Dear Sir, I was travelling from trivandrum to Nilambir road by Rajyrani express on15-April 2016.my luggage was stolen in between shornur and nilambur road which contains a lenovo laptop an mts netsetter a power bank and few of my dresses..the total value of the items will be almost 40000 . When I realised the theft, I looked for complaining it to the rpf officials and unfortunately there was none in the train and no rpf officials where available in the nilambir road railway station also.So I cant even file an fir.So what should I do now.it is really disappointing that there were no responsible security officers present in any of the reserved coaches.The security of passengers and luggage are less considered by indian railway.any one can run into a reserved coach and steal things and get away as things are like this.what shall we people do in such situation?is it like we should pay for sleeper coaches and stay awake for watching the luggages? The entry and exits should have to restricted to the reserved passenger and people with tickets only as in foreign countries.how long do indians have to wait for these I dont know

I am a registered user of IRCTC website and last year in the month of August I made several ticket bookings and subsequently cancelled some of them, but the refund was not taken place, whereas when I opened my IRCTC account it shows the refund was made. Nevertheless, I contacted the customer care of IRCTC and they asked me to send my credit card statement which I did promptly. Inspite of sending several times my credit card statements, every time they kept on asking for it. It went on like that and I sent more than 30-40 emails virtually begging them to pay my money. To my astonishement after sometime they stopped responding to my any of my mails. The IRCTC need to play almost Rs.7000/- as refund. I really don't know whom to contact and how to get justice in this case. Recently, I approached consumer court in Pondicherry, but they refused to take up my case by saying I have done online transaction hence it will not come under their jurisdiction. I am only writing this mail hoping that some where somebody will deliver justice to me. Thanks. I have with me all the correspondence that took place between me and the IRCTC customer care.

Mismanagement of tatkal system
Sir i tried to book tatkal ticket at 10 am (13/4/2016) for train no-12368. But on clicking at " book now ", i was shown a message -"no intermediate station found". I tried it again 4 times within a minute but the message continued (All details entered by me were correct). However, after a minute the message was not shown & i could navigate to next page. But by then it was ckwl.(Waiting list).

Sir there is deliberate attempt to block so that genuine attempt can be denied. Please see that we as a consumer can exercise our rights.

I am fed up with IRCTC reservation system…… Why some times they gives options for “Premium Tatkal ” and other times they “not release quota for Premium Tatkal”.
Can you Justify this……
With reference to Tatkal ticket in 12791 (SC-DNR) express for dated[protected]
Before Coming Premium Tatkal in this train[protected] seats (Approximately) all tatkal
After Premium Tatkal[protected][protected] (for normal tatkal) + 143 (Premium Tatkal)

Now when you goes for booking, this shows…..Premium Tatkal ( NOT AVAILABLE )
Why it shows like this …..where 143 SL seats gone for Premium Tatkal ?

Now come to…..Tatkal ticket...
Tatkal Quota….143 Seats (SL)
When you go for booking…then within 30 secs. It shows waiting
After going through payment option …..entering bank user ID password …..again submitting OTP (earlier it was direct payment)…..it use to cut “full money from account” and again it is going through half message WL/32 (message are like... weather you want to continue with waiting ticket)……..and also one again payment option gateway and till the time you understand what is happening ..its shows REGRET/CKWL 72 .
Just this irctc railways people are cheating people by halting ticket more time on payment gateway and not releasing ticket till it gets REGRET. Why these people are not able to tell for remaining 143 sleeper seats quota for Premium Tatkal.? Is this kind of service you people are providing to other?

Irctc charged service charge on tickets book by irctc site.
but when we cancel the ticket, service charge which was deducted on ticket will not be refunded.
if there is no service by railway. why they are not refunding the service charged money.
