    Dear
    Sir,
    I'm rajasekhar,
    Irctc user id: seerapusek
    Reg. Mob. : [protected]
    Reg. Email: [protected]@gmail.com

    I book tickets without autofill or any other methods. I book tickets with the correct procedure in most cases with irctc rail connect app. But i don't know the reason it is showing "booking is not allowed as your account is suspended".
    I called irctc customer care and they are very rude, telling me to create new account with other number and email, i don't have other numbers or emails to make new account.
    I have a recorded conversation with customer care representative for proving their rudeness towards customers.
    I need a proper reason behind my account suspend.
    Please do the needful.

        I booked a tatkal tickets and i made a mistake o name and age so at that moment i cancelled the ticket but no refund is provided because of there worst policy of not providing the refund on tatkal cancelation. What is this worst policy? I cancelled the ticket at that moment and made new tatkal reservation. I want my refund i do not believe this worst policy or provide me details what a person can do if person had input wrong name because there was no option for editing the ticket and no refund. I made cancelation because i thaught that ticket will get wasted or will be used by a needy person. But you do not take care of your customer's interest.

        I know no action will be taken against my complaint because irctc do not take care of their customer's interest their ego of monopoly over railways is so much that they never reply to there customers

            I tried booking a tatkal ticket on 14/12/2018 and the amount got debited from my bank account but the ticket did not get booked. The message showed: pending from bank end.

            I contacted the bank and they told me that transaction from their side has been successful and they have communicated from the bank. They provided me bank transaction id as well.

When tge dinner was served one of the passenger insisted for welcome drink then welcome drink aquaaries ( frooti type)was provided at about 9 pm which was to be provided at 6 pm when tge train left jaipur. Please look into it as this must be a routine phenomenon where they are not providing to passengers on many occasions and causing loss to them as they have paid for it but not getting from the catering satff.

                            1] my irctc trans no.[protected] of 12-12-18. Rs.13825.00 was deducted from my bank account, but the irctc portal displays "pending from bank end".
                            2] my irctc trans no.[protected] of 12-12-18 rs.13825.00 was deducted, i opted for 3 lower & 3 upper births, but was allotted all upper births.
                            3] my irctc trans no.[protected] of 12-12-18 rs.5010.98 was deducted, i opted for two lower births, the irctc portal displays "two lower births not available.
                            My grievance is when irctc is unable to deliver the opted births why they are collecting the money, and refunding after deducting gst/service charge/etc after few days.

                                      I use to travel in shatabdi express from howrah to bhubaneswar and i am also traveling today (11 december 2018, c10 15). Schedule departure is at 14:25 pm. The irctc catering services use to provide the food. Today i have got 1 litre water bottle after departure of the train. Then around 15:30, i have got one small samosa, one bundi laddo (That also small), one small pack of salty ground nuts, and tea. Now at 7 pm, i was hungry and getting stomach pain for that. They will not serve any soup. Since the train is shatabdi, i did not have option to buy and take food. I requested to provide any food to get relief from hungry and it's pain, they simply denied.
                                      There is chance to get easy digestive food that i think horrible to mostly old people and them who use to take digestive and healthy food. The current menu is not hygienic.
                                      In the dinner, we will have only paneer or chicken with rice/roti.
                                      1. Irctc has reduced the items that results insufficient food in snacks and lunch/dinner.
                                      2.in these kind of trains like shatabdi and rajdhani, passengers are forced to travel with hungry.
                                      3. Irctc should facilitate to buy food so that passengers can travel with sufficient food.
                                      4. Based upon the record, irctc should change the service provider.
                                      5. If irctc will not able to feed the passengers in shatabdi and rajdhani, they should inform the same so that passengers can board with food.

                                      Thanks.
