        Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation Ltd. Internet Ticketing Services Internet Ticketing, State Entry Road, IRCA Building, New Delhi-110055 All Authorised Office Bearers, Dear sir, I have one IRCTC Account in the name of myself Abhimanyu Padhi user name kkpl2010 for booking of on line train tickets. I have booked one ticket with journey date12.01.2014 from BAM to BLS in Train No 02551 in 2 Tire AC with PNR No [protected] in the name of S K Padhi. my brother and his wife Kalyani Padhi and one ticket with journey date on 14.01.2014 from SHM to BAM in Train No 22853 in 2 Tire AC with PNR No [protected] in the name of S K Padhi. my brother. Now due to certain change of his programme I wanted to cancel both the tickets on 10.01.2014 and while I found the IRCTC account is deactivated without notice to me and hence I could not cancel the tickets. Previously the same type of situation happened with the account of my brother S K Padhi with Account user name kkpl 2009 and there also we immediately intimated to IRCTC officials by mail and phone which they ignored and we lost the amount. The account is also not activated till date. Please act suitably to cancel the tickets and get the full amount as per rule credited back to my nominated Bank Account. Also advice how to get my account reactivated to book my further journey tickets. Request your good self to act fast as the ticket cancellation period is remains very less. Yours faith fully, Abhimanyu Padhi.

          What the [censored] is irctc.co.in site. So much angry on it. what about the middle/lower class people if they want to go urgently some places in india. We can not afford flight ticket. So only option left is indian railways. But what a bluddy [censored]ing site u people made. Can not book a single tatkal ticket. Better to increase the railways government will earn more rather than making us trouble. Strongly disappointed.

However a SMS from LM-IRCTCi was received on 25.12.2013 wherein it was confirmed that only first two tickets were confirmed i.e Passenger 1-B1-15, Passenger 2-B1- 16. The status of the Passenger 3 after the preparation of Chart was WL-34.

                            Hi, I am very embrassed whenever I book a ticket in irctc, from past few bookings, i observed that seat allocation is provided on the choice we choose, and even its not at all reflecting the best seat allotment depending on age. My mother is of 59 years from last thre bookings made on irctc, she only got Upper berth, and thre are times she hasnt travelled because of this seat allocation. Regards Sudhakar

                              I got my train ticker booked in train 12954, AG KRANTI RAJDHANI dt. 25/12/2013. My PNR No. was[protected]. I was continuously checking the status of my ticket by SMS to 139. At about 2.10 p.m., I received a reply from 139 showing status as W/L 1 & 2. At 2.45 p.m. it was RAC 29 & 30 but again at 3.18 p.m. the status got changed to W/L 4 & 5. It was shocking, how a RAC ticket be converted to W/L again. It was very urgent for us to reach Mumbai on 26/12/2013 as we have to attend a training programme. If something happens at the time chart preparation, as i have been told that at the time chart preparation people get their tickets confirmed by giving bribes & using quotas, why we should suffer because of negligence or greed of others. Please let me know how & why my ticket status changed from RAC to again W/L. Jagriti Sharma mob. no. [protected]

                                I filed a TDR on 3rd Sept under "Train Running Late for more than 3 hours and passengers not travelled" and till date I haven't received any communication or refund on this. When I checked the status online, the TDR status has been changed to Regreted. When I try to get the reason I always receive the "Communication Failure Error". This error is only coming for this particular TDR, all other TDRs are showing me the complete details. Below are the details: TDR No: [protected] PNR No: [protected] Date Of Filling: 3rd Sept 2013

                                Shall I consider that since this is a govt department I will never ever get my refund back?

                                  Hi, I had booked my train ticket with PNR No.[protected] Dated: 21st Dec 2013; Train no. 22405..Garib Rath from Vindhyachal (BDL) to Anand Vihar (ANVT). The train was delayed for more than 10 hrs and i cancelled the ticket. The entire amount was deducted even when the clause is that if train is delayed by more than 3 hrs, entire amount would be refunded. I approached irctc and they said pls send the screen shots mentioning the details of delayed train. I sent them the details and was assigned ticket id:3320584. Later was told that it was not tagged so no refund.ticket id:3327151 The fault is with Indian Railways, if they delayed in tagging then why dd they show train late. Finally the train was late by more than 20 hrs. Request you to pls help in getting the refund of Rs.1850/- Regards Ranjeet Singh Makkar [protected]; [protected]@yahoo.com

Kindly please provide the necessary information regarding this and process the Refund amount ASAP. Also, i have been writing to IRCTC customer care from last 10 days regarding the non receipt of refund money but customer care unit is only saying that it is just a platform of ticket booking and it has no jurisdiction over the refund/claims, I hereby sincerely request that please do the needful so that i could get my refund amount as early as possible. Thanks and regards Devendra
