      Sir i had booked a ticket pnr no [protected] for me and my family from amritsar to new delhi but due to some reason i had changed the train and again booked [protected] for some of the same passengers from amritsar to delhi. Same time i tried to cancel the tickets of earlier pnr [protected] but was unsuccessful due to some app or backed issues as an last option i mailed same to [protected]@irctc.co.in but not getting any relevant answer.
      Also [protected] train also got route diverted due to which we had lots of inconvenience. But i have got the mail through irctc that [protected] pnr has been accepted for tdr but not pnr no [protected].

      It was an software or an technical issue, request you to kindly check with your backend team and help me in getting my hard earned money back

        Respected sir,

        As i arun kumar singh filed tdr dated: 01.01.2019 for archana express (Refund status attached).

        my tdr got repudiated and reason was given that passanger travelled at that pnr.

        I would like to intimate you that i not travelled at that pnr, because it was more than 3 hrs late (Approx 7 hrs late) and i did reservation on same day with gangasaluj express (E ticket attached).

        You can check in your record that i travelled in ganga satluj express on 01.01.2019.

        I can also prove that i reached to ambala cant at 02.01.2019 in morning and then i reached to chandigarh by bus and attended my seminar at nitttr chandigarh at 10 am on 02.02.2019.

        Now i also want to know how tte verified my presense in previous train (Archana express) for which tdr filed.

          Hello team,

          I had booked a ticket for 2 adult through irctc (Online) on14th august and the time which was shown for departure was 13:00 at noon and we reached at 12:50 but the train had already left at 12:45pm. We had emergency but due to wrong time shown we faced loss morally & financially. We both have confirmed seats.

          Then i have submitted complaint at chandigarh station. Kindly find the attachments as well. I am not asking you about my refund 660inr.. I am not happy with your services. I have called so many time to irctc customer care but did't get any resolution. Irctc customer care is very poor and pathetic customer care service in a world. I demand for the claim + 660inr/-+ multiple (*) 10 extra approx 6600 to 10k. Anyways loss what we face that will be still more then what we have claimed. It's totally harassment for us to face such situation.

          I have already checked tdr rules with chandigarh station superintendent. There is no any tdr reason according to my case. Kindly go through in this case and then reply or call me. I am not happy with this and i will take strict action against you and your services. I am not asking you about my 660rs. Refund. I demand for the claim 10, 000.

          I need proper resolution. Kindly go through in this case and revert me back.

            Hi i booked 4 tickets for journey date feb 28, 10:30 am on east coast express from secunderabad jn to nidadavolu jn yesterday and cancelled it today but i was charged ₹480 as cancellation fee for the total of ₹1100 which is more than 40% of ticket charges.

                    It is very surprising and shocking to me that i had cancelled my tqwl tickets online at 10:18am on 08feb.2019 (Train no. 15002, pnr no. [protected]) but you are saying that this ticket was confirmed but this is not true (Please see the attached screen shot of cancelled ticket which was in waiting).

                    My ticket was booked in tatkal quota as tqwland there was already more than wl16 waiting list in general quota in ac2nd in train no. 15002 then how my ticket tqwl could be confirmed?

                    I am dead sure that during cancellation of ticket it was showing waiting ticket then how can you say that it was confirmed? Please get validated your computer program, it must have an error.

                    The train no. 15002 runs with heavy rush from ddn to muzaffarpur so, there is no change of ticket confirmation in ac2nd class in tatkal quota even when already have more than 16wl in general quota in ac2nd class.

                    I have contacted irctc care many times but all times they are saying that your ticket was confirmed (Showing in their system). But till time, i have checked in my irctc login page that ticket is showing in wl list in my cancellation/booking history.
                    I ask to them (Irctc) that please share me pnr no. Of that ticket against which cancellation my tqwl tickets had got confirmed then they are unable to give any such evidence.
                    I also asked them if my ticket was got confirmed then why during cancellation of my ticket it was showing as waiting tickets?

                    Sir, i am sure that you will do depth analysis by cross-checking the asked cancellation of other persons confirmed ticket then you can find root cause of the error in their system.
                    And i also asking that if my cancelled ticket was showing as wl status during cancellation then why i have to pay money (It is his website error).

                    Kindly help me to avoid this financial loss to me.

                      Hi IRCTC,

                      I have booked the ticket with reservation ID : [protected].
                      Money has been deducted from my account, however ticket is not booked.

                      Please refund the amount, and suggest should I book the ticket again ?
                      I dont want a situation, where I book new ticket and later on you will also book ticket against this txn, which is on hold.

                        Respected authority,

                        Today on 8/02/2018 my mother and her sister were travelling to raigarh from surat in porbandar exp. (12905). At around 1041 hours i had placed an order for food from irctc e-catering android app. (Details are submitted) and delivery was expected at raj nandgaon from vendor named "hotel shri kanwar palace" but we did not get our parcel delivered. My mother is cardiac patient and she has to follow dietary regime strictly. Now who is responsible for this careless behaviour?. One side we are promoting e governance and digitalisation and another side blunders like this are still persisting. I as a citizen am confused that should i go with this application base services or not. Please take an action as appropriate. Thanking you.

                          I am waited almost more than a hour to book the tickets in tatkal but whenever it goes to payment page it returns back it did happened more than 2 times and available tickets in tatkal went to waiting list category this happened just after the tatkal category opened within 2 to 3 mins of time.

                          We would like to request irctc what would be the best possible option to book tatkal tickets as the opened tickets of 200 goes off in just minutes.

                            I can't get the otp from my phone number that already submitted, and i already make payment for registration fee. My credit card aready issued the registration fee. But because i don't get otp, i can't use the account. This is terrible.

                            So, i want to change the phone number to be verified. Please help me to fix it, cause i need to buy train tickets as soon as possible. Thank you.

                                I have booked tickets for my parents from dehri on sone to delhi dated 03.02.2019. The schedule arrival of train was 04:30 in the morning on 04.02.2019. On same day they have a evening 6:30 flight from delhi to bangalore, bust because of delay of more then 12 hours they missed their flight. Now we have to book new ticket at much higher price. This incurred us a double loss now i want complete refund of my flight ticket.
                                Very pathetic service of indian railways.
