      I am totally disgusted and annoyed with the way seats are given in the irctc. My parents are senior citizens and also have heart problem. There are several seats available at the time of booking for a journey of 31 hours they have allotted upper births. Irctc never treats senior citizen with respect as i feel. What foolishness is this? I totally hate this ticket booking. Irctc should show the birth number/type before payment. I[censored]ser found that the available seat is not based on their criteria, they may leave the booking.
      I have booked an e - ticket through www.irctc.co.in on 8th may, 2008 at 08: 25: 00hrs for 5 passengers. The detail ticket is as follows:
      Transaction id: [protected]
      Train no. & name: 18463/ prasanthi exp
      Class: 3ac
      From: bhubaneswar to ksr bengaluru (Sbc)
      Pnr no. [protected]
      Date of journey: 08- june - 2018
      No. Of passengers: 5
      Two senior citizens traveling together my mother aged 68 and my father aged 74 both are senior citizen and suffering from heart problem and lower berth quota is only for senior citizens. Irctc must allot lower births to senior citizens, but it is observed that after giving choice lower birth is not allotted i have opted lower birth for my parents at the time of booking the ticket, and despite of the fact that there were several seats vacant, they were allotted upper birth to both. When i prefer some seats it does not give as per our choice. It’s really irritating.

      Just you imagine how a senior citizen in this age can climb up? Please suggest what action should i take for this? I request you to kindly do the needful so that she can travel comfortably. Please confirm me the seat status if possible.

      Thanks

I talked the irctc and read all the rules about cancelltion after look at the rules, i got the info that prs counter will refund the money after deducted their cancellation charges (60 bucks) but today i went at prs counter then they told me that they can not refund the amount.
                  Then, i talked to irctc helpline, these guys disconnected my call (One of the pathetic customer service experience) and even they dont know about the single rules and they were having lack of product knowledeg because they were unable to provide my the info.
                  Niw, i want my refund because when i cancelled it on irctc refund amount was reflecting but prs counter person unable to fulfill my refund and as well as requirements.

                    I had cancelled three railway tickets on 19th april, 2018. I had booked the tickets through irctc website and cancelled through the same. But i have not received the refund yet.
                    The same thing happened last time also when i had booked railway tickets through kmb and not received the refund almost till after a month.
                    This time around also i had booked the tickets through kmb via debit card and cancelled them but i did not receive the refund amount in my bank account.
                    I have already placed a complaint with consumercomplaints.in but no action has yet been taken. I request you to take my complaints seriously and respond to them asap. All the details of the cancelled tickets have been provided in my previous complaint.
                    Thankyou.

                        I had paid for the irctc ticket booking via upi and payment gateway of razorpay. It seems that my payment was successfully delivered to razorpay bt didn't reflect in ticket booking as amount from my bank account is deducted. Please initiate the refund process as early as possible.
                        I have attached the screenshot of transaction details.

                              I feel shame for indian railways. As per railway timing, trains are not arriving on schedule. Most of north karnataka trains from bangalore are delayed with 1 hours (60 - 80 mins). Example hubli passenger, golgumbuz express etc. After bjp government came into power, few months trains were on time. But again nowadays trains are delayed as per congress regime. Whatever government i don't care, i paid my money and i want proper service.

                              If you have work ethics or if you believe in work is worship. Do your job proper else go n sleep in your home. Let youngster take control n do proper jobs in railways.

                              Shameless indian railways.

                                I wanted to delete my current irctc id and create a new irctc id with my existing email address and mobile number. I called customer care and they said that i can only do that by asking irctc to release my email id and mobile number from the data base. But when i called today to enquire about my request they denied giving information by saying that this facility doesn't exist. They constantly mislead me by giving wrong informations. And also customer care representatives deliberately disconnected my call or put me on hold for no reason.

                                  Reference to irctc complaint ids : 8439546 and 172739

                                  I booked two tickets last days (17-mar-2018) having pnr number [protected] and [protected].
                                  The charges for these tickets were 190/- per ticket. And those were in waiting list status.
                                  As we know, if these ticket were not confirmed by indian railways after charting, the e-ticket having wl status is considered as invalid tickets and these are auto-canceled
                                  By railways. Also i received a mail "the refund amount of rs. 130 per ticket will be refunded back to your respective account shortly".

                                  Why the railways has deducted 60/- per ticket as these tickets were booked online and auto canceled by railways only?
                                  Is it fair to charge on wl e-tickets if railways itself cancels the ticket. What is our fault?
                                  In first line i have mentioned irctc complaint ids. As they are not providing any proper reason for this and not replying to this concern.

                                  Request you to please look into the issue.
