        This better be the last time I am facing this inconvenience.

        My username and email ID is below.

        Out of this two failed transactions, one debited a sum of 331 Rs from my card even though the transaction failed and it is still not refunded.

        In the past couple of months, I have continuously met with several such failed transactions while booking in UZHAVAN EXPRESS which is between MS to KMU, back and forth.

        I have got several failed transactions out of which, three transactions debited an amount of 'RS 331' from my card. Every part of the transaction went smoothly but finally the transaction turned out to be FAILED. BUT THE AMOUNT GOT DEBITED. The problem definitely didnt arise from my card, I used several different cards from several different banks.

        I got back 331 Rs for first transaction within some acceptable no of days. As any Indian would do, I forgave them.

        But the second time while booking the same thing happened. Every part of the transaction went smoothly but finally the transaction turned out to be FAILED. BUT THE AMOUNT GOT DEBITED. The refund got so delayed that I sent a email to Irctc customer care email id, requesting them to address it. But I didn't get any proper help.
        After one and half months, I got back 331 Rs.

        Again on 25 April 2018, While booking through the same train, the same thing happened.
        An amount of 331 was debited during the transaction but the transaction got failed.
        After waiting for nearly 10 days, I report this to you.

        I have to inform to you that I am a very experienced user in online transactions. Hence the problem is not from my side. I have booked several tickets through IRCTC before, I was always satisfied with it. All this started only in the last couple of months.
        These problems are turning out to be frustrating and problematic.

        IRCTC should sort these issues out immediately.

                The train named LLT Faizabad Express train number being 22103 was scheduled to arrive at bhusawal station at 8.30 pm which was late n was rescheduled to arrive at 21.50 n the same was displayed on platform no.6 and in no time the train came on platform no.4 around 11.15 without the announcement being made. The epic moment is still the train details are displayed on platform no.6. N the announcement was being done for the advertising agencies these tours those products 🙄😐😓 its very disappointing n the sound was also too low to be audible.
                It's a request to all those who travel to n from to bhusawal to be aware n hv a seat between the platform 4 n 6.

                            Sir,
                            I have booked a window ticket [pnr no.[protected]] from ahmedabad to nagpur for date 7/5/18 [train no. 12833]which was a waiting ticket. This train runs at 00.15 a. M. And chart was prepared at 8.00 p. M. After seeing that ticket has not being confirmed we didnt board the train as ticket was waiting.
                            On next morning when i went for cancellation and refund the counter person refused to cancel.

                            Reservation counter closes at 8.00 p. M. And so it was possible to cancel the ticket next morniing only.

                                        I was travelling by gitanjali exp. (12860) from howrah to tatanagar. Coach no. S6. Seat no.4. Pnr no.: [protected]. The date of journey was 6/5/18. It was written irctc. J k ghosh on the red t-shirt of the vendors
                                        All the above items are found selling by irctc vendor higher than the printed mrp price. When i asked the reason and opted to buy it as per printed mrp rate, they refused to sell it to me. This is unethical. On one side railway irctc administration is propagating to get cooperation from passengers to end the corruption and on the other side, this type o[censored]nethical corrupted business by irctc vendor is openly evident. The system is there but complaint book is missing. The common passenger is scared to lodge a complaint because he may not want to be individually identified and be the victim of harassment by the group for the long journey. The passengers have no other alternative but to buy those items at a higher price because no other food was available and they have to travel a long journey with those vendor persons. The group was adamant and desperate. Seems they are empowered by a strong leadership of muscle power. This may please be stopped. There should be a system of surprise checking by the railway authority.
                                        Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
