        I have booked a Tatkal ticket from NDLS to NGP for AP EXPRESS on 30th Jan, 2015 and Date of Journey was 31st Jan, 2015. For reason ' it was in waiting list so i cancelled the ticket and when i was cancelling the ticket only rs.35 should be charged out of rs.1720, there was a message from irctc stating that amount will be refunded but it is been 12 days but the amount has not refunded yet. So I request to you, please refund my EFT amount.

Sir please refund me my balance immediately. or generated my tickets. Also, while booking through Net banking, SBI online banking site is not being directed to.

                  Zeeshan,
                  Its fact and same happened with me. In such case we should get ticket and not refund.

I do not know what amount of money is spent for cleaning of these coaches, but surely I want know what action taken against the staff for this gross irresponsibility. Thanking you. Your"s Sincerely BHASHYAM MURALIDHAR

                        I'm travelling today i.e 19.04.2015 by train 19804 from Jammu Tawi. The AC compartment toilets were not cleaned at all from inside & has been brought to the station as it is. Its smelling so badly that I had to call somebody to get it cleaned. One of the patch on the wooden toilet door is also faulty & ripped off. Wonder what's happening at the yard before the coach is released for travel.

                        Really bad !!!

                            Hi, I had cancelled my ticket against PNR number [protected] for train number 12616 at 22.26 hrs on 17th January 2015. The train was running late by more than 7 hours whereas the scheduled departure was 23.25 hrs on 17th January. As per the railway cancellation rules, "Full refund is permissible if refund is obtained/online TDR filed before actual departure of the train if train in running more than 3 hours late". I filed the online TDR on 17th January at 22.26 hrs (attaching IRCTC snap shot) when the scheduled departure of the train was at 23.25 hours and actual departure was around 7 am the next day 18th January. I have received an email that I have been refunded Rs.515 whereas I am entitled to refund of the entire payment of Rs.1035. I request the refund of the remaining Rs.520. Thank you. Regards, Arivazhagan GD [protected]

                              Dear sir, I have booked a ticket in tatkal, after payments done by net banking the website stopped responding.I didnot get any message that ticket has been booked immediately. Since I need the ticket urgently I again booked the ticket with the same name, same ID, same date, same train. this time the transaction was successful. Now when i checked, found that the earlier ticked was also booked. I immediately cancelled one ticket. Due to the website response I lost the payments for which I am requesting them for a refund. I am asking for the refund as the website stopped responding . I am not asking for the tatkal refund as i also knew that tatkal ticket payments is not refundable. I am asking for the refund for wrong booked ticket. If one ticket already booked with all the same details the website should not book another ticket of same details, same name, age, ID proof, same train etc. If IRCTC is not refunding means a person can book as many ticket as he can, with only one id, one name, same age, same train. I hope a positive response Thanks and regards BR Khan

                                I have on 10.01.2015 booked through IRCTC Online two journey tickets each, from Chennai Central to Bhopal Junction for Journey on 02.03.2015 by TN Express vide PNR No. [protected] and Return Journey from Bhopal Junction to Chennai Central for Journey on 11.02.2015 by TN Express. Eventhough the tickets were booked in the morning well in advance say, 53 and 60days, I have been issued RLWListed tickets. I do not understand the logic of people booking well in advance on prescribed 60 days, how come tickets issued in the beginning of the days itself were "Waitlisted".? One has to wait till 4 hours before the journey time (after preparation of charts?) to get confirmation of seats/berths booked. It is giving the customer anxiety till the last moment. Can anyone in either IRCTC or RAILWAY board clarify this, to my satisfaction please?
