Hi,

My account number is: [protected]. I paid the electricity bill through bescom online portal. On 14-jun-2017 11:39:16 i made a payment of rs. 916 through my net banking.

The amount has been deducted from my account and i got the failure status from bescom portal as below details.

I have paid the power supply bill due for the may month on 05/07/2017 as per the following details.
1. Account id:[protected], transaction id:[protected] Amount paid Rs. 2300
2. Account id: [protected], transaction id: 1291394, Amount paid Rs. 2300

Please refund the first payment on account id:[protected] transaction id:[protected] amount paid rs. 2300 to my Sbi a/c [protected] and keep me informed.

My rr number is 7msmeh22058. The bescom bill for may usage as per reading taken on 4-6-17 is 5477 kwhrs with the last reading bill cycle as 5280 kwhrs and hence the bill is raised for 197 units coming up to rs 1297/-.
I notice that the reading taken by the meter reader on 4-6-17 is wrong and he has adhoc entered the reading. I note the reading in the meter on 8-6-17 at 10-30 am is only 5391 kwhrs only and hence the correct bill to be raised has to be less than 111 kwhrs which may cost less.
Please arrange to visit the installation by the meter reader immediately for raising a correct bill so as to enable me to pay my correct tariff. I am not paying the wrong bill as the extra units come in the higher slab leading to loss for me. Please take immediate corrective action. L

I had paid my electricity bill for account:
[protected] on 15th may from icici bank.
Money was debited but payment has not happened. So i paid again from bescom app.
But my money was not refunded to my icici account.

Could you please look into this and help me get the refund.

The man who recieved my call at bescom office noted my complaint but just told me no updates when i asked him uptil when problem will be resolved. Kindly look into the issue soon as i am not getting appropriate reply from bescom representatives. Name of my apartment is bilden's meadows. Dr. Ambedkar road. Area is new thippasandra post. Pincode is -560075.
This is the sms i recieved from bescom.

Additional transformer and electrical pole are planned to be placed near to our apartment (Within in 3feet radius). 300 people reside in and around 20 meter radius. Placing another transformer would be dangerous as well as causing hindrance to our living. 11kb transformer already been installed near our apartment and that is also just 3 feet radius. Hence i kindly request to direct the appropriate authorities to place the transformer as per norms.

In channasandra, there is a continues power cut everyday around more then 10times per day and in weekend more than 10hrs of powercut by bescom and no body is picking phones and they are turchering people.. If this continue... We will definitely raise our voice in humanrights where we are paying our electricy bill on time but bescom have his monopoly in this area about providing the electricity..

I am a consumer to bescom ref :s10h9587. When there s power breakdown after waiting for a reasonale time & if i contact bescom non of the officlas in my jusrisdiction are available to speak with and report the matter. Right from asst engineer up to the lowest rank i recive nil reponse either not attending to calls or hear a recorded voice "busy" or switched off. Even repeat attempts the status is so. Dihgusted and frustrated when we call 1912 the situation is not any better calls go to blank. Whats app is not at al seen. If this kind of status perisists for hrs together one feels very disguesting. How can every one will be so irresponsible. For this kind of attitude the customers has to pay bill on time to recieve this courtesy?

Our locality has been facing a low voltage issue for the past few months. Bescom was supposed to install an extra transformer but there is no news of it. The voltage reading on the meter fluctuates between 140 to 150 volts which is way below the required optimum voltage. The existing transformer keeps failing and needs to be replaced every now and then which is causing more inconvenience to people. A month back, the transformer failed and...

Hi Sir,
I live in Sekhar Hyde park apartment, near immadahalli circle, whitefield Bangalore-560066 and 2 out of the 3 street lights are not working and this is causing a lot of inconvenience to us who is staying in Sekhar Hyde park apartment. we come at night and the visibility is very poor because the street light is not working.So i humbly request you to get the street lights fixed so that it is more convenient for people who come during night.Please do the needful and oblige.

Thanking You,

From Sunday 30th April there is high voltage in our building and in our neighbouring houses we contacted besceom they came on sunday and told there is no problem in our meter and asked to get it checked by an electrician. The electrician says problem in the pole. Again today bescom people attended but of no use. It is 270 volts Kindly attend to it at the earliest we are unable to use any electrical appliances.

Every time it rains power is switched off for several hours at Bilekahalli, Vijaya bank layout, Arekere area in Banneraghatta road Bangalore. this is happening since last 2 years & BESCOM has exhibited the ultimate inefficiency in maintaining equipment, cutting tree branches. whenever it rains it is 100% sure to lead in to power outage for several hours. The central complaint no 1912 is always engaged because some irresponsible Bescom staff keeps the reciever off the line...BESCOM qualifies for the award of worst ever service level by a Govt agency. Power minster DK Shivakumar talks big, but does nothing about this issue...pathetic...

Hi,
Before 15 years back bescom has placed electricity lines on my site.now am unable to construct the building and now when I approached them they are asking money for shifting that lines.
I contacted AE from btm layout(tavarekere), he is telling me to do with my own money.its there fault who kept on my site now telling me to spend huge money on that.please let me know whom should I contact so that it can be resolved.

Daily there is power cut for minimum 5Hours.if you call on toll free number or send normal sms, WhatsApp or email them, there is no response.
It feels like a village at 6th cross, Nisarga layout, Karthik nagar.when i told the customer care executive that i will complain, he said confidently go and complain.this is the attitude they have.On 5th April, there was a power cut from 3pm till 6th April .And if its saturday or sunday, there are power cuts for 8hours.People in Bescom customer care don\'t pick up the call or reply over sms on [protected].

Sir,
This is to bring to your notice that my meter reading was recorded wrongly that results in wrong amount in the bill.
Below are the recently paid bills:

11/11/2016, Amount paid : 338INR, Receipt : [protected]

12/12/2016, Amount paid : 473 INR, Receipt : [protected]

14/01/2017, Amount paid : 455 INR, Receipt : [protected]

10/02/2017, Amount paid : 750 INR, Receipt : [protected] ( I paid this amount when I wasn't even at home for the month and power consumption was very minimal at the beginning of the month)

22/03/2017, Amount paid : 997 INR, Receipt : [protected] ( I had serious doubts about this bill amount, but still I paid it )

And now, for the latest bill from 08/03/2017-08/04/2017, the amount is 1476 INR. How is it possible that the bill amount is increasing gradually each month? I live in a rented house. There's no such heavy electronic equipments here. Only regular Lights and Fan. And as per the present bill, it shows that my power consumption is 247 units. There is a serious fault either in the meter or in the billing system of BESCOM. Also I wonder, why does my bill show arrears of 78.74 INR.

Could you please look in to this matter at the earliest? Thank you.
