            Dear Sir, I filed a TDR on 27th December (Reference No for this is :[protected], PNR Number [protected]). On contacting the irctc, I was informed that the railways have rejected my case on the ground that their record says 'Passenger travelled" I already conveyed that on the same day and in same train, I traveled along with 4 other passengers in 3AC (PNR number [protected]) I have been seeking for an answers since then, but no action has been taken so far. Please do the needful. Thanks Vishal

                This is regarding the Train no : 12737 (Gowtami Super fast Express). Train is always running delay in reaching destinations especially for reaching Secunderabad. Even it is a Super Fast Express everytime train making delay almost like 1 hour. I use to take this train for travelling to hyderabad and faced same problem everytime and today as well. Please give train preference as SUPER FAST Express or stop collecting Super fast charges of Rs. 30 on tickets. I hope this problem will resolve in future.

                    Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

                    I tried to book a ticket for travail by train no 12164 Chennai exp from MS to GTL by 1A class on 29/3/15 yesterday (21/3/15). Twice I tried but on both occasions I did not get the ticket but only a message that 'transaction not completed due to error'. Nut in both occasions the amount of Rs1162.47 has been collected as confirmed by SBI net services through which the amount was paid and the transaction reference read as IGOOTPDHW5 dated 21/3/15 at 08:26:09 hrs and ref no IGOOTPDCQ1 dated 21/3/15 at 08:23:23 hrs This is a bad experience making me wonder if this is a ploy to get more money from customers. Please ensure the amount of Rs2324.94 is refunded and such errors do not take place Regards Herbert

                        Address: Ernakulam, Kerala

                        Respected Sir/Madam - I have booked two tickets for my sister and family for travel from Aluva to Kannur and back to Aluva on March 21st, 2015. The travel date is March 22, 2015 and the ticket was tatkal booking. I was booking ticket from Aluva to Kannur, from bank transaction page to irctc page was taking a long time and finally it failed and I was logged off. Again I started from scratch and made payment and booked the tickets (PNR #[protected] – Train no 16305). I was expecting the first failed transaction amount to credit back to my account in few days as this was usual scenario with tatkal. But first booking booked a ticket have same details (PNR #[protected] - Train no 16305). Same issue happened with return ticket also (PNR #[protected] & [protected] – Train no 16348). I realized this double booking only when my sister boarded train today morning and two seats were allocated for them. I know as it is tatkal ticket I won’t get a refund, but still I have cancelled a transaction (PNR #[protected] – Train no 16348) so that someone else in waiting list will be benefitted. I am very disappointed with the system. Irctc system should not allow a second transaction with same passenger name, same train number, same date and over all same proof ID. It is system fault. You need to take some action to include a validation to see if duplication is happening. Request you to take some action on this so this scenario does not happen again so people don’t waste money and someone won’t lose chance. Expecting a quick action. Please let me know for any concerns. Thanks, Lipi Prasannan

                          Hi,

                          This is pertaining to three transactions which has happen today (14/4/2017) without ticket booking.I have checked with the credit card(no [protected]) bank (HDFC) and they told it's been debited by IRCTC at IRCTC11779 CODE. Therefore, my question is, how the transaction will happen without booking the ticket.

                          Please reply ASAP in detail.

                          Thanks

                              Dear Sir/Mam, I am trying to book Tatkal tickets from my personal IRCTC ID, but error is coming which says "You are Permitted only 2 transactions between 8 AM to 10 AM per IP address/user ID" Surprisingly the error statement is completely wrong as i have not booked 2 tickets between 8 to 10 even not within a week. I was tried to get help from their customer care, they even not able to tell any satisfactory ans. Regards, Ravi

                                The shops at TDPR railway station sell the products almost 3 rupees above MRP. I complained to station master. He even ignores me and supporting the crime. Eg. The railneer water bottle is rs.18 whereas its MRP is 15 rupees only. Please take necessary action to stop this.

                                  I have booked e-ticket through IRCTC from Khurda Road JN (KUR) to New Jalpaiguri (NJP) on 12th Aug, 2014. The Transaction ID is [protected] and the boarding date was 12th Oct, 2014. Due to cyclone “Hud Hud” the train got diverted without touching the Boarding station (Bhubaneswar). I have filed TDR for the same on 11th Oct, 2014. But I did not get the train fare refunded to my account yet. It’s already been more than 6 (six) months delayed.
                                  I would request you to process the TDR file as soon as possible.

                                    sir,
                                    its really a bad experience when travelling with sleeper classes these days. specially the shemale interruption are now gone very frequent. their frequent interruption and vulgar approach is making problem for people.Also they don't go without taking money this is again causing problem for middle class youths, for ex if a person is going from delhi to chennai and the fare is 1000 then the total money you have to pay these shemales at different places in routes is around 500. i request you to please ban shemales from entering railway sleeper coaches so then people can travel with peace and comfortable.
