Honourable Sir/Madam

We had raised the online complaint against the meter installed way back at the end of January with the adress C-1/30, S-2, Dilshad Ext-2, Sahibabad, , Ghaziabad-201005.
Since then no action was taken and the request remain in progress.
May I understand how much maximum time does it takes to get the online complaint resolved.
If the request raises online why a customer had to visit to electricity office and chase it time and again.

They had installed new meter with the old wires on 15/june/19 which arises the fault twice and had to call the local linemen to get it corrected.

Kindly intervene as this is high time because they had asked us to pay Rs 25, 000 to get the issue sorted instantly, for which we were bound to do at the temperature of 42-43 degree Celsius.

Thanks

    I have applied a new temporary meter connection on 25 May 2019.

    Application no. is G26519682 and already paid complete mention amount for same.After many followup, my application get fully approved on 08 Jun 2019.

    But since then today(17 June 2019), I have didn't received my connection with meter.

    Can you please advise when will i get this connection and to whom should i contact.

    Looks like there is no benefit of digitization in electricity department.Even all online process we need to manually go to department many times.
    Last month bill was 1000 and this month 2500 suddenly we are 2 person in family 2fans 1 refrigerator no a.c. 1washing machine

          Dear sir/madam
          I am from patna billing address c/o ramanand sharma keshri nagar near baba chowk. I want you to draw attention on my meter reading because in last few 3 or 4months my electricity bill is completely unexpectable and we are shocked. I compare my bill with some of my neighbours who are using more electric appliances than me and still they are getting low bills. I request you to do enquiry and do a solution as quick as possible.

                Dear sir

                Last year in the month of june 2012 the bill showed the approved load of 4 kws crossed to 4.560 kws . This was purely a meter fault as we don't have that much consumption for a two bed room flat. The bill for june 2012 was Rs 2855/- which was paid on time. The next bill created was for Rs 9965/- which was beyond our expectation. we don't run a factory. We consulted the local office & we were informed that the approved load of 4 kws has been crossed so the new meter of 5 kws will be installed, the bill Rs 9965/- includes new meter installation charges. After paying the total sum Rs 9965 + 300 ( late fee) = 10265/- the next bill started showing 5 kw load & the meter rent went up from Rs 260/month to Rs 325/month. But after one year on this date 23-05.2013 the new meter is yet to be installed despite several reminders. The dapartment says the maters are not available. I request the higher authorities to adjust the sum collected against the new meter + the rental from 20.08.2012 to 20.05.2013. the total sum Rs 10265 + 650 = 10915/- should be immediately adjusted in our account . This matter should be looked after on priority basis, otherwise there is no other option but to contact the higher authorities.
                Kindly find all documents as attached.
                Thanks & Regards

                There is no one to listen, The Power supply is the worst, the power cuts are frequent, out of 24 hrs only 7-8 hrs power supply is provided to the consumers, The U.P state & particularly the Ghaziabad Distt is the worst hit.
                Despite that the bills are inflated, the power tarrif has been increased & power supply is nowhere.

                  All o[censored]s are out of Visakhapatnam for complete last month. Even before to that my mother was alone for 30 days. When we went out of city, we have switched off the electricity meter. To my surpise I could see a bill of Rs. 3000 in this month. This has been haapening once in every quarter. Though we complained several times, no action has ben taken. Request the forum to suggest how to get rid of this prolem.

                  Thanks,

                    Address: Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh

                    Charging illegal Money against blame to fault in Meter-Slow Running.

                    Few months before our meter was running slow due to which we have received less amount bill under amount 100 for two months. We have been told by our neighbors that we should give application to changing our meter.However, the very next day we have given the application after few days few fellows from electricity board came for changing meter.And had changed the meter.

                    After few days they said this meter is old and working slowly.So we have to charge the amount from you. They gave us a notice against it we have to deposit Rs.16,000/- for the same.We have shown the bill for last two months of which we have received the less amount rest months bills are correct.But they said that it was running slow from last few years.

                    But after change of meter and with new meter also we have received around same amount which we use to receive previously.The head Engineers whose name Mr.Kale Gupta asked us to give complaint in written,we gave them in written as well as shown them the bills as proof.

                    Then also they asked us to pay the amount otherwise they will cut the electricity.
                    why we suffer for the same if we are innocent, If there is no mistake from our side.Instead we went for their betterment after receiving very less bill from our side we went for changing it.But rather then appreciating they have charged us wrongly. Why we pay extra charges if we are not wrong. It’s a matter of our family reputation in our society what people say.


                    After that our meter bill was continuously remaining same, if MPEB has to do some changes so why people suffer for that, please keep this matter seriously.


                    Now we have objection on the below points:

                    1.We have received the less reading amount only for two months n prior to that the bill amount was correct, we have all the bills with us which proves that we are right.

                    2. After change of meter we have received around same amount bill which we use to receive previously before two months of slow reading.Then also they had not consider that though we have showed them all the bills.

                    3.They had cut the electricity twice when my mother was alone at home.And father was not in town.Due to which we have paid some amount however we are not suppose to pay because we are not wrong.

                    4.Electricity people have asked for some bribe for solving our issue.

                    5.We belong to middle class family we cant afford to pay such illegal amount.But then also we had paid around Rs.8000 due to inconvenience we faced after electricity cut.

                    6.This meter is in the Name of my mother Mrs. Kamla Verma.

                    7.My father had tried many times but he dont have enough time to go again n again for the same issue when he realized that they will not resolve the issue till we gave them the bribe.

                    8.Last month i came back from Pune, i did my MBA from pune and me and my father are together paying my education loan.So this amount matters to us.I was working there but due to these problems i relocated in Bhopal.I am aware of consumer forum and action against the complaints.

                    So please take our issue seriously n please try to take some action against our complaint.

I also have one big point dear reader the time when he had come to take the reading of the meter there was a "POWER FALIURE" then how did he take the reading???.

                      Hi,
                      This is in regards to the K.No.[protected] under the name of Mrs. Vidyawati. A few days ago, we had some issues regarding the old meter that was not taken off by NDPL officers after being checked as the new meter was set up after a complaint was registered by me. Due to which we had to suffer a lot unnecessarily. Thinking not to involve in such legal issues due to lack of time, we paid the said amount of Rs. 7000/- by the High Court. We were advised that the old meter would be taken off in 3-4 days. We paid the amount on Mar. 20, 2010.
                      After 8-9 days, someone came from Vivekanand Puri office and advised that we had to visit the Shakti Nagar office and request for taking off the old meter. Due to lack of time, I could not go earlier but today I went there and came to know I am supposed to visit Rohini office now.
                      My question is, why you have made such a very bad system wherein no one knows anything and the normal consumers are just getting bothered unnecessarily. When everything has been done from my side, why the old meter is not being taken off? Why is a consumer being bothered for without any reason? I can't expect this from NDPL as this is not in the hands of Government anymore now.
                      In the end, I request you to take a step ahead now and take that meter off.
                      Thanks,
                      Saurabh Bansal

                          In kaithal, district of Haryana, almost all the citizens living in Model Town near Jind Road and H.U.D.A. Colony has stopped their meters. and it is heard that electricity department people are also involved in helping them. They don't come to take meter reading installed outside our houses on poles. And when we made requests to take readings of our meters we found that almost all the meters are dead or not working. This is the case in H.U.D.A. Colony. In Model town, near Jind Road and Jakholi Adda people pay Rs 100 as bribe to one who come to check meter.
