Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir/madam,
This compliant is with reference to one of the rules that is being followed in irctc for the waiting list category of e-tickets.

My pnr was [protected] for 3 passengers, i got one confirmed seat and 2 waitlised after chart preparation. Since the person could not travel alone, i had filed tdr for the confirmed ticket. However i didnt get the refund for the waitlisted ticket, i have not filed tdr for waitlisted ticket thinking that irctc automatically refund the amount of waitlisted tickets after deducting the clerical charges.
Please let me know the refund status

I am used to book my train tickets thro"irctc web site for many years. If i want to cancel my e-ticket there was no problem previously. But since two days i have not able to find booked ticket history to cancel my e-ticket throught irctc website. Irctc web site doesn"t show the my transactions or booked ticked history. Kindly resolve my problem of cancelling of the e-ticket immediately.

Rollout of new irctc ticket booking site is pathetic tried booking in tatkal quota for 3 times every time money got deducted but ticket was not booked, 13000 is deducted from the bank but ticket was not booked, i know it will be reverted back to the account but there is highly inconvenience caused due to this. The errors on the site are absurd like captcha code is not correct for every time i am entering the valid and correct captcha code, selecting the train and click on book notification shows site is down / unreachable, session getting timed out, page getting expired a lot of bugs in the site and very pathetic experience.

Railways is calling this as nget "next generation ticketing system" but literally it is third class experience and the older site was very good and efficient system...

Railways is just sucking the passengers...

After logged in, i checked the preferred bank details then after i logged out but the 'preferred bank details' stills remains on the page. Please see the attached image.

Another incident, while booking tatkal ticket, it was showing that 50 is available then after booking i get 'waiting list 12' after that when i check the availability status the app displays '20' still available. If 20 available after booking the ticket then how come i get waiting list?? Serious flaw with the booking system.

Another incident, while booking the transaction failed because "booking not allowed" error, money deducted by my account is 3063 while refunded amount is 3000. Why i pay service charge in case of failed transaction

Hi sir/madam,

I beg to say that my ticket was from bmki to anvt on 16/06/2018 in train no. 12557, saptkranti express and pnr is [protected], transaction id is [protected]. Ticket fair was 1290 and after cancellation refund amount has shown 1225 and deduction was of rs 65. But i got very less amount. Please check this on urgent basis.

Thanks and regards
Puja

I have booked online ticket with pnr no.[protected] with transacation id: [protected] covering six ac 2 tier in train 22416 ap exp. From agc to vskp and the cost of ticket is rs. 11970/- whereas similar ticket with pnr no.[protected] with transaction id.[protected] covering six ac 2 tier
In similar train 22415 ap exp from vskp to agc for which charged rs.12645/-
The discrepancy in between the above two tickets may be examined and do the justice so as to facilitate the customer loose the extra amount paid as both the journies and trains are one and the same.

I have booked 2 tickets yesterday and today one onward and one return. But i am not able to take print outs of them as the sms message of ticket booking may disappear within 3 months. After booking the ticket on pressing 'print ticket (English) it didn't work. Earlier i used to get booked ticket history from your site and get tickets printed. Now i am not finding "booked ticket history" anywhere in your site. Please advise.

My family booked ticket from njp to sealdah vide pnr no.-[protected] by padatik exp on 12.06.2018 which was confirmed by irctc with pnr no.- [protected] in darjeeling mail. But we didn't get any information regarding change of train no and because of that my family could not able to catch the train as its departure time was earlier (8pm) than padatik express (9pm). After several request to everybody station manager understood the actual problem and assured to manage one berth in padatik express prior discussion with concern tte at njp. However, after train departure tte asked for extra charges of rs. 2500.00 without receipt for travelling in ac3 with general ticket (As per their advice). My family was agreed to pay the same but requested to give a receipt. But ultimately, nothing happened as she was alone with my child and had to pay rs. 1500.00 without any receipt. I want to know that what was our fault and why we will be the sufferer by travelling without proper ticket & pay extra if we booked the ticket. It is the fault of railways as they didn't inform us the actual status of confirmed ticket as they have our contact no. How can i know my train no is changed. If that is their fault, they should arrange proper reservation for passenger as we are paying for that. I need proper investigation of this case and penalty for that and that tte should punish also for his behavior.

I try to book the railway ticket through irctc and payment made through vim app the amount rs 520.00 deducted from my bank as requexted by razorpay bank vide id no[protected] but irctc failed to book ticket showing the reason payment failed rejected by bank on 10.06.18

We, dr. G. Pratap kumar and dr. A. Rudra nagendra rao travelled on 10th june, 2018 from chennai to vijayawada in howrah mail (Train no.12840) with pnr no:[protected] in i a (First a/c).

We were allotted upper berths whichs are dirty. The sides of the berths were not serviced since so many days.

The compartment is having half ia and half iia (First a/c and 2nd a/c berths) and the compartment is very old.

The pillow covers are also dirty and when we asked the attendant changed.

We had a bad experience during this travel having paid for i a/c.

I had booked a ticket through my irctc account from kanpur to delhi from shram shakti train no. 12451, on 4.6.2018 vide pnr no. [protected], d. O. J. 05.06.2018. I was alloted a-1, berth 8, in iiac. However i notice that the charges for ticket rs. 2015/- have been wrongly debited twice from my account. I have been patiently waiting since then for credit of wrongful deduction for rs. 2015/- by irctc, in my pnb a/c.

Kindly look into the matter urgently and credit rs. 2015/- [two thousand fifteen only] wrongly deducted, into my account without further delay.

Thanking you in anticipation of your prompt action in this regard.

I dr. Priyanka raj travelled in train number 12192 shridham express on 9th june from jbp to nzm with pnr no. [protected] with my daughter. The couch attendent of my bogie before shri. Sashi dayal was very rude in behavior and misbehaved with me on asking to be polite he threatened of dire consequences and said make my complaint where ever you want i don't care. Is there any system in the railway to train such kind of people that how to behave with passengers or usually these people misbehaves travelling single female passengers or without male partners. My this experience is very sad and tarnishes the image of indian railway in my mind. I hope some kind of action will be taken against him and the applicant will be informed.

I was trying to book a retiring room in chennai. Even though the check-in and check out date was given as 15/6 2018 to 16/6/2018, below in the selection list the dates are showing as 7/7/2018 to 8/7/2018.

To understand this tried calling in toll free. Even after waiting for a long time, when the staff answered the call, they just disconnected before hearing my request completely.

Today i was trying to book a tatkal ticket, but my session got log out even though my session was in use and it was not login more than 2 mins. It was not idle. As per irctc, if session is idle for 3 or more mins, then session expires.. Why is this happening. Is it that someone is hacking the irctc account and disconnect the active user sessions? Can you please check the security of the irctc. I can't even book the ticket and nowadays its difficult to book the tatkal ticket due to server busy. I don't understand how the agents are able to book the confirmed tatkal tickets.
