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

I tried to book a online ticket from irctc but the ticket could not be booked but they debited the money. That money is still not refunded in my account after 7 days. Without booking ticket how they can keep money more then 7 days. They can debit the money from our account without even booking ticket and while refunding they need more then 7 days. It is ridiculous. There mistake and we have to pay. How much money they are keeping like this and taking interest on it from all over india!!!

I have been using irctc rail connect on my phone for 1 year. However recently when i try to use it amessage appears "unable to validate data please try later" since i have tried every hour of the day but it shows same message! I need your help to sort it urgently as i can not do any bookings.
I am registered on your irctc web for 5 years however it does not allow me to log in. Every time capcha is wrong or something.
Can you also sort it for me so that i can get on to book my journey.

Too much fraud by government organization

I have cancelled two tickets on march 22, 2018 against pnr no. [protected] (Txn id [protected]) and no. [protected] (Txn id [protected]) respectively.

On march 26, 2018 i have checked refund history and it shows "refunded", with refund id [protected] (Rs. 855/-) & [protected] (Rs. 825/-).

But, it actually not credited my bank account till 2000 hrs of march 27, 2018.

Please look into the matter immediately and resolve the issue ensuring amount may be credited to my account.

Today i am traveling with my family from hyd to Delhi by Telangana express in B-4 seat no 13&14. I booked my meal (non-veg --egg). Vender charging from me (and everybody who ever booked meal) Rs-110/for non-veg(egg). And Rs-100/- for veg. Whereas as per IRCTC veg & non-veg rates are Rs 50/-& Rs 55/- . I called manager of M/s. Ambuj Hotels and Real Estate Pvt LTD the Licensee and ask rates, he told 50&55( veg& non-veg). He told that vender is wrong, after that both were justified that we are giving more quantity.but is was not like that, only one sabji was extra, that I don't ask from vender . Finally manager told me that you give Rs55/- only.manager name is Golu Singh & vender name is Rahul. if possible I will post their I card photos.its not fair, they are cheeting to us, our Rail minister & also our Prime Minister too.

I have also oped for the vikalp option, after seeing lots of tatkal waiting on that train.

Yesterday evening i was attempting to book a ticket from chennai to kumbakonam. The ticket was not generated. I know i can book 6 tickets per month. This time it is the 7th ticket. So i need to provide aadhar verification.
I did the aadhar verification earlier few weeks back and i got the following result
Your aadhaar xxxx-xxxx-3822 has been verified successfully

So now i entered my aadhar number in the ticket and clicked makepayment
Now i am supposed enter the payment details like credit card number etc. The payment screen was not shown. Instead an error message saying the atleast one passenger should have verified aadhar. I am one of the passenger and my aadhar has been verified already as i said earlier in this post. Since i am denied the ability book a ticket inspite of the fact that i have entered my aadhar and registered also. I keep getting the "re verify" in the master list page again and again no matter how many times i deleted and re entered my correct aadhar number and gave sufficient time in days for the system to update the status as "verified" the system has refused to generate the ticket. If this is an issue from your side please address it as soon as possible since the same issue might be faced by more and more genuine users like me. Best regards, madhavan

We tried to book tatkal railway tickets in www.irctc.co.in. there were seats available but after every payment, the transaction failed but the money was debited.
This is so ridiculous. I don't understand what is wrong with the ticket booking system.
It was so annoying that it says "transaction dropped. No seats available" and the money is debited.
Please escalate and build a proper system for the users.

Dear sir,

Dear concerned,

Am travelling on train no: 12311 hwr-kalka mail. Trip started on 22nd eve.
Mid of my destination we found 2 big rats on our a1 compartment
1st of all there was no attendant in a1 coach for long time. Then some how we manage to speak with tt but there we didn't receive any response till 1 hr.
After frequent visit near pantry and when we said to give concern email or number for drafting complain they just visit and said what should we do if there is rat.
We put out all the luggages and swiped our coach by own. Even there was no toilet papers.
Kindly look on the service qualities and do the needfull.
It's not expected to be happen in a1 coach.

Sir the pantry workers and non lisenced vendors start selling tea/coffee as early as by 3am. This is creating nuisance and serious disturbance to passengers who are sound asleep. The yelling of chai-chai should be put to an end and at a fixed timing the vendors must start their activities probably after 6.30am till 20pm.. On at least two occasions i had requested the vendor to abstain from yelling, but each time he comes back with a louder yell. This issue needs to be addressed in all the indian railways irctc network for action that gives passengers a noise free sleep.
