Sir, i am milan jana, purchased railway ticket through irctc in sbi debit card in pos (Paytym). Purchased ticker on 13/11/2017.. I get msg/email from bank that my account has debited money. I also check balance that money has debited from my account. But i do not get any msg /mail from irctc for any confirmation of purchased ticket. I send an mail their customer... But i do not get any proper response. They always send ticket id. I atleast send mail 10 times. But i do not get proper response. Pls help me. I confused about present status of purchased ticket through irctc. Pls help me

When i book tickets on irctc there are too many failed transactions for same ticket. Amount gets deducted and ticket only gets booked after 5 or 6 attempts.
Experienced similar experience on irctc in past too when my friend booked tickets by paytm for me he got money deducted 3 times for failed transactions, then my brother booked same tickets for me he got money deducted 3 times through sbi net banking, was successful in 4th attempt. I think irctc is deliberately doing this so they can accumulate money from people and earn interest on failed transactions or they want people to go to agents.
I have attached picture of recent failed transactions i suffered, finally have to give up booking this ticket.
I think irctc (www.irctc.co.in) should be fined with the amount of interest equivalent to the amount of interest on failed transactions they earn each day, and this matter of number of failed transactions each day on irctc should be looked into.

These are the two transactions that i havent got the refund for.

First one is from 13th october and the 2nd one is from 14th october, please check.

Thank you for using your sbi debit card 622xx0208 for a purchase worth rs1326.6 on pos 81800006 at ccamoto txn#[protected].

Please help me through this...

I booked ticket online from bct to kota on 10th nov. Date of journey is 11th dec. The ticket amount was 6490. Train name is ndls durronto. The payment was done but the error msg popped up of ticket not booked. I mailed irctc regarding this but i am only getting automated response even their phone numbers are always on busy mode. Its been 3 days and i have not heard from them neither my amount is refunded.

I am attaching the pic of payment settled and ticket not booked image.

Please help in getting the amount refunded.

Passengers are suffering because of this late... Why such a terrific delay is happening... 6 hrs delay.. It is unbearable... By this time it would have crossed Vijayawada but it s not yet reached rajahmundry.. Wht s the compensation irctc going to pay for passengers... Only thing irctc can do is raising ticket fare and providing worst service... Just come and sit with us then u can understand our trouble...

Hi all,

I was travelling from ludhiana to delhi on 8th nov, 2017 early morning. I have reserved my seat in sleeper class train
Seat number:cnf/s5/7
Train no/name : 14012 / hsx dli exp
Transactionid: [protected]
Pnr : [protected]

My boarding time was around 3am, 8th of nov.

The mentioned compartment was s5 which was not attached with the train due to which i had to travelled in general compartment where the seats are wooden benches. This made my entire journey pathetic. Though the train was late but this absence of compartment made my journey really painful.

I humbly request you to please refund my booking amount as this time it was not worth travelling in this train.

We are travelling from shridham to bhopal at 5/11/2017. We have asked the ticket generator to give us the ticket of janshatabdi he gave us that ticket and said the reservation will be done inside the train by tc. But when we are travelling in the train the tc charges the fine for that train and doesn't gave the reserved ticket for some charge. I want to complain that why ticket counter person gives us the ticket for janshatbdi if it is fully reserved and reservation can not done inside it. The fine receipt no is d414369. My name is leelakishan gupta and contact no.. Is [protected]
