[Resolved]  Irctc — IRCTC Complaints - Fine amount of double the ticket was lieved for not carrying the Original ID card

Hi,
I have booked tickets for my parents from Bangalore (SBC) to Hyderabad (KCG) for journey on 1/Mar/2010 on Kacheguda Express. My dad was is the main passenger and he lost is wallet on the way to the railway station and hence he could not provide the Original copy of ID card. Though he didn't have the original copy of any id cards, he had the SBI debit card with his name on it and the TTR refused to accept that as an id proof. Now there is no way that he can get his id card right at that moment. His other id proofs are at home in Hyderabad. What can anyone do in such situations? The TTR behaved rudely and demanded Rs.1048 (double the actual ticket fare for 2), which is totally insane. I need to know if this is the correct fine amount. I need to know if this is real way to behave with my parents who are totally tried explaining him what actually happened. I read in the tickets that even if you don't carry the actual ticket itself you will be fined only Rs.50 per head

<<<
The passenger should also carry the Electronic Reservation Slip (ERS) during the train journey failing which a penalty of Rs. 50/- will be charged by the TTE/Conductor Guard.
>>>

I paid Rs.563 for booking the tickets (online) and my parents paid a fine of Rs.1048. So totally we have paid up ~Rs.1611 (which is totally insane). I NEED JUSTICE and I need to be charged only what I should be charged. Also the TTR who has pained my parents and caused mental torture to them should be punished. So I need to escalate this issue, as well as I need to get back my money if he has charged us wrongly.

Thanks,
Divya.

trainticket — fund taken without booking

Train ticket was booked ,using irctc facilitie,wher the fund was taken from my account but ticket not booked

Debit card used for booking:SBI

Amount transfered:RS:230.00
we have booked the e-ticket to travel on podhigai express. My husband is in the main passengers list. He carried his laminated driving license(ofcourse its an xerox of his original) and i carried my original passport. The checking squad was so rude, she refused to accept my original passport and fined us an amount 0f 1200(aprox) when we demand an explanation she failed to explain us and the checking happened only in our compartment. When we asked why the hell you people are doing this only in some compartments she just ignored us and left the place. We need to know

-->what basis she calculated the fine amount.
--> is the squad's duty is to check all the compartments or not ?

Of course mistake is with us too, we have to carry the original proof. For our mistake we have paid the fine amount. Who the hell will take care of the squad who failed to check all the passengers?

We have been travelling in train for so many years, we didnt face such problems the TT will usually accept anyones valid ID

RAMESH JOSHI — DUPLICATE TICKET CHARGES

My E-Mail ID is [protected]@hotmail.com.
I had booked a ticket on[protected] through inter net and had used credit card for the payment.(Amount=Rs.309.47)
On receiving credit card statement, it is found that same amount (i.e. 309.47) is also claimed on[protected].
I had never booked any ticket on[protected] which can be verified by details of "Booking History". There is no entry on[protected] in the "Booking History" hence it is a duplication of 309.47.
Please cancel the entry of[protected] and refund duplicated amount.
Thanks.
Ramesh Joshi.

IRCTC — DUPLICATE TICKET CHARGES

Sirs,
My E-Mail ID is [protected]@hotmail.com
I had booked railway ticket (on line) on[protected] and payment of Rs. 309.47 was made through credit card.
On receiving credit card statement I was shocked to note that same amount (i.e.309.47) is appearing twice, once on[protected] and
another on[protected] so I contacted credit card dept and brought this duplication to their notice. They replied that railway has
claimed these money and Railway has to rectify this mistake.
In support of my claim, I request to go through"Booking of History" which clearly shows booking only on[protected]. This is mistake,
by Railway and request you to rectify and refund Rs.309.47 at earliest.
Thanks.
Ramesh Joshi.
For AC class tickets purchased through counter also, now original ID is compulsory. I showed the duplicate copy of the ID, i.e. Colour xeroxed and laminated card. But squad people refused to accept it. Though the ID is compulsory for only one passenger, they levied fine for all the three passengers shown in the ticket. This is atrocious, inhuman and totally opposed to public interest. Even the airlines are accepting the duplicate copy of the IDs, why not railway officials. Totally unjust behaviour by a Government (Democratic or autocratic) department. Railways will doom soon.

I booked tatkal ticket for my mother and aunt (from Vizag to Secundrabad). I used my mother's bank pass books (photo copy) as ID proof while booking the ticket, but while traveling my mother carried her aadhar card as ID proof. In Secundrabad, the ticket collector asked for ID proof and my mother showed her aadhar id as proof, but the ticket collector rejected it and fined double amount.
