Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] Complaints & Reviews

Sir, Sub:No ticket examiners in reserved coaches, unreserved passengers rushed to reserved compartments, Loco pilot starting the train in main stations without the horn and with high speed. Myself with my family were travelling from Ernakulam Junction-ERS (Kerala state) to Vadakara-BDJ (Kerala st) on 23rd May 2015 with reserved tickets in Cannanore express train no 16305. Our PNR no was [protected]. The seats were allotted in compartment D2. No Ticket examiners were came in our coach to verify the tickets on that day in that 240 Kms distance. So lot o[censored]nreserved passengers were rushed into that compartment and many reserved passengers including senior citizens had to face very difficulty sitting their allotted seats. More than that lot of luggage (such as big card board carton boxes, sacks etc) were dumped in that compartment by many passengers. This created very much difficulty while going to the toilets and for purchasing the eatables in between the stations. The loco pilot showed his immaturity in driving the train. He started the train without a horn and suddenly increased the speed from the Shornnur junction. This is a main junction from the passengers can get their breakfast and other necessities. Due to the reason said above i.e., lack of TTE's, some of the doors of the compartment were not opened. Myself with other passengers had to struggle and become Bollywood action cinema actors to jump into the compartment. So please take action to make the train journey more comfortable Thanking you Jishnu.V.B ph [protected]

IRCTC deducted Rs 11.25 from my sbi account no[protected] on[protected] saying that "DEBIT ICJ[protected]IG0AADDOQ9Commission of IG0AA". Even after paying service tax for booking train tickets from their site they deducted 11.25rs from my account that too without informing me. This seems that IRCTC is looting us people . I want to know why this deduction occured and i want my money back.

as you all know that IRCTC is the PSU company but now its performance is too bad.when i login to IRCTC this show error, when i check the availability it show error.it give again and again for login. this is truth that all tatkal ticket booked by its agent not by its user. this is public sector company but it is not doing the favour of public. now this is corrupt company....

Sir, I am a customer of IRCTC for the last few years. I regularly book the ticket through irctc E-Tickets. Now for the last few days, I am unable to book my tickets through irctc, though I open the site through my ID and My Password. But I am unable to click the Journey date for which I don't know the reason. Kindly help me. I wonder Is there any limitations to book the tickets??? If so this message is not showing in the site which I opened. Kindly help me to sort out this problem. Thank You, G.Venkateswaran.

I dont know what that happen and i think all the irctc representative knew everything what this all went but no one will go to take any kind of action against it.in my opinion that is the worst and corrupt system running in india.please take the necesaary action against it if the corporation can so that the people may not face that kind of problem and take the services as per their need smoothly.

I was travelling on 21st may 2015 from NDLS to PNBE in train number 14004. Mymseat number was 45, SL in 2 tier. I boarded the train from New Delhi itself and the next morning when train was at Varanasi cant, i was in half sleep with curtains pulled down checking all my luggage. Then within 15 minutes of time interval from 9.45 to 10.00 am i fell asleep and immediately got up as i felt something touched me. In a alarming situation I cross checked my luggage and found my mobile phone missing which was in my hand before I slept. I looked for it every where closer n asked the attendant for complaint book as there were many vendors in the train while it stopped at stations. By the rules local vendors are not allowed in the boggie. Later TTE dint help me and only asked me to write a note about the same with basic details. I asked for a complaint book n they dint give me any. I lost my property and even then they were hardly concerned. Many people complained for AC as well but the attendant kept ignoring or procrastinating. I spent 1900 rupees for such lame service. IRCTC wouldnt bother to look in to the matter but it was my responsibility to raise a complaint. If needed i can take this further but wouldnt settle on such service.

Hi, I was travelling in KOP-HYB 11304 Exp. At Guntakal Jn. I thought of buying a 2 Ltr Water bottle which has got 30/- MRP. But the vendor charged me 35/- stating 5/- for cooling and that he needs to pay to railways for electricity and all. I don't know what kind of charges you are collecting, but when it has got MRP it should be sold according to that price, right? Please find below the service/license number mentioned on the shop. G/C. 79/GMUs, JS Enterprises.

Recently, I was not able to book any tatkal tickets eventhough i have a very good internet connection and enough speed. This is happening for past 3 weeks. when i refreshed to book now immediately web page went into a "Web page not available state ". Please help us to book the tatkal tickets. I am always trying to book tickets from either Madurai to Chennai or Chennai to Madurai. Thanks, Pandian

First IRCTC site does not open between 10-12 AM, although my speed is good. Secondly when site is opened anyhow and tried to book a ticket message flash " You can not booked more than 2 tickets between 10-12AM". This is what? It is corruption, systems have been manipulated in such a way, that a common man can not booked a ticket. Even after several trials, I did not book ticket. I have 3G WIFI connection, and at the time of booking between 10-12 AM, nobody else accessing internet. other sites were open very fast except IRCTC. the message, which I have received " You can not booked more than 2 tickets between 10-12AM". It seems that there is a big fraud and corruption.

I was travelling recently from DEL to HYD. by AP Sampark Kranti Express. During the meal serve i have asked the catering guy to show me Menu card so that i can easily identify what is given in 90 Rs Veg-Thali. But he denied to tell. Moreover what i noticed is The same Thali which was left suring lunhc time was given to me in Dinner. I asked this to guy he responded "Sir ab jo bach jata hai wo kisi na kisi ko to milega hi" This is really poor response that any o[censored]s can get. Today Honble Railway Minister is celebrating the 365 Days of NDA govt and talking all good good things about, but i must say reality is even worse. Not sure how this complain actually gonna work. But as frequent traveller Thought i should brought this so called "Higher Management"
