      Dear sir,
      You want india to be digital and make payment through online transaction. While booking a tatkal ticket on irctc from home, payment portal exit twice showing "payment error". Then message comes amount is debited and transaction details shown as "reservation failed". What is this?
      I what my refund as soon as possible. If customer can't book their ticket online then what the use of irctc booking site.
      This indicent happened twice with me. I am fend up with this site and its usage.
      You making us fool and looting us. Jab payment error hai toh apne amount debit kaise kar diya...

        Respected sir/madam,

        I was booking a railway ticket from sealdah to jalpaiguri road station using my irctc mobile app, but i was not successful. Later i got a mail from my bank saying 683.87 rs have been deducted from my account by irctc although the ticket was not booked. Later again i had to book tickets via desktop website in which i was successful.
        I tried calling irctc's helpline number in order to get a refund for my previous failed booking but there is no response.

        Please help me.

        Regards,
        Aisharya shome

            Blankets provided were dirty. No towels provided. On asking told that no towels are provided in this coach. Pathetic situatation. Not at all happy. I have faith in the services which seems to be shattered by the response of onboard staff and their rude behaviour. Do we have to expect such below par services everytime we book in train??

              On the 3rd of May, I tried to book a ticket from Chennai to Bangalore. Due to some issue on either the bank's end or IRCTC's end, the transaction "failed" therefore the ticket was not booked, yet my money was deducted. After calling IRCTC's 3 phone numbers multiple times, the assured me that they could see that my money was indeed deducted and the ticket was not booked, they would refund the money to me. It has been 4 days, I have no complaint number and the money hasn't been refunded to me either. How long am I expected to keep calling them, asking for my money, especially when they don't even answer the phone call for hours together?

              These are my details:

              I request you to kindly refund the money to me soon.

I am unable to use the money lying in my IRCTC wallet and this amounts to incomplete information/fraud. Kindly help me update my new number or transfer the wallet money back to the bank account it came from.

                          I reached patna jn at 01.00 am on 29.04.2017 to board the train but it is notified by patna jn enquiry room and lcd display that the train himgiri express (12332) has been delayed by 14 hours and may come at patna jn at 03.45 pm on 29.04.2017, which has been also confirmed by the official of enquiry room.

                          Then i have decided for not travelling with himgiri express (12332) on 29.04.2017 because the train will come at patna jn delayed with 14 hours and filed tdr at 02.36 am on 29.04.2017 through irctcapp.

                          Today, i enquired through the irctc website about the status of tdr and refund of money, i found that tdr status-cr repudiate. Reason for tdr registration failed-invalid tdr timestmap: delay.

                          The reason shown is wrong and i am eligible for getting the refund of ticked for ticket tdr filed. I would request you to please look in to the matter for refund of money at the earliest.

                          Thanks and regards

                              I was travelled on 29 apr 2017 in shatabdi express from mas to kpd. I could see my ticket status food included. I asked catering service to provide the food. But catering service said food should not be provided for mas to kpd. Please let me know why food not provided.

                              Please take the necessary action. Otherwise don't include the food for mas to kpd passenger. It's really a bad service
