Indian Railways Complaints & Reviews

Hi

I have booked tickets for myself, my mother and my grandfather from Koderma(KQR) station to Sealdah(SDAH) station.
By Name : Mayank Bharti, Raghaw Modi, Munni Devi. The Date Of Journey was 30/12/2012 and ticket was Booked On:[protected].
PNR no. was [protected]. Since the train was late by more than 20 hrs so I choosed another train to travel from Koderma to Sealdah.
On 1st Jan I have filed TDR to get money back because i have not travelled on that train with information 'Passengers not travelled,
train was late by more than 3 hrs.'
Now its approximately 1.5 months but I did not get my money back. When I called on IRCTC customer care number, it was told there
that IRCTC has already forwarded the mail to Indian Railways and now it is pending from the side of Indian Railways.
I have requested that if there is any option to give a reminder mail to get it processed soon but they told me that it is not possiblem from
there end as it is in suspended state --> neither approved nor cancelled. No further action can be done by IRCTC.
I need my money back.

Dear Sir

I am very much disappointed by IRCTC.

I tried to book a ticket today for Jaipur-Gurgaon (transaction id: [protected]) and amount Rs. 390 was deducted but the ticket was not issued. When I checked the failed transaction status it says "Payment not received from the bank."

I also filed an online TDR on irctc against a reservation from Jaipur-Gurgaon (transaction id: [protected]) as my train got delayed for 6 hours. I filled this TDR on January 2nd, 2013 and the refund still awaited.

I have lost about Rs. 8,000-Rs. 10,000/- on IRCTC due to failed transactions and cancelled tickets (refund not settled) in last about 10 months.

I have all the tickets of my reservations and can also submit the bank transaction/ credit card details if needed.

Please help me.

Thank you
Ritu Singh

Would like to bring to your notice about a health issue we faced after travelling in Kanyakumari- Bangalore Express (16525). My daughter had severe skin infection due to an insect bite from the train. This has happened twice, once 4 weeks before due to bed bug bite and last week due to some poisonous insect bite. This time it was so severe that she ran through high temperature and had swollen wrists and legs. Both the time we traveled in second AC and I am wondering what will be the case with the general coaches. We are paying a good amount for second AC reservation and this is not the quality we would expect out of it. The coaches are very dirty and we often see rats running around. Also, every year, a huge amount is cut from my salary in the name of income tax. What is the purpose of me paying tax if Govt cant provide us good public transport facility. All we ask is quality faclity, not some hi-fi stuff.

Sir/Madam,
I am Rajlaxmi Singh. My Mother & Brother (Shivkumari Devi & Arvind Kumar Singh) My brother was going for treatment in CMC Vellore. They return from their. They
was travelling From Chennai To Itarsi on 21st Dec in Coimbatore Jaipur express train No 12969. ticket was in First AC. Status WL1/WL2. Actually they lost her ticket and complaint in railway department about it.

Main Issues is that on that jurney TC named Unknow told my Mother and brother to go to general boogie . He humiliated them & spoke very arrogantly with
them and when they tried to clear the matter TC started arguing with them and
demanded Rs.2000 from them.

My mother need to reach Itarsi any cost because next onward train from Itarsi to Jabalpur (Amarkantak 12854) and Jabalpur to Singrauli (Shaktipunj 11447)was continuously. And Due to mis behavior of TC my mother and Orthoritise patient brother suffering in cold night of that journey. Then one passenger of that train who have seen all this drama than he have extra two ticket (because of absence of his family member) they offer to my mother.
This is also a crime but due to that situation they accept the ticket with full payment of amount. They come to Itarsi/Jabalpur/Singrauli and complain at all this station for refund amount of that journey. But they not take any initiative step. They want original ticket. But Lucky with in month of journey one person handover our ticket when he find. Then again my father go to Singrauli station on 16th January and request refund amount. But he return with hopeless nobody give proper reply. And finally we lost 7000/- and our mother respect & problem suffer by my suffering brother who go for his better treatment which was cost it was uncountable

I incurred a great loss of money and time and mental stress and health .I request you to take serious legal action
against the TC and the Railway Department and make tell them to make arrangements
for my Compensation for humiliating my family
I request you to kindly take this matter seriously and help me out as soon as possible.

1. I m travelling in NE express train no 12505. On 24 jan2013 cattering service staff came to at 1700hrs and took the order. I freffered non veg..at 1745 he came back with the dinner pack saying that it my dinner pack. I cheched it then and there. I come to know that it was the veg, however he took money for the non veg. I returnd it an he served me the cold chicken with rice. I refused to take it. Hearing this he said that there will be no food served after this till morning, so i have to take that. I asked for the menu and ratelist , he refused it. Latter on at around 2030 hrs fresh dinner was served to other people..i believe the food which was served to was the balanced left of lunch time.i have to pay Rs120 for that cold meal having no option.
2, TTT in the same train misbehaved with my buddy who came to meet me in AC 3, he had sleeper class seat. TTT abused him..i dont remember the name of TTT but he came between kanpur and agra railway station. The man who got abused said nothing to TTT because he was discipline soldier and went to sleeper class. However the soldier is entitled the AC3 class and was traveling on his warrant.
3. This behaviour of staff is not exceptable at all.
4. Request penative action against the staff.

But till today I have not received the refund amount from IRCTC or N F Railway. I have posted all the relevant documents from TTE of 2AC coach of Train No: 15696 to IRCTC.

Hello there,

I had booked 2 tickets from Ghaziabad to kanpur for my parents, but when they reached station, train was late by 12 hours so they caught another train, I filed TDR to refund money mentioning the reason that "Train was late for more than 3 hours". Now after many follow ups with IRCTC customer care, I see status as regretted and no money is refunded, there is no reason given for this.
Please help me in getting my money back and please punish the officers who do these kind of irresponsible work of not refunding money in time.

I had an experience on 17/1/13 during journey from Trivandrum to Calicut in Trivandrum-Mangalore Express.The ID number given was that of PAN card which I forgot to take.But there was my Adhar card in original , my college ID card in original,DL copy and National Service Scheme ID card issued by state government authority.Eventhough I produced all these the TT (looked like a boy)didn't agree.I have to pay Rs 760 as ticket fare for four persons + Rs 1000 as fine.
I think this happens only for gentle passengers.Many are traveling in general compartment without ticket.None of the TTRs checks the ticket there.Those who took ticket and just forgot to produce the id mentioned in the ticket have to pay heavy penalties.I wish to know to whom to be complained on this issue.

Indian Railway has announced many rules on blocking the agent Via ticket Booking. But it is so pathetic , that there is still no change in the same. Tatkal Railway tickets can be booked at Sastri Bhavan Post Office, Nungambalam, Chennai, But as per my experience in booking tickets there, seems like it is the place for only the agents to book tickets. I was the 14th Person in the queue, Among the first 13, 12 people are agents. Each ticket form they produce has the maximum count, also these people are covering the area of the booking place, so that other people cannot see what is happening there. Almost 20 mins, there was no movement in the queue, People behing started shouting and then they moved, In addition,they are getting calls for new bookings, and in the same spot they filled the forms and giving to the agents in the queue. When I reached the counter, it was 10:25, and all the tickets are over by that time. If it was the case for me, who was very close in the queue after the agents, what will be for the peoplw who were standing after that. There was no one to check the tickets, no verfication, and the Post office Officials are not even bothered about that. They are shouting on the people (who were shouting on the agents) to be silent. This is very pathetic situation and will be more worse in future. This situation is happening in Sastri Bhavan Post office on a daily basis. There should be some action taken to avoid this

I have read in news papers that side middle berth is removed in Garib Raths.But when i booked Sec-VSKP Garib rath train tickets i was allotted side middle berth.Side middle berths are so inconvenient and uncomfortable.middle age,old age persons cannot climb to that berth.Taller persons cant sleep.

Please ensure that Railways remove this side middle berth option which causes inconvenience to passengers....
