Dear sir,

There are already 7339 complaints submitted by different users. I don't know weather the authorities looks at the complaints or may be they ignore it. Still we believe in a positive change & justice to the common users. I always failed to book a tatkal ticket due to purposeful questions during bookings. Looking forward to positive action from a sensible person. Or else kindly shut off this service and give us another option.

Thank you

      Sir/madam,

      I just tried to book a ticket at aranyak express (Train number 12885) for date of 22nd november from santragachi (Src) to garhbeta (Gba). I completed payment. Bank sent me payment confirmation message. But irctc shows payment failure and ticket not booked. This type of problem occurred earlier also at irctc. My irctc id is susenjit1
      Kindly look into the matter.

      Thanking you.

                Repeatedly tried to book tatkal tickets (Ssm garib rath) but it kept telling that captcha is wrong even when i was typing correct captcha and eventually logged me out after few attempts of typing captcha.
                I had to log in again and again and each time i tried booing ticket same error occurred (Wrong captcha). Eventually all the seats got booked.

                These stupid irctc people just make website complicated and boast how faster they have made this stupid website. It all seems fine until it's tatkal hours. I had just booked normal ticket and everything worked fine and then i tried that tatkal booking where it wouldn't let me book.

                        I tried to book a ticket from ahmedabad to jaipur on 26-10-18 using the payment through gateway option, at that point i opted for the visa gateway powered by axis bank option, i completed the booking process using otp but after that, irctc displayed that my ticket has not been booked and the payment status for that is late confirmation received from bank.
                        Thus my humble request is to grant me a refund of the amount that is rightfully due.

                        Details of my booking are as follows:
                        Transaction id:[protected]
                        Ahmedabad jn (Adi) jaipur (Jp)
                        Transaction date: 26 oct 2018
                        Transaction amount: 1390.0
                        Payment status: late confirmation received from bank on[protected]
                        Failure reason: no response from bank

                        I have attached both the initial status just after booking and the status after 5 mins in png format below.

                              The train was 5 hrs late last date. And the food quantity served was very poor.
                              Earlier it was nice to travell on duronto. But now in all the catagories, duront is getting degraded. It was a very poor experience in travelling in such a high profile train. The passengers were frustrated and got very angry in the service. The waiter boys ask for tips at the end of every journey without providing proper service. Please look into the matter seriously.

                              12262 Howrah Duronto started on time on 22nd June 2022 but as of now at 0955 it is running 4 hours late.
                              No breakfast served till now. Quality of food served for lunch and dinner is abysmal.
                              While they classify Duronto a premium train, the service and punctuality is abysmal.
                              I dint know whether they will improve or continue like this as there seems no fear or accountability
                              Madarchod train hai or Government b aise hi hai Doronto ko hold khar ki Malgadi cross khar raha hai salee chor hai shaab ki shaab Hum log kyu chose kharte hai superfast taki time say pahuche fake government & India Railway

                                I have an account in irctc.co.in (User name is udayareddy308). Unfortunately, i forgot my password. I am trying to reset my password and your site ask the email verification password and mobile verification password. I already got the mobile verification password by an sms. But, i can't get email verification password. Please send the email verification password in to my mail ([protected]@gmail.com) urgently or suggest another way to reset my account.

                                    I was trying to book a ticket from ndls to ranchi in rajdhani express online from irctc portal. Every thing was processing well. They asked for the payment through different modes. I opted for netbanking payment through my icici bank saving account. The gateway i chose was through zaakpay bank. I kept on waiting. The amount of rs 5342.78 was deducted from my account but it did not transfer me back to tge ticket confirmatio
                                    Section. The transaction failed and amount deducted vide bil/onl/[protected]/zaak pay/ 23101_zped for rs 5342.78 amount has not been refunded yet after transaction through irctc transaction id [protected] dated 22.10.18. I thought as usual the amount will be refunded within 48 hrs as usual. But after a week also i didn't get the refund. My transaction was shown in failed transaction section of irctc with the following remark
                                    Failure reason: no response from bank
                                    Request my said amount be refunded at the earliest.

                                      Service provider is Sai Balaji. Tea is disgusting . I am feeling uneasy and vomiting type . Please see this inhuman nature of service provider. Train ashram express from Delhi to Jaipur date 26 Oct 2018. When I am complained about it no response they are providing. They providing really bad service . Instead of tea you can drink tap water.

                                        The website is not sending mobile verification code on my mobile as i have tried two times in lean hours but still no use. And, therefore I am not able to log-in into the IRCTC website.

                                        Kindly check and resolve as soon as possible, as I have to take printout of my booked tickets.
