[Resolved]  Indian Railways — Internet booking

If the railways cannot operate a web site then theyshould look at outsourcing the same to a private operator.

The situation is so pathetic... For the last 3 and a half hours I have been trying to book a ticket and just when you have completed all the details they say service not available and the page goes blank

Also when one books on an I ticket these guys just take you for a ride ( especially on wait listed tickets that dont get confirmed). The trains usually leave post 8 pm and then you are left running from pillar to post to get the i ticket cancelled and money refunded. Most of the people in the stations do not even know the process. Many a times we lose our money because the effort behind going to the station to drop the TDR etc is time consuming and irritating.

I think the railways should provide for e cancelling of all tickets ( both I- ticket as well as e ticket on the net). If e- tickets can be cancelled on the internet then why not I- tickets??????

It was a very pathetic experience when i have booked a ticket through internet for my spouse and nephew in advance fin Nashik.Through some of my sources i came to know that the below mentioned train has changed its route without any further information.

I was very much surprised with the reply given by some Mr.Manoj Gola( Customer care ) Indian Railways which can clearly be seen below::::::::Now since my persons are reaching Patna by JETLITE AIRLINES on the same day and suppose to reach Kahalgaon on the very same day only.......im very well in tention that should i send them to Bihar OR ??????????????
