Our journey date is 13 December 2016 in JP -BCT exp .the train no is 12956. But tickets gone into tatkal waiting list of 44, 45, and 46. The waiting list does not clear on 13 December 2016.So my friend got SMS that your tickets have been cancelled and tickets amount that is rs 1920 has been refund to your account after deduction of rs 180 rs for tatkal charge. So the amount refundable is rs 1740. but the amount yet not been credited to my account . So it is my humble request to you to request them to refund my money ASAP because I am a student and 1740 is not a small amount for me. Please work on this complaint ASAP. Your sincerely and humble user and victim Shabbir kapra. And my bank account number is [protected]

Payment is successful but ticket is not getting booked. It says "Currently this service is unavailable. We regret the inconvenience caused. Please try after some time."

I had made a booking on train no. 19040 avadh express on 9th dec 2016 from surat (St) to bdts bearing pnr no.[protected] in class sl. Since, the train was late 14hrs 55min (Ie by more than 3 hrs.), i had filed tdr online through irctc website and booked another ticket on train no. 19038 avadh express on 10th dec 2016 from surat (St) to bdts bearing pnr no. [protected] in class 3a. This train was also late by 6hrs 7min (Ie more than 3 hrs) and hence tdr was filed online for this ticket also. Eventually, i travelled from surat (St) to bdts on 10th dec 2016 by train no. 19020 dehradun bdts exp by ticket bearing pnr no.[protected] in class sl.

Passenger details: peter jacob, m-35 and jacob thomas, m-65

Both tdrs have been processed with result for pnr no.[protected] being a refund of rs.60/- against rs. 295/- and that for pnr no. [protected] being cr repudiate against a refund of rs. 800/-. As per irctc refund rules full refund is permissible in case of train late by more than 3 hrs. But this has not been refunded to me. I request irctc to process the refund of the full journey amount as per extent railway rules.

I had booked an tatkal ticket last week. while log in there ticket were 101 tickets available. and at the time i am completing my transaction i was in wait list 79(TQWL 79).
And the ticket was auto cancelled by irctc it self. and i got sms that amount 355 will be refunded. once i enquired customer service they told amount will get credited in 6 days. but i did not get any amount from irctc.

Receipt given by TT is attached here.

I have booked a ticket from ANVT
to PNBE on 4th Aug, 2016 and Date of Journey was 5th Aug 2016.
For reason the train was late more than three hours and passengers have not travelled, I filled the TDR for the same in IRCTC against my ticket and the
status was turned to CR Registered, but the amount was not refunded yet.
I am not sure what else I might be missing to get amount refunded. Please let me know what I can do further or else you can send sms to mob no : [protected] or drop a mail to rajk.[protected]@gmail.com

Dear sir,
There has been an issue with my refund of Rs 2030 in my bank account.
I had made a cancellation of ticket on 29th of November, 2016 (PNR : [protected]).
I was supposed to get a refund of Rs 2030 within 4-7 days. Whereas my status on the site shows amount sent to bank but I have gotten no such amount on my bank account. Please take into consideration my problem. I have tried to call on customer care service but it charges my balance and no one responds.

I am very sad that IRCTC, such a reputed company has very poor logic implemented in the website.
I booked a retiring room at 08:12:37 PM on 01 Dec, 2016 for 12 hours, Check in date : 01-Dec-2016 and Check out date 02-Dec-2016. Logically, It should be booked the room for 01-Dec-2016 08:00 PM to 02-Dec-2016 08:00 AM but It had been booked for 01-Dec-2016 08:00 AM to 01-Dec-2016 08:00 PM, that too when I booked it at 08:12:37 PM.
Can someone from IRCTC tell me how it is possible to book a room for past time?

I would suggest the company to do the proper testing before launching any component of website to live and of course I want the compensation for the inconvenience cause.

Thanks,
Anuj Kumar

Respected Sir/MAdam,

I have booked my return three tickets from Jaipur to Bandra (Aravali Express) dt.11.12.2016 in Sleeper as well as 3A, I got a Chart preparation message from IRCTC that my 3 sleeper tickets got RC seat and in 3A tickets 2 are on waiting and 1 got RC seat, so I didn't cancelled any of the tickets and my one ill friend travelled in 3A RC Seat and We two travelled in Sleeper class, as I was unaware of the fact that in Partial tickets confirmation we have to cancel other tickets, before 30 minutes of the train departure after 2-3 I called on railway helpline number Mr.Rishabh (As it was busy for 2-3 days) that I am not eligible for refund, so can i get benefit of doubt as I was travelling for the 1st time for so long journey and I paid for 6 tickets as we are only 3 persons to travel. My PNR Number for 3A is [protected] and Sleeper class is [protected].

I am getting a message "Bookings are not allowed as your account has been suspended." in the my IRCTC account.

IRCTC account name is rail_kam

I had also written mail to [protected]@irctc.co.in. But there is no response.

I am using my irctc online booking for many years.

Please help me is resolving this issue.

General feedback:
Whatever logic to be applied for suspension should be built on the online booking site. Like only one ticket between 8am to 12 pm.

Thanks
Kamalakkannan
