            HE PRABHU ! Iam the user o[censored]ser ID : EXNAVY1991 AT IRCTC site for the last over 5 years. I have been trying my luck for Tatkal Booking since 16/05/2015 from Narkatiaganj (NKE) to Anand Vihar Terminal (ANVT) or Delhi (DLI). But the moment Tatkal booking starts at 10:00 AM, once passenger particulars are entered and attempted to proceed further for booking, a message saying :The website is presently not available". On re-trying it shows the availability has been reduced and on 2nd attempt too the same message The website is presently not available" appears. However, the moment the Tatkal quota is finished followed by early wait lists, your site is available but of no use. This has been happening with me daily commencing 16/05/2015 till date when I have tried to book a Tatkal Ticket in : Porbander (Bapudham) Express from NKE to GGN, in Saptkranti Express from NKE to ANVT and Satyagrah Express from NKE to DLI. It is further very strange that while your site is said to be presently not available for Tatkal Booking, whereas, the site is simultaneously available for General Bookings like Premium Tatkal etc. It is probably established that your website for Tatkal Booking is being hacked for the first 2 minutes for general consumers and at the same time it is available to Agents/Touts. It can not be possible without the involvement of your staff members concerned. BECHARE "HE PRABHU" IS BEING MADE TO FAIL TO FULFIL THE DREAMS OF THE COUNTRYMEN BY HIS OWN TEAM OF IRCTC OFFICIALS. Can I expect an investigation and adequate response from a sincere IRCTC official ?

              my pnr no. [protected] I, along with my three colleagues was to board train no. 9726. The train was announced an hour late. After departure of Ashram Express, a train arrived and halted at platform 2. No announcement or display was done by station authorities. Taking it to be our train 9726 we searched for our coach C2. No TTE or other staff was seen on platform. The train started moving. Hurriedly we had to board the nearest coach. The TTE in the coach accosted us and said this was wrong train and demanded penalty. We got down at Bandikui station and waited for our train 9726 and boarded it. We three helpless ladies had to run here and there with luggage and suffer torturous moments. I am suffering from spinal ailment. The commotion aggravated the problem. All this happened due to carelessness of Awar station staff. Pl take stern action against the erring personnel and inform me Regards Archana Varshney

But in my case one is upper berth and another is side upper. As we could not travel in upper berth I immediately cancelled the tickets. But the cancellation charge is (367.47-225) Rs.142.47. Please clarify what is the actual charges for cancellation? Why lower berths are not allotted when there is more than 200 berths available? Please clarify.

However, since the short time between arrival and departure, we are not moving the person available in Counter No.3 at morning and he denied our claim, because the Rs.Zero only marked in ticket. Further due to short time only available to us and there was door locked between 3 AC coach and ordinary sleeper class, we are not able to conduct TTE at Train. now only we returned from Shirdi and we wants to claim the not traveled passenger ticket fair through your channel.

                      Site is hacked or made available to some particular organization.

                        Hi This is regarding my grievance with the IRCTC internet ticketing website. This website is doing the best thing in the country that is it is making whole country fool by offering tatakal ticket booking online. I think it is easier to go to mars than to book Tatakal ticket from IRCTC website. Let me explain my problem yesterday I was booking the tatakal ticket from IRCTC website after selection the train I am not getting the status of the ticket for that train rather I am getting the beautiful message like "website is down please try after some time". The best thing about this message is that this message was only coming to the customer's and not to the agents, even nasa would be proud of those developers who are maintaining this website. Today again I tried the booking for the next I got an extra gift from IRCTC that is "DUE TO MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY E-TICKETING SERVICE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE. INCONVENIENCE CAUSED IS DEEPLY REGRETTED", that's the most humble message I would have ever received .IRCTC developers starts maintaining the site in the pick time it continues till 11:30 and it is still not completed, what a genius developer team IRCTC has. I know that I am not the 1st one complaining about IRCTC online ticketing tools but who cares. At least IRCTC doesn't care about customer and importance of there time. There people enjoy there life in AC. Our PM tell us about digital India but IRCTC gift us Dark India. I know there won' be any improvement from IRCTC side but still writing this complaint.

                          Hi, I tried to book a ticket at tatkal time and the website was not allowing to complete the transaction instead of 2 times deductions of payment from my account. Again when i tried to book the ticket in premium tatkal the site displays a message "Maintenance Activity". The site is getting day by day a worst. Everytime when i tried to book a ticket in tatkal, i faced a transaction error, then mail the IRCTC team and ask them for the refund.

                            I have been a regular use of IRCTC for the past 5 years and I book ticket to go home every weekend. I have also used Tatkal option regulary with 80% success rate but for the last 6 months, I am getting weird errors and no ticket gets booked. Messages like, 1) Unable to process your request 2) IRCTC is undergoing maintenance 3) You request cannot be processed or It simply logs out of my account has been the norm when I am 200% sure of not making any mistake from my end. Once all tickets gets booked, then the website becomes normal. This problem has happened to me in my residance at chennai, bangalore temporary residance, my office or my relative place. Even I have changed devices. Over time, things have to improve, but how come it can become bad? Are there any actions being made to improve things. Apart from me booking tickets in bus and I am asking all my friends to do the same now.

                            While booking tatkal tickets, I got error of "DUE TO MAINTENANCE ACTIVITY E-TICKETING SERVICE WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE. INCONVENIENCE CAUSED IS DEEPLY REGRETTED".
                            If you can not run a simple website, than why don't you shut it down .!!

                                  For last two days, I'm trying to get Tatkal ticket to attend some family urgency. The movement I can see book now it doesn't move ahead with the message- 'Server not reachable". The moment (whether its two minutes or 15 minutes) the tickets are in the WL- everthing is available- server and speed. I understand with the amount of business, it'll not impact IRCTC to take care of general public- but we'll wait for few more years to have this corruption move out of system. Please don't respond the generic answer, as my taxable income is used to use the server bandwidth. Thank you for being what you are, Rohit

                                    I am trying to book the tatkal ticket, getting the error message : "This site is currently unreachable. Please try after some time". This error is frequent and we can't proceed any more till all the seats are filled, so we end up without booking. I am seeing this from last few days, probable a week. Where as previously this was not the case. There were no such errors and site was very smooth and faster in bookings. Please look into it fix the site error while booking tatkal ticket.

                                      I HAD TRAVELLED WITH MY FAMILY FROM BANGALORE TO BHUVANESHWAR IN PRASHANTHI EXPRESS ON 9TH OF THIS MONTH AND RETURNED ON11TH. IT IS VERY SAD TO SAY THAT THE FOOD SERVED IN THE R TRAINS WAS HORRIBLE AND CANNOT BE CONSUMED BY HUMAN BEEINGS. AUTHORITIES ARE CONCERNED ONLY TO CHARGE HEAVILY BUT THE QUALITY IS VERY SUB STANDARD. WE HAD A FEELING THAT WHEN MR. COMES IN POWER THERE WOULD BE SOME CHANGES BUT REGRET TO SAY THAT IT IS WORSTER THAN BEFORE. MINISTRY IS ALWAYS CRY FOR A FARE INCREASE BUT NEVER BOTHER TO MONITOR THESE KIND OF THINGS . ALSO MANY PEOPLE ARE TRAVELLING WITHOUT TICKETS IN SUPER FAST EXPRESS TOO AND TTR WAS NOT AVAILANBLE TO CHECK THOSE PASSENGERS.I KNOW, MY COMPLAINT WILL NOT HAVE ANY IMPACT AND WILL BE IGNORED BUT NOW I HAVE A SATISFACTION THAT I HAVE TOLD WHAT I WANTED TO TELL.
