    I am not able to login to my irctc account as its demanding email verification via otp. Even after numerous attempts otp is not been received on email. I have to cancel one of my tickets urgently and book another one. I donot think the site is sending any otp to email. Also why of a sudden have they trying to verify the details. I am ussing this irctc id for a long time. Never faced such a problem. Kindly look into thematter. Its very urgent for me as lot of money is on stake.

    I have booked tatkal ticket with my name but due to technical error, it's booked for two times with same name. Please provide my half amount.There should be rule for this problem. Now a days irctc site became too bad its not showing proper status. You should do something for your customers.Train is on 20th October 2018., please make it asap.
    I booked ticket with IRCTC on 12/10/2018, ticket not received and deduct money from bank a/c. Ichecked my bank account for refund so far it's not done payment. I am herewith attaching the screen shots of the failed transaction and ticket refund history. in view of this pl refund my amount as earliest. I already waited 12 days.

      I traveled to hosapete on 13th oct, 2018. My dissatisfaction is about continuous smell emanating from train's toilet. This may be an e-toilet. I noticed there was not enough water.

      We had to bear this bad smell 14 hrs.
      Apart from this train reached destination 3 hrs late

              Dear sir,
              While booking a tatkal ticket on 11 oct 2018 from ssm to hwh transaction was successful but booking failed twice and hence booking not done but money deducted from my account. Waited in the hope that it will be credited reversed automatically but not yet done.

              I travelled in 12220 from Hyderabad to Mumbai on 12th with one no: [protected] in 3rd ac. Cleanliness is horrible. Rude staff. Very reluctant to speak and solve the problem. Never expected this type of hospitality especially in this train. This is second time for me . Once when I travelled from banglore to Secunderabad by Rajadhani Express.

                I booked ticket through irctc-mobile app, pnr:[protected],
                Was trying to cancel this ticket, 24hrs prior to start of journey, i was not able to perform cancellation, hence the time lapsed, finally irctc i was able to cancel ticket through by sending email.
                But as a result, i got very less refund.
                This is very unfair that mobile app was misguiding me through a wrong message.
                Please refer to screenshot, the message i was getting.
                I want my money back.

                  It's highly disappointing that even while traveling in shatabdi (Luxurious train), passengers are facing issues regarding basic moral behavior and ethics by irctc appointed workmen. Shatabdi includes a facility of carrying its passengers conveniently through out their journey but there is no harmony and positive attitude of helping passengers in workmen.
                  Its a request to concerned officers to have a check on appointed workmen about their dealings with passengers, especially of train no. - 12014.
                  Thanks

                    Pnr [protected], booked on 30-sep for 1-oct from haridwar to jaipur in tatkal 3ac. There were 3 tickets, out of which 1 got confirmed and rest 2 were under waiting. As per rule, online waiting list passengers are not allowed to travel so they didn't travel. I have asked tt about the refund of money, he told just to file tdr. He didn't say anything about certificate and given any certificate.

                    I have filed tdr (Reference number - [protected]) on 1st oct evening only and got confirmation mail on 2oct 12:54am. On 19th oct, i have received mail stating that it is repudiated.

                    One side you say that waiting list online ticket is not valid to travel and another side money is also not refund. Irctc can't loot money like this from common man. This is not fair at all.

                    I want my money back.

                      Yesterday i was doing tatkal ticket booking from dli to aje. I tried several times to get the ticket. Everytime the transaction failing at the time of payment. After trying 6-7 times,. Finally i was able to get the ticket but when i checked my bank statement, i found that 2 different amounts we're deducted. One was for the ticket and another was for paytmirctccatering. I don't know how this happened. I didn't clicked anywhere else.

                          Hi irctc team

                          Here i would like to bring to your kind notice that i, rc chopra, am a frequent traveler and passenger of amritsar shatabadi.

                          I’m putting forth this complaint for the second time in 20 days gap regarding the absence of red/green sign on the packaging of the food items served (Sandwiches and patties for eg) in the train no. 12013, amritsar shatabadi express.

                          Being a pure vegetarian, i face a lot of problems when it’s about consuming food items or not as there’s absence of red/green symbols on the food items containing egg products. There’s no surity of the food products being eggless or not. Any accidental consumption of egg products will break my religious ethics and this is a serious matter of concern for me.

                          I would like to put forth a request to have an enquiry on the food products that are served in the train if they contain egg or not. Also, there must be complete disclosure of the items if they contain egg by simply having red/ green dot symbols.

                                        I travelled on 15 oct 2018 by train 17213 from secunderabad to aurangabad by 2 ac coach and i tell you it was veru sad and disappointing to find bed bugs in blanket and disturbed my sleep whole night and that too in 2 ac coach... Really disappointing. Also ac was not cooling properly inspite of informing ac attendant no action taken.
