Hello i booked 3 tickets with pnr: [protected] from bandra to unjha on 7/7/16 morning... after sometime i cancelled my tickets due to change in plan.. according to policy 180rs cancellation charges has been deducted, that is ok... but i haven't received the remaining refund yet infact i got the message on 8/7/16 that you have received a refund of rs795 but today when i checked the balance i haven't received any refund yet. what pathetic service, i want my refund of 795 back asap... and more worse is customer service, they don't even pick up the call.. i wasted my balance... irctc will never improve their services... irctc sucks... mentally frustrated..

Respected sir,
I had booked a ticked through your online app and the confirmation message that i had received says that my both the tickets were confirmed. but when we arrived at the station we came to know that one ticket was confirmed whereas the other ticket is on waiting list. i have my family with me and tbis kind of harrasment is no way negligible. for the reference the message received is being attached below too. now the matter is to be noted that i was bewcharged for those tickets which were confirmed according to the message received, but on actual ground i have to suffer the discomfort of tavelling even after doing a journey of 80 kms to malda. this is simply the peak of misguidence and for this the price is being paid by us. i simply ask the concerned authority to answer me against this situation and also for the troubles that i and my family is bearing right now we ask for the compensation for the misguidence that was being done from your end. below is the msg that i had received. we hope to have impartial outcome from your point regarding this unfortunate case that happened to us.
With regards

Hey i want to complaint against the railway travel agent because of that the normal people were not make ticket online or by reservation counter the give to railway the commission that's why the normal people were not be able to book there ticket at home because of the travel agent these are bull people so i think that we must have to complaint against the travel agent and take a strict decision about him and give no seats to them only the normal people were able to book there ticket by himself or by the reservation counter

Hi,

I have recently filed a tdr against pnr number [protected] as i had booked 4 tickets in thetrain number 12840 and 2 of the tickets got confirmed while the 2 of them were under waitlist. However, i have received a reply from irctc stating that there would be 0 refund.

Here are the details of the tdr claimed:

1. Scheduled arrival of the train at the boarding station was 5:35 pm on 18th jun' 16

2. 2 of the tickets got confirmed after the chart was prepared at around 2:00 pm on 18th jun' 16

3. I had filed the tdr at 2:31 pm on 18th jun' 16 with the reason :

"party partially confirmed/waitlisted and all passengers did not travel."

Therefore, i should be receiving the complete refund as per the rules mentioned on the irctc website. Also, i have talked to irctc customer care twice and i have also sent a copy of this mail to the following id: [protected]@irctc.Co.In but there has been no response from either of them since 10 days.

Note: though the train started at 11:45 pm on 17th june' 16; the status of the train on the irctc website stated that the chart has not been prepared till 2:00 pm on 18th june' 16.

Thanks and regards,

On 12th june 2016 while travelling from new hasimara station to guwahati by train no 15657 bed rolls were not provided to 7 o[censored]s. pnr no [protected] & [protected] coach no b-1 seat nos. 2, 5, 6, 31, 32, 59, 60. coach was also not clean. matter was referred to mr tete (tte in the coach). written complaint was lodged. please take stringent action on the erring persons.

Recently my brother came over to our house from his work place via train. and i got to know that he bought a bottle of jal neer. he told me that he has bought it in rs 20 while its mrp was rs 15. then i got to know where ever you buy this you have to pay the price more than printed. this can be proved to be major scam if it is done. and i think the concerned authority should look into is as soon as possible

Dear Sir / Madam
I have been trying to approach IRCTC through to customer care service since a couple of months but am not able to get a resolution to my issue.
Though I have never ever misused the irctc websites and have been a long time user to book my travel tickets without causing any misconduct, my account was suspended
I was told that I will need to register using a different Mobile and Email. I dont have any other mobile
So does that mean I am not allowed to travel via Indian Railways hence forth without doing anything wrong?
I have not been also told what Fraud was done so that I could fight it.
No Doubt irctc is doing good by trying to stop frauds from misusing and making ticketing smooth
But is there no mechanism to separate the actual frauds from the genuine travelers like me?
Request your help on the issue at the earliest.

I just now booked a ticket through irctc website. the details of the tickets are as below :

Ticket details
Transaction id : [protected] pnr no. : [protected] train no. & name : 14056 / brahmputra mail
Date of booking : 06-jul-2016 class : second ac quota : general
Date of journey : 30-sep-2016 from : dli to : jmp
Boarding at : dli date of boarding : 30-sep-2016 reservation upto : jmp
Scheduled departure : 23:40 hrs

Passenger details
Sl. no. name age gender status coach seat / berth / wl no
1 permanand kumar 39 male cnf a1 42
2 aparna kumari 35 female cnf a1 44
3 sugita prasad 64 female pqwl 1

While booking the ticket, i selected the option "book only if at least two lower berths are allotted" as i have to travel with my old aged (64 years) mother and two small kids below one year of age.

Even after selecting the said option, the ticket booked is side upper and upper berth.

I contacted irctc customer care (no.[protected] and requested to check my requisition form filled by me at the time of booking the ticket.
The customer care executive confirmed the fact that i had selected the option "book only if at least two lower berths are allotted".
It was further added by customer care executive that since all the three berths were not confirmed, the option 'to continue in the absence of lower berths' was not given to me and tickets were booked directly.

It is not at all acceptable. this is purely fault on part of irctc and hence, why i should bear the cancellation charges, as i cannot travel with upper and side upper berths.
