    As I was travelling in South East Railways, I found out that the standards of catering service is very poor, the staff does not disclose the proper rate charts or menu, they do not respond well to inquiries for the same, the food item is sold in the station outlets at a price more than the printed MRP, they do not provide a proper printed bill for the food items ordered. In case of inquiring about proof of rate like menu or bill, the staff starts behaving rudely

      Payment for 2 tickets (sr citizen) by 2AC in train no. 12786 vide ref no. GABFRKCF2 from SBI has been done and as these two tickets were confirmed in different coaches, ticket processing was aborted and no reservation has been done. Then payment for 2 tickets in 3AC in the same train was done vide ref no. GABFRJLO2 from SBI, but no reservation has been processed. Though bank has confirmed the payment in both the above cases and no reservation has been processed, it is requested to refund the same.

          An amount of rs.555.0 was deducted from my bank account for booking of train ticket of my son nelson hijam (Age-16years) for train no.12839, sleeper class; journey date:[protected] from howrah station to vijaywada station. For debiting the amount from my bank account in favour of the railway/ irctc the transaction reference sent by the bank is ref no icabfpoer4 for rs.555.0 on 30 apr-17 21:32. But inspite of such deduction and payment to irctc no information for booking of the ticket is received.
          So it is requested to send the confirmation message of booking ticket or otherwise refund my money immediately.
          Yours faithfully

            Sir/Mam
            I have tried to book my tatkal ticket from Nasik Road to Malkapur of Train CSTM AMI EXPRESS 12111 on date 01/04/17 at 11.12 am. Through IRCTC OFFICIAL APP.

            Second Sleeper ticket charges of Rs. 415+ service charge= total 423.59 has been debited from account successfully.
            But I didn't get any type of tatkal ticket though there are availability of seats at that time.
            I sincerity request you either issue me said ticket today or return my Rs. 423.59.
            I'll wait for today.
            Tomorrow I'll file charges against Rail Department, Related Officials in Consumer Forum and forward same to Hon. Min. Suresh Prabhu.
            As I have proof of amount deducted through IRCTC Online ticketing.

            Waiting for positive reply..

              I tried to book two Tatkal tickets on 01/05/2017 on Matsyagandha Express (12619) from Thane to Surathkal amounting to Rs. 1350. Even though Rs. 1361.50 (ticket amount + charges) was debited from my bank account, i didnt get any tickets. This is the 2nd time in 2 years that Railways has taken my hard earned money without bothering to give me tickets. This is utter robbery. Kindly give me my money back at the earliest.

                    Please activate my irctc account diya29
                    It was deactivated by IRCTC.

                    I called up the IRCTC Customer care number and also logged my ticket using [protected]@irctc.co.in, but havent got any response yet.

                    Please help.

                          My complain is against the IRCTC approved Kwality Caterers. During my journey from Harmoty To New Delhi, started from 18/04/2017 in Naharlagun-New Delhi AC express I have charged rupees 130 by the Kwality caterers for the lunch instead of it's real price rupees 55. I want to also add that the quality of the meal was worst. And I felt very ill after taking the lunch.

                          During this journey I was in train no-22411
                          And was seated in coach no. B10 and birth no.66.

                          So I am requesting you to take some necessary actions against them.

                          Thanking you.

                          My complain is against IRCTC approved Kwality Caterers. During my journey which was started on 18/04/2017, from Harmoty to New Delhi in Naharlagun-New Delhi AC express I was in train no.22411 and coach no. B10 at seat no.66.

                          During my long journey I had taken my lunch on 19/04/2017 from the pentry car catrer but for the lunch they had charged me rupee 130 instead of it's real price 55 rupees and with this I want to also add that the quality of the meal was worst and I felt very ill.

                          So I requesting you to take some necessary actions against them.

                          Thinking you.

                            When making payment there was no option to make payment via idbi bank, it was there before, idbi does not charge transaction fees,. This way poor people have to open account in other bank and pay transaction charges to book tickets on irctc, however i can make payments using idbi but i have to select first paytm and then select idbi as option using this option i can make payment using idbi by paying transaction charges.

                                  Hi,

                                  On 26th April 2017 I had been to Bangalore city railway to drop my wife as she was travelling to Hyderabad.

                                  As we reached late to station around 6.20 in evening.i forgot to take the platform ticket.

                                  Later when I was going out of the platform I was checked by the tc for platform ticket and I had no platform ticket.. and I was fined 310/- which I paid.

                                  However I asked ur tc who wore black blazer to display his I'd card. He kept on denying it and abused me and grabbed my collar and beat me. I asked his name he mentioned "tulsidas" I don't know if it's true or not. Somehow ppl gathered and made him to calm down and he kept on abusing me just to display his I'd card as he was behaving very unprofessional from the beginning. He was not fit to be a tc with his mannerisms.

                                  Kindly Reqyest you to take action and make sure tc behaves properly with people every one who doesn't have platform ticket or might have missed due to hurry are not thieves or robbers. Ask him to learn to differentiate people and behave properly. Even after paying fine he cannot grab my collar and beat me. This could be a police case against him.
