I've had problems on irctc recently having booked on their many times in the past using English cards. Booked some tickets for Noggin recently on Cleartrip and it worked first time.
I've used makemytrip too in the past and used english cards but only for flights not trains.

Just tried using a different browser using make my trip and it appears to accept them now, however they are experiencing a few problems so will try again later.

im so sorry please try cleartip again and also ring your bank telling them what you intend doing as when we went to book we were also stopped but got it sorted after a phone call also some banks stop credit cards and debit cards if you dont tell them your going on holiday ive seen it quite a few times with angry tourists over there
Im just hoping it is that reason Cant for the life of me think of any other reason

Hi its just come to me
the reason your not getting to pay for the train on cleartrip is because your booking in english time not india time
try again early morning im 99% certain on that as it happened to us 2009 fingers crossed it will work

Problem solved, went through the credit card part rather than the debit card, strange but it worked, thanks for the replies :tup
