I am Mr Banajit Deka. I booked a flight ticket from Dibrugarh city to Mumbai, on 5th January. At the time of booking while I proceed for payment of the ticket, it showed that "oops connection failure, book another flight". As the total amount Rs. 26, 553 was already deducted form my account. So wrote a mail to IRCTC to refund my full amount, as the ticket was not booked by that time. And I booked the flight ticket by using another agent and I paid them also. But after 3-4 hours when I checked for any reply from IRCTC through email, I got e-ticket from IRCTC for Dibrugarh to Mumbai journey. They ignored my intimation mail and booked the flight ticket. Ultimately I requested for cancellation of the IRCTC e-ticket. On 7th january I got refund of only Rs 16, 103 instead of Rs. 26, 553. I am surprised how IRCTC can deduct Rs 10, 450 as for cancellation charge for cancelling one round trip ticket. The details of the ticket given below Sr.No. Name Type Age Ticket No Cancel Ref. No. Refund Amt Status 1 Mr BANAJIT DEKA Adult [protected] [protected] In Process Can/Mod I demand full refund of the ticket amount, as the mistake was done by IRCTC. Do I need to wait for 3-4 for receiving one flight ticket, that too in uncertainty situation. What is the meaning of "oops connection failure, book another flight".

Sir, This is to report that the IRCTC is not providing the full menu with Tea in trains. In that where as Rs10 are being charged from the passengers for a cup of tea but the biscuits are invariably not provided which is part of the menu. Also the quantity of tea is 75% full. I travelled on 26th Dec by AC 3tier in Alla Hazrat-Bhuj Express and returned on 02Jan15. It is requested that vigilance check on tea bearers is carried out and the services are improved. col alok goel [protected]

Hi Sir, I was unable to book premium tatkal tickets this morning, as it always shows not available. I booked a premium ticket comfortably last month. I checked for multiple trains, but everywhere it shows not available. May I know the reason why there are no tickets available on premium tatkal and that on such a festival season like Sankranti? It is really urgent. It would be great if you can get it resoved ASAP so that I can book premium tatkal tickets soon. My preferred train - 12511 Rapti Sagar express BPQ to QLN

I've tried to book tatkal ticket from Pune to Ahmedabad thorough IRCTC website in Ajmer express on[protected] at 9:50 AM. The train 16210/Ajmer express starts from Mysore on 8-01 and arrival to Pune on 9-01. When I've checked for tatkal ticket on 7-01 at 9:50 (before 1 day at 10 AM of actual departure), the tatkal status was "REGREAT/CKWL1#" which is not possible because as per government rule tatkal reservation is open before 1 day at 10 AM. Could you someone please let me explain how is it possible when before 1 day at 10 AM (before 1 day at 10 AM of actual departure) tatkal status was "REGREAT/CKWL1#"?

Hi, I had filled a TDR for 2 tickets(PNR no: [protected] and [protected]). The reason for filing TDR was "Train Late More Than Three Hours and Passenger Not Travelled". I had filled the TDR well before the train actual departure from the boarding station(Train departed more than 12 hrs late from the source station itself). I got the refund but only 50% which is not as per the refund rules. I should have been refunded the 100% amount. Please refund the full amount. Thanks, Vishal Agarwal

Dear Sir, I was travelling from bangalore to nagpur with Rajdhani Exxpress/22693 dated 06th Dec2014. That was my worst night with Indian Railways. While checking ticket T.C Mr. Chandpasha asked me to show original ID proof indicated on e-ticket unfortunatily I missed that after booking my ticket. I shown him the scanned copy, xerox copy, original pan card, original ration card and original passport all were having same details as that of details given while booking the ticket. First T.C tried to collect bribe when I refused strongly, he behaved rashly with abusing words and asked me to pay a fine Rs.5200/-. I told if its must I ll pay it afterwards since I was not having that much amount. He again became rash, took my bed and kept my adhar card with him only for the whole night. Finally with help of escorts he made me scare, forced me to take amount from ATM and collected Rs5200/-. I requested T.C for complaint book available in train but he didn provide me. I have been charged without any valid reason. I demand my money should be back to me since I am the one for ticket has been booked and I was only travelling on that day. I even launched complaint in Nagpur station but I have not yet recieved any feedback. This was my worst experience with Indian railways.

1. I had booked two tickets (2AC and 3AC) for my family on Train No. & Name 14056 / BRAHMAPUTRA MAIL (Late night train) 2. The 2AC ticket was waitlisted so I booked the 3AC ticket which was confirmed. 3. On 31st October 2014 when I checked the 2AC ticket status it was showing waitlisted. I was unable to cancel the ticket online, so I spoke to IRCTC Chennai and Delhi Customer care they said that I would receive the full refund for my 2AC because my ticket is WL. I was not aware of the ticket getting confirmed nor I did not receive any sort of confirmation from IRCTC through email or sms, also the train was in the late night, it was not possible to check the status online… 4. I was under the impression that my 2AC ticket amount is refunded, since I did not receive the refund I called the IRCTC customer service to find out the status, they said that my ticket got confirmed at the time of departure, now the amount will not be refunded. I sent out several email to [protected]@irctc.co.in to refund my money but till date my 2AC ticket amount is not refunded…. …. No response from IRCTC… 5. Finally after no response from IRCTC I am taking help from Consumer Forum… 6. I would request you to HELP me in getting my refund for my 2AC ticket . …It is unfair I am a regular traveller and IRCTC has charged me twice i.e. for 2AC and 3AC for one train.
