There are many online ways available on the internet, and these all work well in their way and help you to check the PNR status of your train ticket. But sometimes, we are not able to get what we want. But sometimes many of us are not able to check the PNR status.
If you are one of those who are not familiar with the Railway apps on their Android smartphone, then this post is for you. Because many times we all are unable to access any railway app. So, with the help of this post, you will also be able to check your PNR status using the WhatsApp app on your Android or another smartphone.
Pre-requisites:
- First of all, you have updated your WhatsApp on your device.
- An Internet Connection (Mobile Data or WiFi)
- You should have your PNR and Train number
How to Check Your PNR Status on WhatsApp
To check the PNR Status on WhatsApp, follow our below-mentioned few simple and easy steps:
- First of all, you have to save a new contact on your device, so open the dialer app on your device
- After that, you have to type the official phone number “7349389104” of the MakeMyTrip portal. And add this number to your contact list on your device.
- Once you save the number on your device, open the “WhatsApp” on your smartphone.
- After that, go to the contact list, and here you have to refresh your contact list. (This will refresh your contact list on WhatsApp.)
- Now, you have to search for the contacts that you have saved recently on your phone.
- Here, only have to send your train number to check the live train status, and you can also send the PNR number to check the PNR status.
- Once you send your PNR or Train number, MakeMyTrip will send you the complete info about your PNR and Train status.
How to Refresh Contact List on WhatsApp:
- Open WhatsApp on your Device and then tap on the “New Chat’ icon, which you can find at the right corner.
- Now, tap on the Three Dotted Menu button, which can be found at the top right side.
- Here, you have to choose the “Refresh” option, and this will refresh your contact list on your WhatsApp.
Important note: MakeMyTrip will respond only when they have seen your message. And if you see the “Seen” status, then it does not mean that MakeMyTrip will respond instantly. But It all depends on the total number of inquiries. But, all the time, when I’ve tried to get info from MakeMyTrip, I”‘ve got the response instantly to my queries. So, don’t worry about it.
In my opinion, you can use this service as an alternative option to an Indian Railways official app. Because sometimes, you will have to wait, until the MakeMyTrip team checks the message that you have sent. And they will respond to your message after checking your sent message.
