy,

Greetings from ecommerce!

Kindly note we have added the ticket numbers -[protected]/25 in our escalated list.
It will take 20-25 days to get the amount credited in pax account.
AirIndia respects the SENIOR CITIZENS but the delay was due to massive back log of refunds
due to COVID-19.

Warm regards

    Dear Sir/ Madam,

    I cancelled my two Air India tickets having no's 098 [protected]/95 from Sydney to New Delhi due to my father suddenly passing away.
    The refund of two tickets was initiated by Air India on 09 November 20.
    It is nearly one month since the refund has been initiated but I have not received the refund in my cardholders credit card account.

    I would like this matter to be investigated on the urgent basis so that I am able to receive the refund as soon as possible.

            I had booked my tickets in Air India via travel agent and still not received the refund even after 7 months of my ticket cancellation. The flight was cancelled due to due to Covid lockdown and have been running behind the travel agent and Air india with no success.
            Air India asks us to go to travel agent and when I go to travel agent they mention that Air India is not releasing the money.

            Its been more than 7 months that i have been running behind and at the end relying on you to help me on this.

                  I booked air india international flight from Paris to Delhi for travel in July 2020. After multiple failed transactions I was issued a ticket but money was deducted each time. Money was refunded for some of the transactions but I came to know later that two tickets were issued on my name for the same flight on the same day!! So i contacted air india and requested them to refund one of the tickets but refund has not been processed till now. E-commerce section does not respond to phone calls (I called them at least 500 times) following which I emailed them multiple times only to get replies stating refund will be processed but has not happened till now. I contacted air india complaint/feedback department and they registered a complaint with a reference number (WB-IPAR[protected] but no redressal until now. I have also contacted the vigilance department of air india regarding corruption by cheating the customer off of money by selling ticket twice on the online platform for the same flight and the vigilance officer emailed back asking the e-commerce section to provide refund but this has not been done even after intervention from vigilance team.
                  I do not have any other avenues to resolve this matter so I am registering my grievance here.

                          Booked ticket on 9th January 2020, for AI flight departure on 25th May but flight was cancelled by Air India due to COVID19 and it has been 6 months the airline hasn't provided a refund.I did followup emails with Indian Eagle since they booked the flight. It’s been long time and we keep paying credit card interest for this amount and in financial crisis. It would be appreciated if Air India Refund money.
                          Refund Amount - $3910.00

                              Due to Air India's mistake, I was off loaded. I'm a foreigner and stranded in India. Air India ruined my only chance to go back to my country during this pandemic time.

                              And yet, they have not refund me for over a month.

                              Please help me to get my money back.

                                Dear Sir / Madam,

                                I am writing to you to raise an issue about: Flights

                                The issue that I have experienced was: about the event of denied boarding.
                                As you can see in the documents attached, Air India eTicket, Indigo return ticket and Covid negative Test report ICMR approved, as required for the travel. I was supposed to fly from Hyderabad to Dubai, but denied boarding, on reaching out Air India staff for a word they simply denied saying these are the rules, how can this be a rule if so should have been stated on every online portal for ticketing booking. These rules, if made, have to be advertised in newspaper or electronic media that cannot be implemented overnight and stop us from travelling. The behaviour of the Air India staff at the ground was bad and cannot be acceptable and above all they are accepting bribes and allowing passengers who paid some amount and they let go with the same ticket, I was shocked and when I asked the staff he called guards and took me out of the ground. How can this be allowed on ground ? I need compensation of Rs. 20, 000 which I planned and paid for the travelling.
                                Above all I asked Air india staff that I will get return ticket and allow me 10 mins time so that my agent book Air India return ticket but he allowed me 5 mins, even before I get the return ticket from my agent, the air india staff employee left the counter without allowing me to board.
                                I want to ask if I am travelling for 88 days to Dubai and I don't find the Air India schedule for returning then how should I book the ticket ? Also to let you know that there is no schedule as per my travel plan therefore passengers will definitely have to see other alternatives and book Indigo return tickets.

                                It occurred on: 11/11/2020

                                I hereby write to you in order to claim for compensation of Rs. 20000/- which was all lost due to Air India staff denying board though I have all the required documents for travelling.

                                I look forward to your prompt response on this matter. I would like to keep a complete record of my case, so please reply back via this email account.

                                Yours faithfully,

                                        Address: India

                                        I did a booking on Air India on 1st Sept with Air Ticket ref as below.

                                        E-Tickets[protected],[protected]

                                        Got the refund after 2 Month with transaction details as 0989R00082LVI.
                                        - 0989R00082LVD

                                        As per discussion and ticket summary cancellation charges were 6000 per ticket which was 12000, but the refund amount I received is 34000 less than booking amount as they charge extra 22000 and not giving any details.

                                        This is money fraud on charging customer any amount other than mention on booking summary.

                                        On Calling customer care they ask to drop a mail but its since 2 weeks and 4 mails they didnt respond to any of them.

                                        P.S. they didnt respond to any of the mails i send before to confirm on refund transactions for over 2 Months.

                                        Thank you
