Hi Team,

I had Filed a TDR against PNR number [protected] on 2nd of July 2019.

Train No.-12322
Train Name- KOLKATA MAIL

By mistake I selected the reason as TRAIN DIVERTED AND NOT TOUCHING BOARDING STATION instead of Train got delayed by more than 4 hours.

I had mailed [protected]@irctc.co.in for changing the reason for TDR filing on 3rd of July itself but it was not changed. So my TDR gor=t Repudate on 10th July.

It was Rs 990 cost ticket.
Kindly help me reopen my TDR with a valid reason.

Attached the screenshot of the mail and the TDR Repudiate status.

Thanks
Prachi

        I registered on the irctc website and got a user account. Irctc took payment from my credit card and then for some uknown reason later refunded the money. I have tried to re-register but the system does not allow me to because my original registration is still in the system (But will not allow me to make a booking). I have written several emails to irctc about this and also asking them to cancel the original registration so that i can re-register. All that i get in responce is an automated reply telling me that it will be looked into by the relevant department.

          I cancelled this ticket on 5 april 2019.
          I have already mailed and called irctc complaint centre several times. But no satisfactory response from irctc and haven't received my refund.
          Everytime i mail irctc, i get an automated response.
          When i call, they put my call on hold to transfer to senior executive, everytime they give me different reasons. I have also sent them my bank statement several times as asked by them.

                      I travelled by train 12510 from Howrah to Krishnarahapuram on the 9th/10th July. My PNR is [protected] and my berth was S-7, 58. The train was over crowded like a refugee train. at the time of boarding at 0045 hrs I could not even reach my berth easily as passengers were sleeping on the aisle and by berth was also occupied. the toilet was in bad condition obviously when a compartment meant for 72 passengers were occupied by over 150 passengers. this continued until I arrived at KJM. Pantry caterer was overcharging for food and water. e.g water bottle price Rs 20 against the standard price of Rs 15.00. food packet labled price was Rs 45 and being sold at Rs 50 at the stations. in the night I had to share my berth with a reservation less passenger. in a nutshell it was like travelling in a general compartment.

                      I am not interested in refund but this bad service by IRCTC has to stop. pl do not overload passengers in compartments and maintain a strict watch over vendors authorized by you.

                            I bought samosa for 20 only 2 samosa was provided with tea 15 and coffee 25. Chowmin which was 30 for 100gm is now 45 for 100gm.
                            They are saying that government has increased the price of irctc pantry catering. But the price of 3 samosa in ispat express is 20 for 3 samosa

                              Its' really surprising that the food supplied by the service provider is of below standard in a train like rajdhani express to guwahati and new delhi. Earlier menu was there in the serving tray which is now replaced by the some other pictures. Above all no jam with bread, sometimes no ice-creams. On the other hand, soan papdi is replaced by mere cheapest biscuits. Above all, the rotis served were stale in most of the cases and the no bread-stick & butter with soup. The quality of the butter is deteriorated. Amul butter is replaced by verka butter. Whereas the food charges are not less, rather the fare is going higher day by day. If the complaint is given to the catering manager, it's of no use. I request the concerned authority to look into the matter very seriously.

                                      This is a major issue that I am facing.

                                      My Mobile number which I have had on me for more than 10 years is being used in another IRCTC account which doesn't belong to me.

                                      The mobile number updated in my account currently is no longer with me. It is discontinued and now belongs to someone else. Every time I book someone else gets my travel details. Being a woman its not safe for me to disclose my travel details to strangers.

                                      I have never been able to book a train ticket in fear of not receiving proper train details.
                                      If we all continue to use whatever number and email we wish, IRCTC will have nothing but inaccurate fake data o[censored]sers.

                                      Please make mobile OTP verification the mobile number update process.

                                      Thank you
