Mahadiscom — Exploitation of Consumers

Address:

Pune, Maharashtra

I have recently bought a resale flat. Hence I wanted to change the name of the old consumer to replace it with my name since I am the legal owner of the flat now. As per the procedure described on the MSEB website, I have made an application with all anexures as per the requirement except the TEST Report. As per the information (given by MSEB, Akurdi office), I am supposed to get a test report from MSEB authorized sub contractor. Now as a customer, how I should find the authorized contractor is a big question mark. After 3 rounds of the MSEB office, I could find couple of contractors whom I approached. When I requested them for the test report, they demanded Rs. 500 as the charges for test report. I agreed for the same provided the contractor gives a payment receipt, which both the contractors denied to give. This clearly means that they were asking for ON Money. Also when these contractors are supposed to visit the location & check the wiring/connection before issuing any such test reports, I could not see any of the contractor asking for the visit. They are issuing the test report without visiting the site. I tried to take up this matter with the MSEB officers at Akurdi office, however this was not entertained by the officers saying we cant do anything in this matter & also we cant process your application without this report. Now I don't know who will help me on this matter & how I can raise this issue to the concern authority of MSEB. Best Regards, Rushikesh Dikule +91 [protected]
