      The refund amount is not including the paid convenience fee plus gst. However itcts send mail that they are giving full refund. But irctc customer care mentioned that convenience fee is not refundable. The irctc should make everyone clear about the refund amount. Either the convienece fee is refundable or not refundable.

            I purchased indigo air ticket through my irctc account on 21.03.2020, but subsequently canceled the same on 22.03.2020 due to lockdown of the country. The ticket was from hyderabad to ranchi on 23.03.2020. The pnr no. Was dwrb5e and cancelation was done through indigo website. The present status shows complete and money returned to irctc. But till date the refund money rs. 3999/- is yet to received.
            I request to irctc kindly refund my air ticket cancelation money.

              Dear sir/madam,
              As per captioned, i had a train on 21/03/20 with confirm ticket (Pnr [protected]).
              But as per appeal of h'ble pm shri narendra modi, i decided to participate in the said "janta curfew" on 22 mar 20. Hence i decided to file tdr after chart preparation for full refund of my money.
              But i was unable to do so (I also read in business line that if anyone cancel or wants to cancel ticket from 21 march to 15 april, full refund will be given)..

              Please resolve my issue and refund my money as soon as possible.

              Regards,

                    Hello,
                    I am here to complain about the rendering services of irctc app, as I had booked a ticket on 16th March and it had got money deducted from google pay UPI and yet my ticket was not booked.
                    Its been 7 days and I havent got any refund on that.
                    Kindly look into this as the money was deducted from my account and the transaction failed after that as it showed session timed out and I was thrown outside the session after being charged the whole ticket amount.
                    I hereby request to be refunded my money back.
                    I will attach a screenshot of the data of the failed transaction.
                    Kindly look into that asap.

                    Thanks & Regards,
                    Amar.

                        Hi,

                        I have cancelled a ticket with pnr number :[protected]
                        I checked the current status
                        Which is still in waiting list (4 members rqwl4 to rqwl7)
                        So i have cancelled on 17 march
                        I have paid 1900 for the 4 tickets (475 each) while booking,

                        The railway e-ticket refund policy says when
                        We cancel waiting list ticket before 48 hours,
                        We will be charged rs 60 for each person
                        And for the confirmed ticket it will be rs 120 per person

                        As i have cancelled the ticket which was in waiting list i should have to get refund of 1660/-

                        (60 person and for 4 persons it will be 240/-
                        1900-240= 1660/-)

                        I have to get 1660/-,
                        But refund is initiated for rs1420/-

                        Refund the remaining amount.

                              Dear Sir,

                              I have booked railway retiring rooms for Rameswaram through online website vide the following references.

                              Sl No - Booking Ref. - PNR NO
                              1 - RMMRR1772598 - [protected]
                              2 - RMMRR1772580 - [protected]

                              Due to unforeseen circumstances, I had cancelled the reservations on 01.03.2020 and the refunds approved for Rs.456/- and Rs.171/- respectively on 02.03.2020 vide the shown IRCTC website status and the status are showing as "SETTLED". But till now (17.03.2020 at 06.15 pm) the refund amounts have not been credited to my account from which the payments have been made. Screen shots attached.

                              I have made several requests over customer helpline numbers and through emails towards expedite of refunds by sending the appropriate scanned copy of the account statement as proof of non credit of refunds. As there is no response from the customer help centre, I have escalated the issue to the concerned higher authority Mr. Harendra singh over his mobile number [protected] on 13.03.2020 and upon his request I have forwarded him the complaints made through email on the same date.

                              But till now even after the lapse of 15 days, the refund amounts have not been credited to my account. I regret to note about the uncaring attitude of the retiring room help line authorities and their higher officials towards their customers. Please expedite the refunds.

                              With warm regards

                                I request IRCTC department to look into the details above and issue the refund for the failed transaction along with the Interest amount of Rs.14, 995/-

                                What is the status of my compliant. I haven't received any response from your end except a call stating that IRCTC agreed that they have received a wrong payment against the failed booking tickets dated 14 Jan 2019. Why the amount is still not been refunded along with the Interest.

                                    Why cancellation charge is applied for tatkal waitlisted ticket where probability of confirmation is below 50% and user does a manual cancellation. As a consumer i have not utilized any service from the railway. Applying charge for confirmed ticket make sense that i have booked or blocked a seat, but when system itself has not alloted the seat and show probablity below 50%, then when user cancels, a charge is applied which is not ethical to apply.
