      Ref:- PNR: [protected]

      Dear Sir,

      With reference to the above PNR, I have booked a ticket from Ranchi to Dumka on 20/09/2023 with WL3, Train No.-18619.

      I have received a message from Indian Railway regarding cancellation of train just before 4 hours of departure (screenshot attached) (Time- 17:33). Actual departure time is 21:30 hrs. Chart was not prepared till time.

      After that I have done an alternate mode of travel for my journey.

      Now just 25 minutes before departure (Time- 21:06 hrs), I received message regarding chart preparation (Screenshot attached) and restoration of train No.- 18619 (screenshot attached).

      I was either unable to cancel my ticket or file TDR.

      You are requested to refund my amount regarding this issue.

          Address: Ajwa Road

          Dear Sir,

          I had filed an TDR for a ticket in which i and my wife were supposed to travel. Following are the details:
          Details of the Journey:
          TRAIN NUMBER : 22943
          PNR : [protected]
          TRANSACTION ID: [protected]
          DATE OF JOURNEY : 17 SEPTEMBER 2023
          BOARDING : VADODARA, TO : INDORE
          PASSENGER NAMES : PRANAY JOHARI, KARISHMA NAGAR

          The reason for raising the TDR is delayed departure of train from the boarding location. It was expected to depart on "17 Sept 2023" at "00:35" but it actually started in the morning near about "09:00 " which did not serve the purpose of our travelling and we did not travel.

          And as per the IRCTC TDR refund policy, If the train is running late by more than 3 hours and the passenger has not travelled, a TDR has to be filed before the actual departure of the train for availing full refund.

          We had filed TDR online before its actual departure and also got a letter signed from on duty TC for the same from the railway station.

          We have shared all the details in mail to "[protected]@irctc.co.in" but till date did not receive any update and refund for the tickets.

          Please help me to get my refund .

          Regards,
          Pranay

          We are not satisfied with the reply we have received. We have not travelled and the proof we have already submitted but still they are telling that we have travelled. We want our money back.

            I had booked a two-way ticket from IRCTC and while selecting my berth preference, I had opted for a lower berth. However, I was not allocated a lower berth and this has left me feeling quite disappointed. To add to my concerns, my mother is traveling with me and she is over 50 years old and has health issues. It would have been very helpful if IRCTC had given us the lower berth as per our preference. What is the point of choosing the berth, when the same cannot be entertained?

            It seems like booking a lower berth ticket from IRCTC is impossible.

                  I recently received a notification stating that my TDR filed against PNR Number [protected], for the train on 2nd October 2023, was repudiated due to an "Invalid TDR Timestamp: DELAY." However, I would like to clarify a few points regarding my TDR submission:

                  The train on 2nd October 2023 was delayed by approximately 10 hours, preventing me from travelling.

                          Dear IRCTC Customer Support,

                          I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to express my deep dissatisfaction and frustration regarding the recent ticket refund request I filed for PNR Number [protected]. Despite the train being delayed by a substantial five hours, my Ticket Deposit Receipt (TDR) was unjustly rejected.

                                  Dear Sir/Madam,

                                  I am writing to complain about the repudiation of my TDR for PNR [protected], dated 05-Aug-2023.

                                  I had booked a ticket in ixigo app from SMVB to PER on 05-Aug-2023, but the train got late from more than 3 hours. I had filed the TDR on the same day at 09:19 hrs. However, the status of my TDR is showing as "Case Repudiate" with the reason "NO EDR HAS BEEN FED AGAINST THE PARTICULAR PNR AS PARTY HAS TRAVELLED".

                                  I am unable to understand why my TDR has been repudiated. I did not travel on the train. and I attached the ticket of that, and another train travelled.

                                  I request you to kindly investigate this matter and process my TDR refund at the earliest. I have incurred a financial loss due to the repudiation of my TDR.

                                  PNR: [protected], Registration No.:[protected]. train No.: 12295 Date of Journey: 05-Aug-2023 Ticket Amount: 1020 TDR Filing Date: 05/08/2023 09:19 hrs. TDR Zone: EAST CENTRAL RAILWAY (EC)

                                  Thank you for your time and consideration.
