Dear Sir,

I have booked a ticket from New Delhi to Hyderabad at Kachiguda station(Hyderabad) through Debit card.

SOURCE - NEW DELHI
DESTINATION - HYDERABAD
CASH DEDUCTED - 1760/-RS

CANCELLATION DETAILS :-

CANCELLATION DATE[protected]
CANCELLED AT - KACHIGUDA STATION, HYD.
CASH TO BE REFUNDED - 1570/-RS

PNR NO.[protected]

This is second time i am lodging the complaint & none of the actions have taken from your side.
There was a call from Indian railways asking about the complaint i registered, but they didn't respond me after one call.

I even got a message in mail box asking me to forward the details on [protected]@ab.com.in, but there is no such domain found on internet either.

I am writing this complaint on[protected] & I have been thrice to Kacheguda station, twice to SBI Bank & also Andhra bank to know the processing of my refund.
As per customer care, it shall take 5 to 7 working days for returning the money, but it has taken almost 5 months of now & still counting.

Kindly, refund my money as soon as possible.
I am attaching a ANDHRA BANK RECEIPT which i got at station while making the cancellation.

Yours truly,
Ali Ameer

      Hi
      I traveled in "shri shakti express - 22460", the first train till katra station, my journey was really troublesome and disappointing.
      The coaches were stinking, had garbage under the seats and the seats were also not good. The beddings were of poor quality.
      The toilets were dirty. There were cockroaches and mices which didn't allow us to sleep.

      Please take immediate action on it's improvement.

      Thanks

          I had filed a TDR on 17 MAY 2017 for PNR number [protected]. As the train departure was delayed by more than 3 hours. However, the TDR was filed for 4 passengers out of 6 passengers. We had to reach our destination early and hence we opted a bus due to this delay of departure of train.

          Passenger details who did not travel
          MEHUL MEHTA - M - 34
          HETAL MEHTA - F- 32
          DHRUVI MEHTA - F- 9
          JINAY MEHTA - M -7

          Passenger details who did travel
          HARIT MEHTA - M - 28
          SIDDHI MEHTA - F - 24

          Please note that the TDR was filed only for passengers who did not travel due to delay of more than 3 hours in departure.

          The status of the TDR was CR registered and suddenly after a month it was rejected. the reason was mentioned as passenger travelled and hence rejected. However, I have not travelled. I need to file a complain to resolve the issue, however, the TDR details or history is also now not available in my login profile.

          A screenshot of TDR filed and TDR rejection is attached as photo with this complaint
          Request you to resolve the complain at your earliest.

            I got RAC in B2 seat #39 for two people from ASANSOL till Aanant vihar in train#12249Yuva. Somehow we adjusted in night but in morning still we talked to TTE they did not addressed us. Does RAC means in the cost of two people 1seat.Even seats are available still TTE did not provided seat even they were very much rude. This is the worst experience traveling in train. In future I will never use train because I have traveled whole my journey sitting after giving money for AC tier whereas no water in coach AC not working . Kindly refund my money. Please contact me in my mail I'd [protected]@gmail.com.

But in tamilnadu, orissa west bengal the vedors charging re.7/- only on tea and coffee.

                  There was problem with internet connection when I was trying to book the tickets so when I selected SBI debit card as option and entered all the details suddenly there was message sorry try again from IRCTC page it happened twice. I never got the OTP through which I can make payment. Every time sorry again message was shown by IRCTC. I got to book ticket finally by 3 time. But the problem is that the amount got deducted 3 times what to do and I only got one ticket which I cancelled today. So is there anyway to get my money.

                            Dear sir/ madam,
                            I am an ISRO scientist.
                            I have booked return tickets between SBS-MAS.I want to advance the dates. I have no option to do so online.

                            As per instructions available at Indianrail.in I went to Shivajinagar reservation counter yesterday.
                            At counter 2 at 8AM, I showed my ticket printout and hardcopy of instructions. I was told she can address only counter tickets. I asked about the officer who can guide me. She refused to give information.
                            When I again quoted that online tickets also to be addressed at reservation counter, she asked me to cancel and rebook.

                            1) I request you to provide me the option to advance my tickets from 20th to 8th July, return ticket from 28th to 24th July
                            2) please Provide online option for advancing and postponing tickets
                            3) please address lack of information at reservation counter about advancing online tickets
                            4) please address better approach of providing information regarding queries at the counter.
                            Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                    Website: www.irctc.co.in

                                    I had filed tdr against pnr number [protected] (Train no.01322 - ten pune exp travelling from palakkad to pune), since the train got derailed on 16th may, 2017 near meenakshipuram (After crossing pollachi station). The scheduled arrival time at palakkad jn. Was 03:45 pm, but it was re-scheduled to 10:30 pm. Even after that, i had waited for the train for 4-5 hours, but the railway authorities at palakkad jn. Told that it would get delayed more, so they adviced me to file tdr, so that i would get my money refunded.

                                    I had booked my ticket through irctc website. I had filed tdr just because the train got derailed and i couldn't travel in that train since it got delayed by more than 20 hours.

                                    Railways had rejected our plea stating that ticket not surrendered upto 4 hrs. Before the scheduled departure of the train. How do you expect me to surrender the ticket upto 4 hours before the scheduled departure of the train when the train got derailed in the half way. I had sent a mail to [protected]@irctc and also to mr. Suresh prabhu, but it was in vain. No positive response from them. Its a hardearned money, i don't want to lose it. Kindly help me out in this issue.
