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. I was not prompted about cancellation charges so that i could have reconsidered my decision but i got message of charges only after it was cancelled. Refund me the correct amount or i will be writing this to railway minister, indian government.

        I missed train just now as no one opened door of b1, b2, b3 compartments. The train is delayed by more than 6 hrs and after long waiting it was missed as no one opened door and no one exists to open door, no one on the platform to help.

        Could you do the justice and take necessary action on neglect of their duties whoever concerned to.

          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.

                    Irctc website problem. There is some probability of bug in need help/ disha. Each time a close this dialog box and proceed for booking. The web page get hanged with please wait status. It has happened multiple time. Some thing is wrong with payment process also since their are several process. But problem experienced each time is that page get expired right after entry of card detail. Please look into this issue so that we can book ticket safely and fast.

                            I am currently travelling in 22656 from delhi to trivandrum as on 2 feb 2019. First of all for a train with more than 2 days of travel time, what's so issue and irritation for a heavy profit monopoly like irctc not to provide a pantry car. Do you expect fellow indians to die of hunger as there is no proper food facility on few stations too, on which this train stops. Secondly the cleanliness is at it's worst, i guess railway has completely...

                              I cannot print or cancel ticket via booked ticket history for past few days. After login, the page shows the tickets in the background, but the "please wait" message does not disappear. I have tried multiple times in a day but the website is broken. I am not trying to book a new ticket bur print existing ticket, but the website is broken.
                              Even page refresh logs me out, so i can't even do simple refresh without getting logged out.

                              Steps to reproduce:
                              Irctc website login my account my transactions booked ticket history

                              Tried latest chrome, firefox. Broken in both.

                                We have ordered three plate vegetarian food. It was stated that each plate will be served with four chapati, rice, dal and vegetable of paneer mixed peas. After getting three plates of food, we paid rs.360. It was surprising that only two chapaties were served instead of four, besides, some rice, one piece of paneer without peas also served. Quality of food was not good. On being asked repeatedly, no complaint book was provided.

                                    I am very regular user of irctc app. I have booked tatkal tickets huge number of times without any issue. But from recently, while booking the tatkal ticket, the money is deducted from the bank (I received message from bank) and after that it shows "bank rejected the payment and try another option". I have tried 2 times today and both the times i got the same problem.

                                    2 times money is deducted and the ticket is not booked.. This is the second time i am facing the issue in last one month.

                                    I request the authorities to kindly look into it as this is causing a huge inconvenience, in both losing the money and ticket not booked causing our plans shattered.

                                    Request for action into it.

                                      Irctc is cheating customer by the taking out payment from customer and not booking ticket as we loose both service charge multiple times and also we don't get ticket booked. This is happening multiple times. Even after bank payment is processed and transfered to irctc they dont confirm the ticket.

                                      If it is a one scenario that would been agreed as due technical traffic, but it happens also with high speed internet usage. They just fool common people.
