[Resolved] CESC (Calcutta Electric Supply Corporation) — meter reading

Kolkata, West Bengal

My meter was read on 9th may 2014, while I was away to office.. The concerned CESC official who came to take the reading mentioned, most impolitely, to my wife that the meter reading area was too dirty for him to take a proper reading., I wonder whether the company trains these officials on manners and soft skills..especially how senior women citizens should be spoken to. He also stated that he would not be responsible for errors in the reading that may creep in(WHY????) this is very close to a threat.He said in Bengali" ulto palta reading hoye gele boojhben" ( meaning WHAT????) If a wrong reading is taken it should be the sole responsibility of CESC, not the customer. Can we not request CESC to send sensible people to take meter readings, not impolite and rude personnel.. thank you, Arun K Chatterjee, 82 Philips Housing Estate, Kolkata 700008. consumer no: [protected] cell..[protected]

Myself Surajit Kanrar, my consumer number is [protected], I would like to complain you that last month the meter reading schedule was changed in twice. First schedule was 21st - 23rd May 2014, then changed to 26th - 28th May 2014 and finally it declared as 27th - 29th May 2014. But till end nobody came to take reading.

It was found on 31st May that the energy consumption was approximately 89 Wh whereas today I received the electricity bill through mail and it shows only 27 Wh consumption. So definitely it will give a financial loss for me in the next month when your people take the original reading of the meter. The slab will change (Approximately 60+89 = 149 ) accordingly tariff will change and I have to pay Rs 100.00 extra (minimum approximation).

It very much unjustified. Can you answer me that why I will pay extra for your mismanagement or your fault.

Today (30.07.2014) we have received sms regarding meter reading person will come to take reading at around 9.00 am but later after 12.30 pm we came to know that except our house the reading person has completed all in our locality. Please look into the matter seriously or else they will impose the same as the previous month bill.

Sir,
This is to inform you that for the last few months, no one is coming to our vicinity to take the meter readings.There are no specific dates for the person to come. We are receiving average bills for the last few months. Requesting you to please look into it. Atleast we should be notified as to when the person will come to take the reading. We are facing a lot of problems regarding this.

the scheduled meter reading for [protected] on 12/09/2014 or 15/09/2014.It is difficult to stay home on two different working days to provide access to the meter reading panel. Moreover these two dates are not consecutive.It is requested to make the reading date streamlined &amp; strictly on a single day.
