        Hello sir/madam,

        This is to inform that today morning @11am I tried booking tatkal ticket but it was unpleasant experience. The server was showing message " You are permitted to book only 2 tatkal tickets between 10am and 12pm per IP user" continuously during tatkal booking period; Even though I didn't made any bookings beforehand.

        I would like to request you to please fix this issue as soon as possible.

          No resolution has been provided till date. I had first complaint on 26th nov and again second complaint on 18th mar, but still no resolution. Today i received a call from number [protected] stating they are calling from irctc.. They said they would refund me 1120 for my two tickets and he asked me to give my kotak bnak acc no nad crn no. I was not comfortable to share my account details over a call to some unknown person so he said speak to office and dissconnected the call. Is this the way the people from irctc talk to client..

          I need my refund of the amount before my journey or it would be very promising for each one.

                        Good day, i have booked train tickets on irctc mobile app on 22.02.2017 & 11.03.2017. On both these occasions my tickets haven't been booked but my bank account has been debited for the ticket charges.in this case, i contacted irctc customer care on the very same day, and heard it will be returned to your bank account in 4-5 days. But still i haven't received both the refunds and even i confirmed with my bank and they also confirmed there is no reversal from irctc to your account.in this case i made a repetive calls to customer care but no one bothers to pick the call. Even i tried via e-mail but no response and even through twitter also no solution to the issue.

                              I am regular user of IRCTC to book my ticket and we used to get the option to opt for insurance as 'Yes' or 'No' but nowadays there is only 'Yes' option available which means we are forcefully sold the insurance against our will.

                              It says 0 Rs per person however 0.92 paise is charged. Attaced is the image.

                              Kindly immeditaly advise and action against this.

                                I booked tickets on March 10, the transaction got successful but tickets were not booked.

                                I got no mail or message from IRCTC regarding the same.

                                  Then I'm mail IRCTC customer care. they give me a ticket no. 5245460

                                  They are said that your debited amount deposit your account 7 working days. But, no amount credit my account. So, when i call next time IRCTC help line number they give me a account statement.

                                  I attach a account statement, please solve the issue.

                                        I have selected the preference of 2 lower berths and both in same coach.
                                        The booking got confirmed with 2 upper berths without showing any warning or without asking for my confirmation.

                                        I would like you to cancel this booking and provide me full refund as it is an technical issue in your website.

                                        I tried contacting the chennai customer care, but there was no response.

                                        1:- berth preference is checked by the system and, if available, is
                                        Allotted. If the seats are not available according to berth preference,
                                        Other seats are given to the passengers.

                                        2:- reservation choice as mentioned below: "book only if 1 lb allotted",
                                        "book only if 2 lb allotted", "book only if compact accommodation allotted" is meant for those who do not want to book the ticket if the desired seats are not available.in
                                        This option after making payment, if it is found that lower berth or compact accommodation not available then system will give two options:-

                                        Yes:- book ticket without any choice “book any”.
                                        No:- ticket not booked with your choice.

                                        I am aware of the steps already. I booked tickets previously.

                                        This time during my booking, i was not given the choice of

                                        Yes:- book ticket without any choice “book any”.
                                        No:- ticket not booked with your choice.

                                        This could be due to a system behaviour issue. I am sure, i would have selected 'no' if the message was shown to me as my parents are 60+ and can't climb up to upper berths.

                                        Hence, i request you to assist me to resolve this issue by one of the below explained options:

                                        Option 1: cancel the booking and refund my money as there was a technical glitch in your system

                                        Option 2: please file dispute for this transaction, so that i get benefited
