Cancellation ID : [protected] Registration no : DNR050714W05419 Yesterday TDR status changes to TDR Repudiate. And no reason was given for repudiate. My concern is, when i had not given seat, so why they are charging for the same. They should refund the money. Request you to please look into issue, as it is a serious concern.

I had booked my ticket on 12 July 2014 for the journey on 19 July 2014 from Jodhpur to Ahemdabad for giving the competition exam of SBI clerk was held on 20 July 2014 at 1:00pm in Indus University. I still have a call letter of that exam. But when I reached railway station and wanted to go to my reserved seat, I shocked there is no seat which I reserved by IRCTC.My seat was allocated to someone else that person get reservation on that morning and I reserved that seat 7 day before than also that seat is allocated to someone else.I and my husband was totally sad and could not understand that what should be done next for this problem. Then I go to inquiry room and explained my problem in front of railway staff(clerk). But they also not give me a answer which satisfy me. They only told me that the ticket is cancelled by you. But that was so not true. I told about the proof but they don`t have any proof of cancellation of ticket.They also told me that this can't be happen and this is the case of this type they ever never faced Also my money is not refund to me. When I talk to TTC they told me that your ticket is stolen by cyber thief before data reach to the server that is why no body have a record I have all the proof of that reservation. Then I drop from the station. I went with my own vechicle which charged high I was in hurry and also don`t have any option except to hire that vechicle. I gave you a notice in form of this complaint and you have to sort out my problem.You have to give my whole travelling charge (including claim money)otherwise, I knock the door of consumer court against IRCTC.

2. PNR [protected] Transaction id [protected] Train No-22891 DOJ-9/8/2014.
I talked with IRCTC but they are telling you did not cancelled the ticket and now time is over for cancellation so u can not get refund.
I did not understand when train getting cancelled from Railway then why i cancelled my ticked it should be railways/irctc duty to refund the money from there side. When train got cancelled we have to incurred lots of problem to get our journey done and they are giving only 72 hrs to cancelled our tickets.

Kindly do the needful.

Thanking you

Hello Sir/Madam, This is with regards to my recent journey to nagapatnam (tamilnadu) via Nagore express. We boarded the train from Chennai station and the journey was good and pleasant, however when we reached Nagapatnam station (where we were supposed to get down), my Mom had a terrible fall from the steps while alighting as the steps were muddy and slippery due to rains and her leg was stuck between the gap of the train, with great difficulty and help from other fellow passengers we managed to pull her leg out from the gap, however she injured her feet badly, later when i observed i did notice the steps are very small and not at all safe in fact for senior citizens or anybody to alight and board the train. i know this is something which cant be changed immediately but at least there can something be done for the safety and well being of the passengers. Thanks

Hi, I am unable to book ticket from my office PC. I am getting error message "You are permitted only 2 ARP Tickets between 08:00 AM to 10:00 AM per IP Address". Though I have not even booked single ticket. Is it something to block the common people to book the ticket? What's the use of this website i[censored]nable to book ticket. It's just benefiting the agent. This was not something committed by rail minister.

Sir,

I booked the ticket from Vijayawada (BZA) to Tiruvannamalai (TNM) on 8th July 2014. Today is 25th August 2014. The amount has not yet credited into my account. Please look into the matter

I Sandeep Kumar Sahoo would like to state that, I was travelled from NDLS to BBS vide Train no - 12282 PNR - [protected], S1, 31 on 14th Aug 2014 along with the other passengers. - Initially Pantry person has provided the unhealthy foods to the passengers. (Dead insects inside the food, expiry Sause along with the snacks. - While we asked the pantry boy for the same, he ignored and did not turned around . - Then while at 1.15 P.M near by cuttack railway station we asked for the water bottle as the train was late running by more than 2 hours but the pantry person did not provided the same. - Therefore we (me and co-passengers) went to the Pantry car to lodge the complain, however when reached the Pantry they didnot open the door first. On insisting they open the door when we entered, they all surrounded under the instance of Pantry manger (Mr. Shakti Prasad Nanda ) who misbehaved us in slang language with loud voice and refused to give log book with the statement to whatever you like, I will not give. When we asked why not to give as water bottle is due as the train is running late by more than 2 hrs, he has beaten on one co-passenger ( Mr Rohit) and told him to get out from the Pantry. This incident has happened in front of the TT Mr. Mohanty and Mr.Das who was in charged of the same train. We have lodged the complain at I.I.C, R.P.F, BBSR for the same. Request you to please take up this matter with the concern agency and remove him from the Catering service from Indian Railway. This will really very big issue as they are not giving the ultimate service to the rail passenger. Thanks & regards Sandeep Kumar Sahoo Mob : +91 [protected]

Hello Sir/Madam, My user id is "aennambi" I've booked a ticket for the date of journey on[protected] and another ticket on[protected] as detailed below. [protected]-5232343 TPJ-MS ROCKFORT EXPRESS [protected]-5368932 TPJ-MS ROCKFORT EXPRESS Both the tickets were cancelled without our knowledge and we came to know from the SMS only. We are aware that we haven't disclosed our password or user-id to anyone. This leads to a great mental agony. We wish to know the source of cancellation i.e., IP address from where the action took place and if any. Please do the needful.

Waiting since 12:45 hrs. on 24th AUGUST 2014, at Surat Railway station to catch Train No. 19064 JSM BDTS EXP. There is no proper information or Board display of Train No., Train arrival/departure timing of the said train at the surat station and also there is even no announcement of the train arrival. Also enquiry counter persons, not responded properly and not given correct information about the train arrival. But on enquiring with some friends in Mumbai to check the train running status in Internet, I got the information that the train has already departed from Surat and now it is running in between Umbergaon-BORIVILI and reaching shortly BORIIVILI. Because of the negligence of Rail Administration at Surat Railway Station, I missed my train. As it is very urgent for me to reach Mumbai before 19:00 hrs today, I have been put in trouble by Rail Administration department of surat railway station. What shall I do now? Request you to kindly take proper action so that in future no person should be troubled/miss the train at Surat.

Hello Sir, I have booked the ticket of status PQWL/135 . Will it conform ??? If it will not conform then why you are allowing to book the ticket above 50/100 WL . I can see most of the ticket allowed for above 250 WL . Will all 250 wl ticket will conform ??? If we cancel you will charge 30 rupee per person not for ticket . this is again loss for us . I traveled on 14-Aug-2014, train no 12863, Its SL coche but in train i can see it look like General buggie. I didnt get space to stand or walk . No TT are saying nothing . I think they might be taken bribe . Scord came they also not acting anything . The Sleeper coche is like General buggie . Its a profit to TT not to ITCTC . IRCTC will increase the fares but no facility to travelers .. We will wait until last and it will not conform .. Thanks Patnaik
