Hi
I also have the same problem, am trying to book tatkal tickets from my personal irctc id, but error is coming which says "you are permitted only 2 transactions between 8 am to 10 am per ip address".

You are permitted:
1) only 2 tickets between 08:00 hrs to 10:00 hrs per user id.
2) only 2 tatkal tickets between 10:00 hrs to 12:00 hrs per ip address.
3) only 2 tickets between 10:00 hrs to 12:00 hrs per user id.

I have not booked single ticket between 8 to 10 even within this week.
Irctc user id - ajrajak86

Looking for a solution.

    Dear IRCTC,

    For the past 5 days I am trying to book tatkal ticket online and I am
    getting the same error "This site is currently unreachable. Please try
    after some time", even though I sharply login into the site at 11:00.

    On first day I thought it might be some server issue which your
    technical team will resolve in an hour or so (being crucial issue). But
    for the continuous 5 days I am getting the same error.

    I did my research about the same on Internet and found many articles
    saying "Fraud of IRCTC", "Bribe IRCTC Officers making way for Agents,
    who were not much into business because of lite version, using which a
    bonafide consumer was able to book their urgent tickets" etc etc.

    I demand a clear JUSTIFICATION on this issue. WHAT IS THE CAUSE OF THIS
    ISSUE AND WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED ?

    WHO ALL ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS?

    AND WHY I SHOULD NOT FILE A PROBE AGAINST IT?

    Thanks

          I, Keerthana B, had booked two tatkal tickets from CSTM to LPI from IRCTC mobile app via KVB debit card. The amount worth Rs.1020.70/- was debited with the reference no.[protected]. The particulars given in the passbook says POS/E-POS/[protected]/IRCTC/DELHI. A pop up notification came up on the mobile that the payment was rejected and thus, the ticket was not booked. I had to make a repayment with the Canara bank debit card to book the ticket. this had happened on 10th may, 2017 and there was no reply for the message or call. Kindly look at the issue and please refund the amount.
          Hereby, I have attached the passbook entry and the message of amount debited from KVB and the image of the ticket and the screenshot of amount debited from Canara bank for the same ticket. Please do consider this request.

          A mail was relieved from IRCTC, asking me to submit the bank statement if at all the money was credited to IRCTC. As I had the bank statement, I had submitted the copy of it with the message that I had received from the bank. The amount was credited after verification to the same account after 5 days.

              Respected sir/madam,

              I request you to kindly look into the matter as my mother and I had to travel from secunderabad to vadodara due to exigency of my grandmother's health.

              I bought the tatkal ticket over the counter after waiting for 2hrs in queue in the morning and got the tatkal ticket with waiting list, hoping to get confirmed.

              Next day we reached platform and to our surprise the ticket was not confirmed and I stood in queue to get it cancelled.
              But till my turn came the person at the counter told I can't get refund.

              It's merely day robbery under the name of rules. First of all we were not alloted seats above it tatkal waiting seat nor got cancelled automatically neither refunded.
              It's matter of Rs.6015/- not Rs.50 or 100/-.

              I don't understand IRCTC was not at a loss of 2 seats as it was not even a confirmed then why can't they return our hard earned money.
              Instead I would have donated that money to an orphanage who are more needy than IRCTC.

              I request to seriously look into the matter so that it wont happen again with others or the general public will totally not believe or trust IRCTC in future.

              My train ticket details:
              PNR No.:[protected]

              My ticket as an attachment for reference.

                Dear Sir

                I have booked PNR- [protected] on 25th May in Tatkal Quota.

                At the time of booking, status of ticket was available. During the completion of the transaction the status changed to waiting list and final number alloted was TQWL 67.
                On cancellation, Railway has deducted Rs 60/- as cancellation charge.

                How is this charge justified? Either the ticket should not have been booked in the first place or a warning should be given before the transaction take place.

                We request you to take this as a technical fault in the process which is amounting to unnecessary loss of money to constumers and un-justified income to railways (in Lacs maybe)

                            Hi,
                            There is a bug in irctc web

                            1) when we search trains from station - to station then submit.
                            2) click on any class e. G. Sl for any train
                            3) then click on sl class for another train it will again ask for credentials and log out automatically
                            Note:not taking time to click on another train class, after clicking quickly as well its getting an error
                            Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                                I have been trying to book tatkal confirm ticket from Delhi to Rewa since 4 days. The network is getting jammed as soon as I click on Book at 10 am. I have tried best 4g networks with tested speeds and also different people tried from different systems, but everyday I am getting "waiting" status.
                                I doubt if the online booking is deliberately jammed for consumers so as to allow agents and all to take entire set of tickets.
                                Please look into this.
                                Travellers who can't afford agent face a lot of problem, despite being on best network.

                                  I am having my irctc account username as abhay4059 which has been suspended. I was having 700rs in my irctc e-wallet which i had added just a few hours before the suspension. I also paid 50rs as registration amount at the same time. Irctc suspended my account and even has not been responding my emails and phone calls adequately for 5 months. Kindly help me in this issue and help me get retrieved my account and the money.

                                  Dear Sir,
                                  It is often seen that when we try booking a tatkal ticket at 1100 hrs, the IRCTC servers are in maintenance phase and when the maintenance is over we don't get any confirm ticket. Please resolve as we have a faith in the govt.

                                  I had made ticket online through irctc web on 9th may 2017 and it got failed while transaction was made and the money got debited from my account, and till now I have not got amount to be return in my account. Kindly refund it as soon as possible.

                                        I wrongly done two transactions. I got my amount for first transaction
                                        and I didn’t receive my amount of Rs.1022 for second transaction . In

                                        Still Now, I didn’t receive any amount.

                                        When I done my second transaction, Error message came like " No seats available". But amount debited with my account.
