I booked a ticket and paid for it using upi. Money was deducted from my bank account. However, immediately after the money was deducted, the website logged me out. On logging in, the status is "pending from bank end". After some searching on the internet, i came to know that many people had faced similar issues. The money is not refunded and the ticket is not confirmed.

          I have filed a tdr with below details, but it has been rejected saying the party has travelled.

          Although the passengers havent travelled. Also the train was more than 3 hours late and that is the reason we have filed a tdr and did not travel. Please look into the tdr again and provide the refund

                I have tried booking ticket of 12428/ANVT REWA of 20th March 2020 through BHIM UPI via Paytm but payment got deducted but still it's showing pending from bank end as status which not convey clear information of ticket is going to be booked or refund happen.

                I can't look for another option due to this and this kind of issue shouldn't take more than 2 hrs or SLA for this issue should not be more than 2 hrs.

                This kind of service is pathetic as we aren't sure of stuck payment.

                    This is with regards to my SBI Credit card payment, I had a failed transaction while booking IRCTC Ticket on the 11th of January 2019.

                    This was reported with SBI Cards in the month of January 2019 with following complaint no. C-1433A2486231 and R-1433A2837438 and the same issue was also raised with the IRCTC call center.

                    But till date no action is been taken and they are being charging me late payment fee to my credit card till date.

                    They are stating that payment has been withheld by IRCTC and amount is debited from credit card.

                    I need the failed transaction details from a user IRCTC user ID : vikaskankariya. Along with a confirmation that refund is initiated with the transaction number.

                    The statement and the transaction details is attached for Rs. 1904 & Rs. 1904. Total Rs.3808.

                          I have attempted 5 times to book my tickets in railway from shimoga to bangalore and your irctc website says that the tickets not booked inspite of payment received by the irctc. It is nothing but a case fit for sec 420 of ipc (Cheating). When the amount has been credited to irctc then how could you deny to provide the services to passengers. It is nothing but a fraud and cheat to the passengers. I just not claiming the amount, i need the justice and i will attain it through the competant jurisdiction of law.

                            Kindly have a look on this complaint and do the necessary steps to credit back the amount deducted from me.

                            In website it says: "since your ticket has not been booked, the amount deducted from your account/card/wallet etc, will be refunded back automatically in 3-4 working days."

                            Its been a month and no process has done.

                            Dear sir,
                            Irctc has not refund my partially booked tickets with booking txn ID [protected] and refund seq ID [protected]/[protected].
                            despite of many mails and calls made no one is responding and no money has been refund so far.
                            out of 3 tickets booked only one ticket amount was returned.

                            refund not credited into my account (error while booking : pending from bank end) - Comment #3659449 - Image #0

                                    I would like to complaint about the constant honking by the trains in the residential area at all times of the day & night.

                                    We live in jalahalli (Also refered as hmt watch factory road. The following apartments are facing the problem;
                                    Tata aquila heights
                                    Brigade courtyard
                                    Prestige kensington
                                    Nacen
                                    It is very bad during weekends & holiday season.

                                    I would be of great help if operators are considerate towards people living close to the railway tracks.

                                    Thanks

                                        I booked a train ticket in 17252 (GNT KCG express) on 06/03/2020.
                                        However, it shows "pending from bank end" till now. I have used BHIM UPI wallet to pay and payment was successful TODAY. Status is not still clear, so i can not book another ticket.
