Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] Complaints & Reviews

Dear sir,

This is Satheesh. I planned a travel from Chennai to Nagpur for my personnel work and i booked my Tatkal ticket through IRCTC in Grand Trunk (GT) express with the PNR no [protected] on 16th October 2011.

Due to Telangana issue, the train was diverted and i cant able to travel on that train.

So, i booked TDR (Travelling Deposit Receipt) with Transaction ID [protected] in the IRCTC official website on 16th October 2011(As per the rule, after the departure of the train, we may permit to file TDR) and i got a message that my money(Rs. 465) will reimburse within 90days from the entry of TDR. But even it crosses 100days, i cant get my money back.

So, i tried to call the IRCTC customer care number (CHENNAI). They didn't even attending my call. I tried for a minimum of 30 times.

So, i kindly request you to reimburse my money as soon as possible.

For your reference, i kindly attach my TDR result as on today as the JPEG file..

Sir,

I have purchased a reservation ticket online on IRCTC. But due to Telanagana agitation train was cancelled. So, I filed a TDR for the refund. However, only half the amount was refunded. I have called the IRCTC customer care multiple times and they are giving me different telephone number each time I called them. Nobody answer the calls on those numbers. In case even if they answer also they are again asking me contact customer care. But the other half of the amount is not being paid by IRCTC.

Hi,

Since today (24.01.2012) morning I am trying to book e-ticket, every time I am getting the message as Server timeout.

I believe IRCTC has to upgrade their server speed. Especially on weekends and when there are public holidays appearing either on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday or Friday IRCTC server will always be busy and people face lot of problem while booking the e-ticket.

Many a times it so happens that the amount is debit from the account and e-ticket is not booked.

Hence to avoid the problems, I hope IRCTC will take the above mentioned matter as serious and will do the needful.

Regards.
Fahiem

Since my account has been locked out ,please cancel my ticket

Dear Sir,

I have booked a Tatkal Ticket on 22nd Nov 2011 from NDLS to PNBE.
The Train was late around 6 hours which is not suitable for us so we have spoken to IRCTC customer care they suggested if journey is not comfortable in this case you just file TDR, you will get your full refund. I did so. But the thing is that why should they take more than 3 months in refunding amount.
Anyway I am posting my details i expect I will return my money as soon as possible because I have need my money urgently.

Dear Sir,

I booked my ticket from Bhubaneswar(BBS) to Mumbai on 8 January 2012 in 2 tier AC two months prior to the journey. I was alloted seat no. 17 in A1. On the journey date, only 1 hour before the departure I received a message on my mobile that my seat number has changed to A1 -57. However only after the arrival of the train in BBS I found that there was no ac 2 compartment in the train and coach A1 was changed to ac 3 tier. The ticket checker has no explanation for the same and he ensured that proper refund will be provided before the end of the journey, which I have not received yet. The details of my journey are as follows
Passenger name: Niharika Singh
PNR Number: [protected]
Ticket type: e ticket
Date Of Journey: 08/1/2012
Total: Rs 1858.00
Train No and name: 11020 , Konark Express


First of the all it was irresponsible on the part to railways not to give any prior information on the matter. Also the attached compartment A1 was dirty and old compared to the other ac 3 compartments in the train. Kindly look into the matter and ensure that proper explanation and refund is provided

Thank you
Niharika Singh

Dear Sir/Ma'am,

With Reference to the following details, I'd filed a TDR as the train was diverted and was not coming to the boarding station ie Secunderabad, due to the Telangana Issue & Rail Roko Agitation. The reason stated on irctc for non refund is that the reservation is from tatkal quota. Whether the ticket be through Tatkal or General Quota but how could I board the train when its not coming to the boarding station. I had an urgent interview scheduled on that day and was suppose to leave. Therefore, I got the reservation through tatkal quota. Is there any fault of passengers that the train didn't reach the boarding station.
I have mailed twice at [protected]@irctc.co.in and have also been trying the phone number but no reply.

It will be very grateful of you to please look into the matter and consider the request as its a genuine case of not boarding due to train diversion because of Telangana Issue and Rail Roko Agitation.

The details are as follows :

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I had cancelled train ticket of PNR No: [protected] on 28 Oct. 2011. As my salary account in CITI Bank was closed by which i booked this ticket, i informed IRCTC by mail to [protected]@irctc.co.in, [protected]@irctc.co.in about this on same date of cancellation. I also mentioned the new account details in which money should be refunded. I got complaint refrence number from IRCTC 2000714. Again i called customer care and got another refrence number: 90207. After all this also after nearby 2 months i didn't get money refund.

I request you to look into this matter and take appropriate action.

Thanks & Regards
