          Hello
          My 2 transaction refunds is pending between sbi bank and irctc.
          On calling customer care no.
          They are blaming each other for my loss. Sbi blame google pay, irctc.
          Google pay blame irctc, sbi
          Sbi blame google pay and irctc

          On going sbi bank, they also don't do the job properly, or you can say they do job of customer according to there account balance.

          Either your service need some talented employees or more cash or may be it need to blame each other like disgusting politics.

            Hi, today pantry food in charminar Express is nonsense and charging too much. As per the quality it's Rs. 10 food charging at Rs. 80 veg biriyani. Biriyani has no taste and the curry is nonsense. Pathetic food I experienced.
            Hello, I have forgotten my user id and password, so kindly resolve my issue towards the irctc account. I want to register a new one so please delete the old account of mine.

            Thanking you

                    Hi team,
                    I am traveling with my sibling to saharanpur in dehradun shatabadi that is from delhi in c5 coach on seat number 18.
                    I asked for non veg food and there was a strand of hair in that omelette. This is the second time i am facing this issue so i thought i should complain this time.
                    You are charging a good amount and still we get such unhygienic food.
                    This is really unacceptable.
                    Chefs should wear gloves and caps.
                    Also, ingredients should be clean and of good quality.
                    I hope you will take a strict action to avoid such instances.

                      Dear sir,
                      I have been following for my refund since nov'19 with irctc customer care department. Every time they ask me to send a reminder mail and tell that it will be refunded in 5 to 7 working days. But nothing is happening. When contacted to customer care they transfer the call to their false managers who do not have any knowledge how to deal with customers and they either put on hold or disconnect the call.
                      Pls find the ticket no. And reminders sent.
                      - 5493053

                      - 5795612

                      Today when contacted they asked me again to send the reminder. I am really pissed off.
                      The amount to be refunded is : rs. 4985 & rs. 2240

                      I will share you my pnr no. And other details once i hear from you based on ticket id assigned.
                      Pls help me in getting my refund back.

                          Sir, Iam Prashanth, I made payment through Paytm UPI for recharging my R-wallet. Money got deducted from my bank account but didn't credited into my R-wallet. I request you to make revert my money to my respective bank account or make credited into R-wallet. Right from the implementation o[censored]TS Iam using this. I didn't faced this kind of issue till now. It seems like I shouldn't dare to use this UTS if anything goes wrong. Moreover there is no right platform to raise a question and make it solve. To my bad, even SCR counter ticketing authorities also not aware to resolve this issues.

                            Hi, I had filed TDR online on 25th December. My train was late by more than 5 hours.
                            Status shown on IRCTC website is EDR updated.
                            But, when I go to refunds.indianrail.gov.in, I get the message "No refund case detail found"
                            It's been more than 15 days still no refund has been processed.

                              Hi myself kanika singh
                              On 7th jan 2020 i was booking ticket from irctc website. I got charged 5 times but irctc refunded only 2 times. As per my card transaction history amount got charged 5 times. I called up customer service she said only one more time they refund rest they will not. Why they have made such website if they cannot refund its a fraud website.
                              Below are the transactions. Hi team please help me in getting my refund back i got charged too much 5 times.

                              20 not booked not received refund

                                I am using irctc site for booking tickets more than 10 years now. Recently they disabled my account for no reason and asked me to send the request mail from my old mail id at the time of registration. It was my very old yahoo mail id. Somehow i managed to recover my yahoo mail id and sent the mail. This time they are asking for my old address (At the time of registration) and the address proof for that. I almost shifted two or three houses in the last 15 years and said that i have no address proof of my old addresses and i have all adhar, passport address proof of my current address. It is real torture.

                                        Hello team,

                                        The refund status shows "refunded", but never received any refunds. I have two transactions waiting to be refunded.

                                        Refund id: [protected]

                                        Total refund amount: 355

                                        I'm still waiting for the refund. Please ensure this is processed as soon as possible.

                                        Regards,

                                        Very very poor food. even roties are hard in sides. Too much salt, half cooked food. At last the boys are coming to collect tips as usual.
