Hi,
I had a booking for 21 feb on train 22694 nzm-sbc rajdhani exp. The train got cancelled because of Haryana jat quota strike. The refund has not happened YET. We went to station Nizammuddin where there was announcement and even the Enquiry confirmed the same.
The pnr no is [protected]
Transactin id [protected]

We got a cancellation SMS too from irctc.

but irctc has not refunded the amount until now and refused to refund.

regards
Venkat

          Hi Team,
          I Vishesh Patodia had booked an air ticket for my father Mr.Pawan Patodia through irctc website, transaction Id [protected] and after receiving the ticket I found that there is mistake in passenger name, the passenger name given in ticket is Vishesh Patodia instead of Pawan Patodia but I am vey sure that the passenger name mentioned by me at the time of booking is Pawan Patodia and under contact details I had entered my name. From past two days I have been trying to reach the toll free call center[protected] but either the number is busy or they keep us in waiting for very long and later asks us to call back also I had written an email to [protected]@irctc.co.in regarding this but we got a reply to call on the same toll free number as mentioned above. Therefore request you to please take up the issue on priority basis as the travel date is on April 04, 2016.
          Regards
          Vishesh

                  For tatkal tickets, there is no cacellation. In emergency cases only we have postponed or cancelled our travelling. For that we have a wonderful option like tdr. Even that also not there, how passengers feel free to travel through irctc. Please consider this and process my tdr.

                          I was trying to book a ticket on the dli-dbrg suvidha special. I gave my seat preference as sl i.E. Side lower.
                          The system asked me to enter my payment details which i did, after which the message was displayed that my seat preference could not be fulfilled. At the same time, the ticket money had already been deducted from my account.
                          This, when i had specified in my choices that i only wanted the ticket to be booked if my preferred seat was allotted.

                          If irctc cannot fulfill my seat choice preference, why is it deducting money from my account beforehand? If i am short of money in my account, i cant even avail the option of booking a ticket in some other train.

                          Why offer this facility only if the idea is to grab the money from the consumer first and then pretending to provide the service promised?

                          This process can cause trouble to consumer if the consumer isn't aware of it beforehand, and doesn't have large account balance at hand.

                                    The train ticket was charged 3times the actual price it's ok. the amount of service we get after payuing 4000 for the ticket of just 1100 is not worth.
                                    The catering service provder do not provide the proper meal also i asked for the meal he said we will adjust in morning also he do not provide the complain no. in morining also he do not provide the proper meal as per the breakfast.
                                    i think there is big scam is going in catering service as well as in ticket price.
                                    the goverment should check.?
                                    hope some action would be taken .

                                        Hi team,

                                        I had done transaction on 23rd dec 2015 for reservation on 21 feb 2016 but came to know from internet and dial no. 139 that train is cancelled on 21 feb 2016.

                                        Amount of rs . 1380 was not refunded. Irctc is not taking this issue on priority even after my multiple mails.

                                        Mentioned below are the details.

                                        I am also facing the same issue. Looks like IRCTC is interested in robbing our money. Lets take action against IRCTC
                                        We are awaiting for your positive resolution... It has been too long. No one from ITCTC is taking it seriously but straight away refraining themselves, stating that money can't be refunded as you are late whereas customer care guys from ITCTC told that it takes one week time. Money will be refunded.

                                        Please help.
