    Default no refund from indianrailways.gov in last 6 months

    In July2011, indianrailways.gov.in has opened up new e-ticket booking(different from irctc).
    This was announced in previous budget.
    So, i thought of trying the govt site for booking e-ticket(as it should be more reliable than irctc).
    I created my login onindianrailways.gov.in/indianrailway/journeyplanner/layout/journey_planner.seam

    and booked a ticket through SBI payment gateway. Rs 3041.78 is deducted from my CC(I have transaction id with me)
    But, ticket was not booked. and I was asked to contact customer care( customercare@indianrailways.gov.in). They do not respond to mail. Whenever I used to call them, they mostly dont pickup the phone.
    Meantime, indianrailways.gov.in stopped booking facility.
    I got some rare chance to talk to customer care and they just said that my money will refund back as soon as e-ticketing gets restarted on indianrailways.gov.in
    I have been sending regular mail to customre care with no reply(got 1-2 reply from 20-30 mails i sent) from them. Now, its been more than 6 months.
    Can you please help me filing Conusmer case against Indian railways.
    As I have not filed any case before, I do not know how to proceed with it as I am really frustrated.
    I even tried to contact finance department from Railways and did not get any reply from them.

    Thanks,
    Shashi.

    I created my login on indianrailways.gov.in/indianrailway/journeyplanner/layout/journey_planner.seam
    I had communicated through email to customercare@indianrailways.gov.in as per their advise on dt.05.09.2011 and subsequent reminders ending on 31.12.2011 regarding cancellation & refund of booked amount. I had submitted the required information for cancellation on 5.9.2011. The date of booking was on 16/07/2011 at 13:45:28 & cancelled on 05.09.2011. The journey date was 1.10.2011. It is not understood how the Indian Railway is taking so much time to refund the booked amount of Rs 5215/- to my SBI SB A/C. as all the passengers were in waiting list at the time of cancellation. Inspite of repeated contacts, the amount of the cancelled ticket has not yet been refunded by the Indian Railway. Please help me in filing consumer case against the Indian Railway.

    With regards,

    Hi Sudhansu,

    Lets get this matter forward together. We need to file RTI or go to consumer court for this. I am from Bangalore. Let me know from which place you belong to.
    Indian railways officers feel that we can forget the money and the can eat all these hard earned money from public easily.
    I request other members/people who is suffered from this scam from railways to come forward and we fight together.
    Thanks,
    Shashi.
