Explain about the Ticket Deposit Receipt
TDR full form is Ticket Deposit Receipt. Every time you book a train ticket or an air flight ticket, the confirmation page will ask for the deposit of money. This amount is non refundable and it varies from company to company. Usually this deposit is less than Rs 2000 but sometimes it can be more than Rs 10,000 if you are booking very expensive tickets like business class (first) class on flights. The purpose of asking for TDR as part of your booking process is to make sure that your booking status is confirmed and secure even if anything happens with your internet connection before the payment goes through or if something happens with the card you have used for making payment.
How to use Ticket Deposit Receipt?
You can think of the TDR like a betting slip. If you lose your betting slip it is not refundable. Similarly, when you lose your Ticket Deposit Receipt, the company will not refund back the deposit. As you book tickets, you may or may not want to keep money in a separate bank account or credit card for booking tickets and for any other purchases that you make online. Or maybe, you like to keep some money with all these cards so that, if one card is stolen, either one of the other cards are still there in your wallet and can be used to make payments online.
