    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.
    Few months back I was wrongly accused by IRCTC of fraud during tatkal hours on the IRCTC website.
    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.
    My user id: smit2001
    Thanks.

Of [protected], [protected] & [protected] they had refused while saying the train was on time and ran from the station and after that i have put so many mails to irctc but no one answered my mail. Now i finally got the reply while saying that the train run on time but it was not ran and irctc refund my amount for 2 pnr no. Which i mentioned above and now how they can say that train run on time??? Please look into this matter as soon as possible because it has been more then 6 months and release my due amount.

              I booked a tatkal ticket using irctc site today (25th april 2016). When i booked, i wrongly selected the gender as 'female' instead of 'male'. Since that is a tatkal ticket, i don't get money back if i cancel.

              I contacted irctc customer care (139). They are sauying can't edit the ticket, have to cancel the ticket and book again, but its tatkal ticket and i wont get money back.

              Please advice on this...

              Info: i have all proof of documents(Pan card, aadhar card) to show it was wrongly selected the gender as 'female' instead of 'male'.

                Today i.E.[protected] i was travelling on ldh ndls shatabdi express (Train no: 12038). They had poor service even after paying the service tax to government. We are paying 600 per passenger for ticket, so that we can get the good service and food but not. I board the train at tohana(Tun) station they didn't provide the water bottle even i'd asked them for about 5 to times at last they give water to me after 45 min(Approx). After that i'd asked for any drink then waiter said you have forgotten to ask for drink now drinks are finish, literally i was shocked no sense at all.Coming to their mess some passengers take picture and video of mess they will definitely upload on pm website and irctc also. The food quality was very very poor. If they didn't provide the best service to us then why would we travel on this train. I would appreciate if you would make some changes in their management so that no passenger would never face this issue again and it will even increase the passengers list for this train. We will definitely pay thanks to irctc if irctc would take this complaint seriously and take some action.

There were three number of passengers. The final status of the ticket was passenger 1 - rac, passenger 2- wl and passenger 3 - wl 2 after chart preparation. We could not travelled as the 1 st passenger was going to two senior citizen patients to mumbai for treatment purpose and the ticket was not confirmed they could not travelled. Then i tried to cancel the rac ticket of 1 st passenger but the system not allowed for the same. Then the refund of 2 nd and 3 rd passenger should be automatically credited but the refund of the same is not credited to my account even after the lapse of 1 months from the date of journey. For this i have written more than 5 times at [protected]@irctc.Co.In but i have not get even a single reply.

                            Dear sir, i had booked below tikcet on line, but when i arrived at station the train was cancelled. I apporached ticket window they told me to buy new ticket and travel in next train. The current ticket will be automatically cancelled and money will be rolled back to my account.
                            I wrote to irtc but no reply from them. I did not get refund of the same.
