      In the ticket with PNR number "[protected]", one passenger ticket status is CKWL. The journey date of ticket is 30th Apr, 2015. But we did not receive refund amount of CKWL ticket. So please look into the issue and initiate refund as soon as possible.

              I had booked train ticket two months in advance for my travel. Before my travel date, while i am trying to search for booked ticket, its not found in my transaction history due to IRCTC had migrated their service to new generation service portal. Keep on searching the tickets its not found, other tickets booked in new generation portal only shown. Dont know, what i have to do. Irctc care, not assisting me to view and cancel, care is asking you want to cancel that PNR or not? Also, i lost 950 Rs/- for to and fro travel, because of not able to view the tickets and cancel the same last month.

                      Again TATKAL booking through Online is a big question mark. Is IRCTC purposely doing this or is this a system fault. Whatever it may be, I am going to file a RTI to find out how many TATKAL tickets are booked by individuals through Online in the past one month and how many are booked by Agents. I feel, IRCTC is doing this for getting business to Agents. Either some error message is flashed or it states not reachable. Hope the concerned authorities will look into this issue and solve it on priority.

                        We had booked the ticket for train 16589 / RANI CHENNAMMA from Yesvanthpur to Hubli at 9:27pm. We struggled so much that unable to locate the coach number (B3) and we also see that all B1, B2 are not in sequence. Our coaach was very at the end, with kids and ladies struggled in station for 5 minutes.Train left by that time my few family members were inside and there was no connection since next to one was General. I feel that respective railway stations should display the coach no's without which passengers will struggle. Also all coaches should be in sequence, otherwise very difficult for passengers to locate within 2 minutes. I hope respective authorities will take care and take proper action.

                            Dear IRCTC Customer care Team,

                            I booked a 3 AC ticket from Secunderabad (SC) to Palasa (PSA) underPremium Tatkal quota.
                            While searching for Trains, ticket fare showed us Rs. 1515 only perpassenger.
                            After completion of booking, IRCTC cut an amount of Rs. 9565.
                            Why, this much higher charge for four people? Itis nothing but, cheating.
                            Even though there is a note website stating that fares are dynamic, IRCTC is not showing the exact fare while booking the tickets.
                            We are upset because of this highest fare which is almost equal toFlight fare.
                            We could not enjoy the trip due to this sudden surprise / financialburden.
                            As a Government firm, IRCTC should not do like this.
                            While completing bank transaction, no one will check as ticketswill not be available under Tatkal/Premium Tatkal quota if delayed further.

                            I request IRCTC to refund the difference in fare(between Tatkal & Premium Tatkal) at the earliest.

                              The quality of the food provided here in the IRCTC catering services(Non Railway Catering Unit Info Park, Cochin) is getting downgraded day by day. Today[protected] we had lunch(North Indian Meals) in the Food Court which costs 55 rs. I need to mention that the rotti we are served with is like a still sheet and were not able to chew as well, the curries provided with that are almost rotten. If we are frequently having food from there, no one know what are health is going to be over a period of time. Atleast they can provide us an average meal for the price we are paying them, or else if the money for the meals is not a profitable for them then they should increase the cost and provide a good quality price. The most of the items served are not even hot at the peak lunch time(1.15PM). I will be very great full if someone can do something on this food catering team.

                                      D/Sir This month I had a LAN connection, before it I always book ticket through bsnl modem and never failed to book tatkal ticket using my personal id for personal tickets. but This month whenever I tried to book ticket for Hyderabad every time it shows this site is unavailable at this moment. Thus I failed to book ticket at tatkal moment. It happen today also but it was my luck that I got tatkal ticket for Intercity express only after the same happen at 10.05am.So please enquire the matter seriously.
