My tickets got cancelled as they were in waiting list at the time journey. Hence refund of my money ₹18, 000 was initiated on[protected]. But, i did not receive any amount in my bank account until now.
I talked to the customer care executives. They told me to raise a ticket by mailing this issue to ([protected]@irctc.co.in)
I did the same & i did not get any response.
I called them again & then i got a reply to that mail saying that my case is being forwarded to concerned department.
This happened on[protected].
Today is[protected] & i did not receive any response from their side.
This is how our government is. Shame on it truly!
Irctc resolved only 2% of the complaints until now..
I can imagine how they are bloodsucking all the refund amount & putting in their pockets.

      My pnr number is [protected] and the train has cancelled so refund the whole amount in my sourcing bank account as soon as it can. Dont keep it in PAYTMAG for weeks. Transfer the refund amount within a week from the cancellation date. Transaction date is 19th Jan 2018 and My amount has still not transferred to my sourcing SBI bank account. Transfer it immediately as per rule its 6 days from the transaction date. Its the 2nd time I am complaining against this in discipline behavior of irctc. Don't make me take more actions against this.

                This is with reference to cancellation of train.
                I was not inform about the cancellation and also i booked tickets till the boarding station.
                I would like to lodge a complaint of the same, for the cancellation of train without notice as i have to bear all the cancellation charges i made to get to that train.

                No calls or e-mail were sent about the cancellation of train.
                Is this the way, irctc tourism treats the passengers??

                  Dear sir/madam,

                  I had booked a ticket with indian railway on 1st jan 2018 from ndls (New delhi) to cnb (Kanpur central). I had filed a tdr on the same day as the train got late by more than 3 hours. I recently looked at the status of my tdr and it shows cr repudiate (Which means refund denied) and the reason they listed is invalid time stamp:delay.

                  As per the rule the total amount should be refunded if the train gets late by more than 3 hours.

                            Hello

                            my PNR # [protected], I booked 2AC for two adults and an infant, I was travelling from Jabalpur to Secundrabad, on 27th December 2017. during the journey I kept my luggage under the seat and in the night but when i opened my nag in the morning I found that the bag was ripped off and the food was eaten by rats inside the train. This was shocking for me as at least 2AC is more secured than the general dabba.

                            I complained this to the TC on duty his name was "CTI NGP NR SK Singh" and instead of registering my complaint he advised me to not to keep the luggage under the seat, this was pathetic and unprofessional and unacceptable behaviour from a public servant. He was advising me to not to keep the luggage down and where am I suppose to keep ? on his head.

                            I want serious action to be taken against this and the TC on duty.

                            Thank you.

                              I had made a booking for 3 travellers on 25 november 2017. I requested a partial refund due to a change in personal circumstances and the message received is that the refund was credited to PAYTMAG but I have used netbanking to proceed with the transaction.
                              I have already emailed [protected]@irctc as well as tweeted the same to Indian railways but got no response. Moreover the credit is still not in my account.
                              Posting screenshot of the message. I want to know what is this paytmag and does it mean it gets credited to the registered mobile number as paytm wallet balance? Where can I trace.

                                        Recently 4 tickets have been cancelled from my account on IRCTC website.
                                        Out of which all have the refund status stated as REFUNDED. But seen in my bank account only 2 tickets out of 4 are refunded with amount credited back to my bank account.

                                        other 2 tickets noticed the amount is not credited yet to my bank account.
                                        This is the issue. Cancellation has been done about 10 days back so far and amount not received.

                                        Also noticed is that the payment gateway displayed for both of these 2 tickets is PAYTMAG.

                                        Not sure if this the problem with the gateway but doesnt make any sense as the IRCTC has used it and the customer is not the worrier of this gateway issues. IRCTC has to look into this and settle the amount whatever.
                                        Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
