Hello,
While making payment for a ticket, because of poor internet connection it showed "payment pending with bank side". Again i booked the same ticket and i booked it ticket successfully. But after that, the one which is pending with the bank side is not showing up anywhere (Booked history, last transaction, or failed transaction) in the website. But money got withdrawn from bank. Now i dont even have its transaction id to lodge a complaint or to cancel it. Kindly solve this asap.

    I booked following two tickets in past week, there status was a waiting list as mentioned below. Why complete money is not refunded, i did not get the waiting cleared, why additional amount is deducted? Why should i pay the fine for booking if waiting is not cleared? Please, give me my money back. It didnt cancelled the ticket, i dont know why irctc cancelled it, though it was not cleared.

            I am a middle class person who wanted to book ticket online in irctc website. I have 5500 in my account. Ticket cost is 4400. Because of preference issue ticket was not booked but money got deducted. It is mentioned that u will receive in 7 working days. But tickets wont be available after 7 days. How can i book ticket without sufficient money in my card. This is very bad. If ticket is not booked they should give the money back immediately. Everybody wont be having lakhs in their cards. Please consider my complaint.

              Hi, i am from overseas and i had to pay to receive an otp to my mobile so that i can activate the irctc account. I needed this account to book train tickects. I paid once and several weeks later, as i did not get any positive response, i had to open another account with another phone number. I paid again. Now that my indian trip is also over and i never got the otp, i want my money back. Both of them. My user ids are kayals3 and ksingaranathan.

                  Dear sir/madam
                  I am unable to login every time i try to do so i have a message from microsoft edge saying that your server says i am a mapps/client. Sometimes it just does not recognise me and says wrong details

                  . My system on my pc is windows 10.
                  I have been given an otp no
                  Also i have been given a mobile verification code code
                  As yet i have not been able to use these numbers as i cannot login

                  Have tried using the care lines and they are either busy or the ring tone starts and then the line goes dead

                  Is there a number that i could ring on this problem as without it i cannot use irctc to travel on a rail tour next year for 6 weeks which i wanted to do with my wife

                  Please can you help in this matter or must i use an agency like cleartrip which has a conventional airline style booking system which seems more user friendly.

                  Thanking you

                        I have booked a ticket for konark express on 1st oct through upi and the money got deducted from my account but its showing as pending from bank. It's two days but no response received from irctc. This is really bad and becoming problematic as the tickets are getting filled. I am going alone and can't afford to travel when ticket confirmation is uncertain. If such a problem persists train journeys will become obsolete. Kindly look into this and resolve the issue as soon as possible.

                                  In chenagalpet railway station food is been served more than MRP. Seller removed the MRP from the food pack and sold more than that. Attached the image of food pack where the mrp is removed . Quality of food is very poor which can be seen in attached image . Please investigate on cell kitchen contractor chengalpet owned by p.k. Shefi. Not sure how many customers they have cheated till date.

When asked they are saying normal water is 15rs which is not in stock thats y selling cold water for 20rs. Not sure how rail neer cost more than mrp only reason because its cold. If this is the case from how many customers they have sold the water and what are they doing with this extra money. Please investigate

                                      Hi team,

                                      My train 12623 got cancelled on 21st august 2018 due to bad climatic conditions in kerala. But i haven't received my refund till today (03rd october 2018). Checked with customer care, after someday tdr has been filed automatically for the cancelled train. Could see tdr status still as "cr registered". But not sure why tdr has been filed for the cancelled train, also taking much long time to refund the cash for the cancelled train.

                                      Please take necessary actions for this. Also passengers are not getting notified when the trains are getting cancelled. That day my ticket was in waiting list queue, after chart preparation it got confimed and got message for ticket confirmation details. But i didnt get any messages or news for train cancellation, came to know after reaching railway station. This is not at all acceptable. Would like to escalate this issue. My day ruined because of this.

                                        I had booked train sleeper ticket from kannur to bangalore central on 27/08/2018. We received the message from railway station as train is cancelled.
                                        Ticket amount not yet credited back to my account. If train is cancelled then not required to file tdr.
                                        Here attaching the ticket and information from railaway station.

                                        Please do the needful to credit my amount back to my account.
