While booking tickets irctc website takes you to payment portal and then lets you know that if any of the conditions you had put are not met. This way money gets deducted from our account without booking any ticket. Then they say it might take up to seven says to refund. Sometimes we don't have money and can't book tickets until we get the refund. There is no way to book another ticket of the same or lesser amount against the money deducted from the account. This becomes crucial for economically weaker section of our society. Why can't they stop the process before the payment if conditions are not met. They use this money to earn interest, as it happens with thousands of the people everyday. Why can't they refund within hours of the payment, in todays technology it is not at all difficult.

      Dear sir/ madam
      I am ganesh kashe, riya travel authorised agent.

      The website is not sending mobile verification code on my mobile. And, therefore i am not able to log-in into the irctc website.

      Kindly check and resolve as soon as possible, as i have to take printouts of my booked tickets and make another online booking.

      Thanks & regards

          I booked tatkal ticket on 29-aug-2019 from secunderabad to rajahmundry for 2 passengers with pnr no. [protected]. Ticket status are tqwl 22 and tqwl 23 at the time of booking. The next day ticket got confirmed for 1 passenger and tqwl 1 for another passenger. Generally waiting list tickets got cancelled and refunded automatically. And also they are not allowing to passenger to travel. But now they are not refunding and says that i had to cancel manually waiting list ticket. They are not allowing passenger to travel. Why should i cancel to refund. They are not sending any instructions regarding this. Anyhow that ticket is not valid then they have to refund. Attaching ticket for reference.

            I get sms from indian railway that train was diverted from surat. Kindly find the screenshot attached for your reference. Even i have attached the refund rules from indian railways site and it is clearly mentioned that no tdr required to be filed.

            My travelling was so important that i have to book the tick

            I mail to irctc and even they didn't clarify for my query.

            Please do the needful for the refund of my ticket. Thanks.

            Reply from IRCTC was also attached in above complaint. No executive is giving proper answer against my query.

            Even I have to book my ticket in urgency in flight with higher cost.

            I request IRCTC to reimburse me my ticket amount. Thanks.

                        I tried booking a tatkal train ticket using irctc around on 2 july. My transaction failed twice after payment. They are not returning my money for one of the failed transaction. When i write to them, they keep on responding that they are looking into it. Then after 15 days ask for more details, which i already provided. Ultimately not resulting into any refund. The amount is rs2000+.
                        Please help get my refund

                          I have booked ticket from irctc app on 12th june. My refund has been processed by irctc but i didn't receive it in my bank account.
                          I got a mail from irctc that the amount has been processed from their side but the amount hasn't been reflected in my bank account. 2.5 months has passed but still i didn't get my refund of 660 rs.
                          Refund reference no. Is 17203019164923345543403.

                            Dear support team,

                            Ref: date of journey: 2nd sep 2019
                            From spe to sc by train no.: 12603
                            Pnr no.: [protected] & [protected]

                            Recently myself, my wife, my 4-year son and my father (83 years) traveled in train. While booking i booked a ticket to my father in senior citizen quota and for us in general quota (And opt for the same coach).

                            But my father got the ticket in s6 under senior citizen quota and we got in s13 which was wl. Either i have to take my father to s6 and leave there or my son along with me to s6 since my son used to sleep with me. It was a great difficult to manage to take my son from s6 to s13.

                            Request you to make some changes in the gui, where we can select lower berth for senior citizen under lower berth/senior citizen quota.

                            Please look into the matter and do needful.

                            Than you in advance,

                            Kind regards,
                            Muni

                                  Dear sir
                                  I have filed a tdr (Irctc) for the below mentioned details
                                  Tdr filing date: 17.07.2019
                                  Refund registration number:[protected]
                                  Pnr no.: [protected]
                                  Train no: 14020
                                  Passenger: 1
                                  Date of journey: 15.07.2019

                                  Reason for filing tdr - i booked my ticket for the journey from anvt to bpb, but due to some reasons according to indian railways the train didn't completed its journey & the train was stopped before the destination station (Bpb) at guwahati (Ghy) & the journey was not completed. So forcefully i have to take another route & then i travelled by bus & completed my journey. So as a result i decided to file tdr for the refund of amount as my journey wasn't completed.

                                  Response from irctc-when i checked my tdr status is shows tdr repudiated and the reason but mentioned is that i've completed my journey.

                                  As the train was terminated before destination so its not possible that i completed my journey. So the reason mentioned by irctc for tdr repudiate is false and for the verification of above statement the terminating station of the train (14020) started on 15/07/19 from anvt should be checked. I am also adding a picture of my ticket and tdr with this.

                                  So please for the refund of my amount please help me to re open my tdr file and refund my amount.
