I have booked tickets under Tatkal scheme for journey from Agra to Delhi in Swarna jayanti express on[protected] as the scheduled time is to arrive at agra statiion is 14.05 on[protected] but the same has been arrived at around 3.00 am on[protected] and i filed TDR on[protected] with the reason that train has been delayed for more than 3 hours. On may 21st I received a mail from [protected]@irctc.co.in that refund has been refused on the ground that there is no delay in train timings. On that day we waited in the agra station for more than 6 hours for the train as there were no trains to delhi from agra as some thing has happened all the trains were delay on that particular day. Is there any remedy to prove that train was actually delay and can get back my refund. Regards Subrahmanyam PL

Place: Chennai Central This incident was happened on 20.05.2014, 4 am. I bought some snacks and cool drinks from the IRCTC stall located at Platform No. 11 at Chennai Central Railway Station (Stall No 7). The shop-keeper has charged extra 5 rupees on each item. When I asked why you are charging extra than MRP, he simply replied "its night service." Is there any solution, whether IRCTC will take action against the stall keepers. This is not only in that particular stall, the same condition was throughout the whole station. If necessary action will not taken, I will make this as a issue on social websites such as facebook, twitter and etc.

Hi To All, Last week I have traveled to my Native (Nagercoil) through 'Anandhapuri Express".Really very much disappointed with the service of Southern railway...My opposite berth aged person was bought a "parotta' from a authorized food sellers of southern Railway.It was totally dried and the side dish was like a salid..If we are putting this food item to dog, definitely it never eat it and the cost is also very high...TTR is not taking care of it, if we are complaining means they will give some money to that TTR.So he wont react... Government organizations are not giving any care to public.one day, the government officials also will get suffered by these type bad service..definitely, that time they will get angry...Really funny peoples...

I had purchased a ticket from Nellayi Railway Station to Guruvayur at 0715 hrs. on 8-5-2014. The train was 1 hour late and subsequently cancelled around 08.30 hours. Again 9'o clock passenger to Trichur was also cancelled by the Railway authorities. When I approached for refund of ticket fare, counter staff refused to give back the money. According to them they have clear instructions from the higher authorities not to refund. I shall now request you to kindly arrange a refund of Rs.10/- at my residential address -as below.

I have logged in IRCTC.CO.IN website on[protected] time 10.00 am for the booking of Tatkal Railway Ticket. I have faced lots of problem while booking my ticket, (1) The site is too much slow (2) The site shows its business and process the ticket. (3) There is no proper, correct and exact information of seats available provided while booking the tatkal ticket. (4) When tatkal ticket is available in the train the sites uses to show the availability but makes the server too slow that while processing the payment section one gets trapped. (5) As the transaction could not be completed, ticket is not booked. On the other hand money is deducted from the account and transferred to IRCTC and IRCTC displays a result transaction settlement request. Money is being with IRCTC for 2-10 days (6) Once if ticket is not booked again I have to made a booking for tatkal ticket during that time the ticket comes to the position of waiting list. On the above problem I want to say that I got mentally hashed by the IRCTC site I feel like I have been cheated while making the transaction as the money got deducted (i.e Rs.3397 Transaction ID : [protected]) and I am with empty hand, My money will be with IRCTC for several days. I was scarred to book another tatkal ticket as again the Transaction will be shown not completed and money will be deducted from my account. The site scared a lot. Many a Time Online Ticket use to not confirmed and Money stays with IRCTC for several days. Few day back my ticket was booked for[protected] ticket was in waiting list. Ticket not confirmed (Transaction ID : [protected], Amount Rs. 2617.47) is still with IRCTC.CO.IN for how many days it will be I dont know. I will kindly request Railway Board Members and the people to look in the issue of the Tatkal Ticket Booking through IRCTC.CO.IN which is cheating people. I have been cheated and mentally harassed with the service provided by the IRCTC which uses to charge we people with the IRCTC Service Charges# (Incl. of Service Tax) The Railway Board Members should take this matter seriously as this is the Government Railway for the people not to profit any individual. Tatkal itself mean an emergency so if I am being harassed in an emergency it may hamper the life style. Am uploading some images of the failed transaction and messages which is displayed by IRCTC.CO.IN It may be helpful

Hi, Without any proper reason my account is deactivated.That cause me so many trouble. please help me to and try to restore my ID . There is so many plan ticket with this ID and I need this ID for my future plan travel. My ID --vinocmc Please contact me on this mail [protected]@rediffmail.com

Very poor website in the world - only one IRCTC. IRCTC working under some agencies not under by central government. Its true. I[censored] say, this website slow is because of number o[censored]sers is high. Why the same is not happening in private users like Google/Yahoo.. Etc., If I have to book the tickets through agency, I am getting freely. If this is the thing, why u are keeping the website for customers. Please do the needful.

IRCTC provides a useless e-ticket booking interface which is slower than watching a banyan tree grow. There are thousands of technology companies in India any of which is capable of building a more than decent website. Yet they stick with whoever is doing their website currently and torture passengers. This just proves their utter contempt for their customers. Please ask them to have a tie up with a decent software company and provide a good website so that passengers can book a ticket without needing an hour and a half and lots of good luck. Any college student can make a website 10 times better than their current site.
