Abhijit Mhalank filed complaint against Redrail on Sep 23, 2024
On ** September **** I tried to book a rail ticket through redrail portal. When I made online payment and completed the process, I received SMS that my booking was pending. The message asked me to complete the process by using the given link. When I tried to complete the process using the link, the money once again got deducted from my account. Soon I received SMS that my booking has been unsuccessful. Subsequently I received one refund from redrail.
Since money had got deducted twice from my account during this booking process, I wrote email to redrail, submitted my bank account statement and requested to refund me the amount deducted second time from my account.
After this I received * phone calls from redrail staffers. They sounded cunning, asked me numerous questions which I answered promptly. The staffer Pavitra told me that when money got deducted from my account for the first time, my ticket actually got booked. After hearing that I informed her that I never received any such SMS, whatsapp message or actual ticket from redrail.
After this another Redrail staffer Atreya telephoned me and asked me to mail screenshot of the whatsapp message I had received when my booking had remained pending. I mailed it immediately.
On ** September **** at *.** pm a another Redrail staffer Rakesh called me and asked me to mail the screenshot shot of the same message again. When I mailed it, he told me that he would speak with his superior about refund and get back to me soon.
At *.** pm on the same evening I received email from Redrail which claimed that my issue was resolved and I must have received an email about it. In reality I never received any such email which would explain me, how my issue was resolved.
It is obvious that Redrail avoided refunding my money and made a false claim that the issue was resolved and an email was sent to me about it. Redrail is at fault in this matter and is therefore obliged to refund me my money. But by making a false claim, it is trying to cover up its fault and shun giving refund.
This looks nothing but cheating and deserves punitive action. I wish to file a complaint against Redrail and request you to do the needful in this regard.

Many thanks for your proactive approach and prompt action. This has accelerated and helped in resolving my issue.

My two years of blood & sweat got valued finally with Voxya. I got a full refund with no hustle after they received notice.
