Address: 695006

Train no. 16316
Name of the train: kochuveli bangalore express
Date of travel: 18/04/2019

This is to bring to your notice that i was charged rs.80/- for an egg biriyani and rs. 120 for chicken biriyani. As per my knowledge i understand that the rate for egg biriyani is rs.30 and chicken biriyani should only cost rs.40. I request you to take necessary action as this is absolute day light robbery!!

    Address: PLOT NO 168,, INDUSTRIAL AREA PHASE-2, Panchkula, Haryana, 134113

    Today on 18th april-2019 after log-in to irctc account and after following steps of "from - to" date of journey etc and on clicking "check availability & fare" it appears "unable to perform this transaction, please try later" and thus unable to book the ticket. Checked again again but the same message appears.

    Kindly help and sort out.

      I traveled from ahmadabad to bangalore via adi ypr exp - 16501 on[protected]. I had to get my bike and dog moved through train parcel services. I religiously went to the ahmadabad main station for the last three days to make a booking for the bike and pet, the local authorities denied asking me to come 2 hours prior to the departure of train and make the booking. I even carried my confirmed ticket along with all the bike and pet documents needed for transportation.

      However on the day of journey i reached the station at 2.30 pm (My train departs at 6.40 pm) the authorities claimed i was late and the asked the brokers to step in to pack it immediately. Inspite of my repeated requests from the authorities the officers paid no attention and rather let only the brokers (Non working staff) to close the deal. Also they said on the lday of my journey that the train has no dog box and the animal cannot accompany me in my train.

      Later i paid a sum of rs.4500 and received a bill of rs.2120. The rest money was paid to the officers in the parcel office. I was very dissatisfied with the whole reckless and intentional behavior of the officials involved. Even the brokers act like hooligans and the authorities have no issues at all.

      I wish to complain on the below mentioned points :

      1. Make the parcel office free of outside brokers who disrupt the whole process. They are more in number and are intimidating.
      2. Take strict action on the officers in duty who collaborated with the brokers in looting (I was ready with all the documents 3 days prior to travel but was denied booking by the officers) the travellers.
      Time - 2.30 pm date:[protected]. They denied giving their names.
      3. Unavailability of options to book a dog box online. I have to move my pet through paid services that cost me rs.11, 000 now.

      I request you to look into this issue and resolve the issue at the earliest. Else expect me to go on social media tagging the railway minister and authorities. I attach a copy of my receipt for your reference.

            I have booked a ticket with pnr [protected] from bgs to pnbe but the train (12567 on 9th april) was cancelled (Shorted at barauni)... But irctc is telling that train was not terminated and not giving any proof.
            I have the proof which clearly shows that train was terminated at barauni junction.
            I have contacted irctc many times.. Now they are also not responding properly they even can't reply with proper reasons

              I faced the below mentioned issue on two adjacent days. While trying for tatkal, I could login successfully at 1045 and could see Available-288# till 1055. But when reloading again after 1055, the same page throws error This error popup will be gone once the tatkal tickets are in the waiting list. IRCTC is again facing issues as it had before and booking tatkal is going be like worst old days. Authorities please look into this.

                  Dear Sir/Madam, This is to inform you that I, Amit agarwal have booked one
                  train tickets in sleeper (SL) for Amit agarwal from sujangarh
                  (Sujh) to Newbongaigaon (nbq) on dated : 3.03.2019 in “waiting GNWL38/19”
                  through IRCTC Website with PNR No. [protected] & Transaction ID :
                  [Protect] in Train No./Name : 15623/BGKT KYQ EXP on I get paid amount of
                  Rs. 740/- online through paytm upi. After booking we get waiting WL19 in
                  tickets and then when travell date 9.4.19 when I see I got RACS6/39 BERTH AFTER CHART PREPARED
                  As
                  soon as I got these confirmed RAC tickets we observed that we can’t travel in RAC ticket because my ticket is not fully confirm
                  I decide to
                  cancel these tickets. When I start process to cancel the ticket same time
                  then IRCTC websites shows that “You can’t cancel ticket after chart prepared . After that I will try to cancel the ticket again after final chart prepared but I was failed to cancel this ticket so I have file TDR at
                  17:22:30 am on 9.04.2019 vide TDR No. [protected]. With remarks that
                  “ Passengers Not Travelled due to ticket is in RAC”. Sir/Madam, I got mail from
                  “[protected]@irctc.co.in” on dt. 16.4.19 with subject “TDR Request
                  Repudiated Through EDR/ECRS” and Reason for Repudiation/rejection:, ”AS PER
                  CHART, PASSENGER HAS TRAVELLED” Sir/Madam, I am requesting you please look
                  into the matter deeply and investigate the same on personal level to find
                  out the realty. You may check verify from CCTV footage or other proof as per
                  your convenience. This is the question to think that, If I travelled in
                  train as per chart then what is need for me to cancel ticket or file TDR? I
                  think, statement/chart forward to Railway Deptt.by concern TT of that train
                  was wrong. He provide these seats to another un-authorized passengers and
                  fare for the same tickets put in their pocket. Sir/Madam, I understand and
                  respect the rules and regulations of Indian Railways but this is also matter
                  or realty and faith. This is not a matter of only Rs. 740 /- and i will
                  never become rich with this money but due to false statement of some
                  employees (TT) railway, many passengers/public are looted by them and hurt
                  their feelings, loose faith from Railways as will as our country government.
                  I am attaching herewith train ticket & tdr for your ready reference. I hope
                  that you will understand my feelings and matter and work on this point
                  seriously and personally. Looking forward positive response.
                  Sincerely,

                        Already i called and emailed
                        So many times but no response
                        And once i complaint here
                        Still didn't receive my refund amount
                        Please initiated the refund..
                        Thank you

                          Hello sir/mam,
                          I've booked two tickets via irctc app in tatkal quota. When during payment via google pay, the upi id was entered and the amount was debited from the bank successfully. But in the irctc app, the transaction gets canceled and showing status as "pending from bank end" even after debited from the bank.
                          This type of failing transactions is happening in a third consecutive manner.
                          Please initiate the refund process as soon as possible.

                            It's been over 13 days since my money rs2101.80 got deducted and till now there is no response as when i will get money back.
                            I contacted the irctc by call first and the agents over there are so worst. I had no option so i contacted irctc by email with the proof that they have my money and it's been 5 days, the only response which i got is "we have forwarded your request to our concern team and will contact you shortly" but the "shortly" never comes.

                                  Dear sir/madam,

                                  I have booked reservation in 12509 - guwahati exp train (Pnr - [protected]) with confirmed tickets (4 berths), boarding point is at kjm and travel date is on 10th april`2019.

                                  When the train reached the boarding point, most of coaches doors were locked, mine is s8, we were standing exactly as per the display on the platform.

                                  Tc was in s9 and suggesting all passengers to go back and board the train instead of opening the doors, due to huge crowd and many unauthorized passengers in reservation coaches we have missed the train.

                                  This is purely mistake of train staff, because of this we have missed our journey and also lost casting our votes. (11th april`2019 andhra pradesh elections).

                                  I need compensation and explanation on this issue, could you please help me at your end.

                                  Also lodged complaint at station code kjm - serial no. 016308 (Attached artifact)

                                  Regards,
