When are going to book a room of IRCTC SAMPATH RAIL YATRI NIVAS at Howrah Railway station, the staff of Yatri Nivas first told no vacant room is available but we requested again and again then he asked extra money Rs. 100/- for him(this money is non refundable), this is the regular practice. Vacant room is available but they are not willing to give the room to the customer because of the extra income, this is illegal but they are doing. Kindly look into the matter.

This is to inform that the amount of Rs 11.70 was deducted from my account and without my authorization. This is lapse pertaining to fraud on part of Both SBI as well as IRCTC. Also I had not booked any ticket in past 15 days so why the deduction happened. 19-Dec-2015 (19-Dec-2015) TO TRANSFER INB Commission 11.40

Sir, Lots of people faced similar kind of problem that I have faced during Tatkal Ticket reservation. As you know there are lots of traffic during tatkal ticket booking time. I want to tell you current scenario for booking tatkal ticket: 1. The time of booking, Irctc will show no. of available seats. 2. After pressing the ticket for book, Irctc will never tell you the status of ticket i.e whether status has changed to waiting or still available. 3. After payment it will show you got a wait listed ticket or confirmed. 4. Now I have option to cancel this ticket or wait for chart preparation and wait for automatic cancellation. But now if i have to cancel this ticket they will charge the cancellation fee. As you remember I have booked the ticket when it was showing available. But because Irctc will never tell you final seat status before payment, I can get waitlisted ticket also. After that I have to cancel this ticket and loose my cancellation amount. (Point to remember I have booked because irctc showing seat was available but still in the end I loose my money... interesting ) This is the situation not with me only, but maximum people getting similar scenario. Now how much money railway run by doing this: For example in one day you take 100 trains with 100 wating list. people will loose 60*100*100 = rs 600000 per day. That means 180 lakhs per month. That means around 24 crores each year. This is fully cheating by railways. If I have booked when ticket was available and in this situation I will get waiting list Tatkal ticket, they should return all the booking amount without cutting the cancellation price. I know the situation of railways during Tatkal reservation, they can not hold the ticket for long time like redbus or bookmyshow doing. So I want to give one suggestion that just you remove cancellation fee for tatkal ticket for atleast 1 hour of time. SO that people should not feel cheated.

Sir, I have booked 2 senior citizen tickets (pnr- [protected]) in train no- 17006 on 16.11.15 at that time status was wait list for journey dt 27.12.15. Now after getting chart prepared seats confirmed are B1- 1 and B3-6. As births are separate and B3- 6 is upper birth for senior citizen lady travel become problematic kindly adjust it to lower birth

I had booked two retiring rooms for 24/12/2015 in Madurai Station on 12/09/2015 with TID [protected] and Ref No. MDURR309116 through IRCTC. The allotted room numbers were No.25 single room and No.22 A/c deluxe double room. But on 24/12/2015 when I went there for check in, the in charge of the retiring rooms informed me that the room No.22 A/c deluxe is not in use for the last six months due to some fire problem. After that they allotted room No.18 ordinary A/c room instead of room No.22. My question is why they allowed me to book the room as it was not in use for the last six months and made this type of inconvenience. I also request to that the excess amount paid my be shall be refunded to my account.

I was booking tickets for my relatives. There are 6 members in one ticket. And I asked for upper, middle and lower berth. There are 4 female and a kid. And irctc has given my all side upper births and for kid they have booked a birth in another coach. This is very ridiculous service and if appropriate action is not taken to correct this I will escalate this matter to higher level even to the railway ministry.
