Indian Railway Catering & Tourism Corporation [IRCTC] Complaints & Reviews

I have booked for a ticket in third-ac compartment in kochuveli humsafar train from krishnarajapuram to kochuveli for travel on 1st september 2019. There were 365 seats available in the same category and the choice for berth i have made was lower, but even with such high availability, i have been allotted upper berth.
I have tried booking the ticket twice and still the same issue persists.

I have contacted irctc customer care who informed me that my choice for berth was nil, which is not true as i am sure that the choice made by me both the times were lower and the customer care was adamant in saying that nobody will be able to change this system of allotting random seats when request is made for a particular category (365 seats available means there will be enough lower berths available)

I was trying tatkal booking through irctc website - desktop,

While checking the availability, the loader comes and it was not stopped, i was waiting more than a minute still not stopped, then i tried to login again, unfortunately i didn't get ticket because no seats available

I found the reason for it, i have taken the screenshot and dropped below

Because of this (Javascript) error only the loader was not stopped, in picture i mentioned,

Irctc ~guys~ can you please check into it,

I booked a train ticket for aug 25, 2019 from chandigarh to delhi, in kalka shatabdi, train number 12012.

I got a confirmation of the train ticket with coach and seat number of c8, 12 for the date of aug 25, 2019. Pnr number is [protected].

I boarded the train, but someone was sitting on my seat with a confirmation for the same seat and her name was on the chart and not mine.

I called the customer care and the customer care executive confirmed that my travel date is aug 25, 2019 but the online pnr status was showing 26 aug, 2019 as traveling date.

Travelling ticket examiner gave me another ticket for rs 1440 though i showed him the confirmed ticket.

I have attached my booking confirmation, the online screenshot of pnr status and the ticket that tte gave me.

I travelled with the confirmed ticket in the correct train, still i had to pay for the new ticket and the penalty. I would like to have a refund of rs. 1440.

I have mailed irctc multiple times but not getting a reply. Following are the complain ticket numbers of my multiple emails: 4845063, 4852658, 4860648

I tried booking train tickets on irctc website on 04-aug-2019. Amount has been debited from my account, however there was an error displayed while redirecting back to irctc website from idfc bank site.

Transaction id: [protected]
Total amount displayed on irctc: 1481.96 inr
Total amount debited including transaction fees: 1, 493.76 inr
Bank: idfc first

Its been almost 20 days still amount has not been credited back. I formally raised a complaint with irctc and they are saying amount has not been received as settlement failed.

Simultaneously, i raised a dispute with bank, but as per them amount has been settled to irctc.

I am not sure what needs to be done in this case. Very unfortunate that neither bank not irctc taking responsibility.

Kindly refund the amount.

It is regarding travel from hyderabad to madurai with less time. Train no: 12604 starts from hyb at 16.50 and reaches mas at 05.55. Train no: 22671 (Tejas!) starts from ms at 06.00 and reaches mdu at 12.30. If the travel time of 12604 reduced atleast ten minutes, people can reach egmore (Ms) from chennai central (Mas) within that time gap and can catch 22671. 12604 already has reasonable buffer time between spe (Sullurpetta) and mas (01 hour 45 minutes for 82.6km). This could be used. It will also help people who want to go to tpj and kqn.

Dear sir/ madam,
It has come into noticed that even though there is more than 120 seats available in tatkat booking, i am unable to book it. Though this case was not there before few months.

Also there was a news regarding arrest of the assistant programmer by cbi, after this incidence, one was able to book tatkal ticket without any problem. Now again the situation is same.

Today (22 aug 2019) i was trying to book train from guwahati to tambaram in nagaon express, though there is nearly 131 tatkal seats available for booking, but i wasn't able to do. The same case was yesterday also./

I humbly request the concern authority to look after it. It will be a great help to thousands indian passengers, who can not afford other means of travel.

Thanking you.

I cancelled 4 tickets. Two were from bandra to samakhiali dated as on[protected]; and two were from gandhidham to bandra dated as on[protected]. I cancelled all of them on[protected]. However, i got the mail saying i should get the refund within 2-3 working days. But i still got no refund in my bank accounts. I paid the amount using a ru-pay debit card. It has been 10 days and the customer care number mentioned is always busy. Please help me get back my refund because this is third time when i cancelled the tickets and i did not get the refund back.

I had booked ticket pnr number [protected] on 30th july 2019, my money was deducted from my card, got pnr number the same day but didnt get any message on my phone and it is not showing in my account booking history. After 2 days i got sms on my phone but there is no detail in my irctc booking history.
How can i print my tickets? When will my booked ticket show up in my account?
Please help!

Dear sir / madam

Increase the credit card limit of card no
4377...... 6163

Here i wish to inform you that i got my irctc sbi received by me in the second week of jul 19

While interesting to apply for the card, one of your company representative namely aduri santhi bhushan said me that card limit will be 70000/- but when i got the card surpriseingly saw the limit only 35000/- i have been using sbi prime card with max limit of 35000/- and not fulfill my monthly limit where i spend more than that. Thats why i agreed to take the irctc sbi card with limit of 70000/-

Now i need not your card with limit of rs 35000/- only. So please suggest me to how to return the card to you.

Please let me know the card return policy sothat i can return the unused card to you at the earliest
