[Resolved]  West Bengal State Electricity Board — Meter No.L000085,Consumer Id :[protected] – Meter Reading is mis-matched with Bill

Address:

Kolkata, West Bengal

Dear Sir, This has reference to my letter dated[protected] and several visit to Baguihati CCC, wherein I had submitted a letter against my sudden increase of Bill amount of Rs.12, 956/-. After receiving my letter by your department, your electricity inspector, Mr.Bapi had paid a visit to our house and inspected my meter and declared that meter is okay, but the unit mentioned in the electricity bill for the period of 05-March to 09-June is absolutely wrong. I was shocked to hear from him that on[protected] my meter reading at 11:10 am upto was 11276 units and the unit recorded in the bill upto[protected] was 11778 i.e. 502 units excess reading taken and charged into the bill. Mr. Bapi has already submitted his report and I had already paid my first instalment of Rs.5, 036/-. Moreover, I visited to Baguiati CCC- Electricity office where I was informed that your corrected bill would be sent to you soon.But, unfortunately no corrected bill I have received as of now. It is very disappointing to see that till date i.e. 5th of August my meter reading is showing 11620 units which is still below the billing 11778 units charged in the bill for the period 05-March to 09-June and the chief station manager of Baguiati CCC is showing his indifferent attitude to rectify the bill, even though the Mr. Bapi, the electricity inspector inspected our meter and submitted his report that units are excess charged into the bill due to wrongly taken. It is completely absurd to pay the amount o[censored]nit for electricity in advance just because o[censored]nits is recorded erroneously into the bill. Why would I pay for the units which I have not consumed and which is not come yet. Therefore, I request you kindly look into the matter and rectify the bill as soon as possible and reverse the amount for excess 502 units charged into the bill. Thanks & regards, Rahul Gupta S/o.
