[Resolved]  Irctc — Tatkal Ticket Booking

Address:Ghaziabad, Uttar Pradesh

HI

I have to book a Tatkal ticket from IRCTC, As per new rules it starts after 10 Am ,
I was so ready on start line, IRCTC site opened and logged in already

And here its 10AM exact---> CLICKED TO FIND TRAIN ----> BOOOM ---> ERROR MSG POP UP "HTTP 503 Error ".

Tried again Logging , Reload, everything possible but same response HTTP 503 ERROR.

In general terms 503 error means occurs due to "overloading or services temporary unavailable due to server side" WTF

I Just screwed up what the hell man , if site was not available then where all these tatkal tickets gone for all trains.
This seems like some fraud behind the seen again for tatkal tickets.
one should look into this, I dont know whom i should complain and how much this information could be helpful.
So here i m posting for just for knowledge , No expectation for better
Was this information helpful?

New IRCTC site has been launched. I had veru worst experiennce with the new sirte and mst of the time i am getting service unavailable. looks like the server cnfiguration is very bad. I started booking the ticket when I found 196 tikcets open. I am using 512 kbps speed Airtel broadband connection. but i coulnd't book one ticket till it is closed. I have crossed 15 minutes. when i checxed it again there is no ticket open in th list. From Chennai to nagercoil. We are toally unhappy with the way Railway board is doing it. THis is unacceptable . Very bad services for indian people. I am toally disappointment. :-( . Ssrry i have to raise this concern for people benifit.

IRCTC — Booking of Tatkal Tickets

Hello,
This complaint is regarding the poor & bad service of IRCTC to it passengers. I have been trying to book my tickets from my home town in Maharashtra to Kalyan on early 8am on 27th May 2011 for Date of 29th May2011. But the Irctc site was working very slowly ans in couple of minutes i.e exactly by 08:07am the tickets were already in 'W/L' or some in 'REGRET'. I don't understand this system. Also the reservations in tatkal were shown W/L on later dates like 30th May, 31st May, which are not yet opened for booking as you have to book only 2 days earlier. I am Really frustrated with this service. None of the times i am not able to book my tickets in Tatkal Qouta. Also the Agents must not be allowed to book online. I think there is some type of cordination with ticketing agents & irctc or Railway employees so, the Online passengers are not available with Tickets in Tatkal.
Also the Call Centre what IRCTC claims to be 24X7, is not so, i tries calling on this no. in morning at same time of 08:30am was not answered for more then 30-45 mins. I Request to Seriously look into this matter and take required action. As we are not satisfied with the service even though paying extra money for this online services. Thank you.
seats are available on the screen of irctc website but book now option not shown on tatkal booking
it is not happen. earlier please resolve this problem.
During booking a Tatkal Ticket on personal computer on boradband net connectivity, It has been found that filling Captcha before going for payment, the server does not respond properly in-spite of putting correct capcha ( case sensitive). After few minutes when all tickets book on quota, I common people allowed for waiting tickets only in tatkal quota. This is happening since last month. Whereas so called tour travel insure to provide tatkal ticket on paying extra money Rs.[protected] each ticket. Please look into the issue. Please also advise me for other higher move for solving the issue.
