Kesco Complaints & Reviews

This is to inform that we are facing fluctuations in voltage during night or very low voltage due to which not even the fans or even a night bulb works properly which results in our discomfort & we are not able to sleep peacefully. This problem has occured multiple times since the beginning of summers (from March) & has caused us a lot of trouble.
I am facing the mentioned issue even right now when I am filing this complaint & I & my family members are not able to sleep well. I am pretty sure that other residents of my locality are also facing inconvenience because of this issue. I request you to please look into the matter.

Hello. I am a resident of Harbansh Mohal, Kanpur, U.P. We've been facing low voltage issue in our locality from quite some time. And this is mainly in the night only. Please do something about it as in summer, it is really difficult to survive without cooler and a.c.

We got a new meter connection last year in March 2021 (Genus Prepaid Meter, Load = 3 kw) for the apartment (A2-6/95 KDA Residencies, O -Block Kidwai Nagar, Kanpur).

1.) We have recharged that meter couple of times in a span of 1 year (total
= 6500/- till date). First time recharged for 1500/- which lasted around 3
to 4 months, second time for 1000/- and the balance displaying as 350/-
only, lastly...

I recharged prepaid meter with 1000 and 1000 rupees for two times. money has been debited but there is no voucher code when i click on the link provided what to do? I need a refund for it. I called complaint customer care number no one received it. I even mailed it but there was no message back. My prepaid meter hasn’t been recharged due to the unavailability of voucher code but the money has been debited from my bank account

Hello Sir / Madam,

I received the last electricity bill for march month as below.

Bill date: 15-Mar-2021
Bill Amount : 1258
Bill Units: 171

As usual, I had made the above payment online. So, no amount was pending.

The same bill date now updated on 8 April, 2021 with the new amount.

Bill date : 15-Mar-2021
New bill amount : 28268
New bill Units : 13238

This is completely unethical and wrong behavior. We are facing unnecessary trouble because of that.

I request senior officials of Kanpur KESCO to kindly intervene in to this and correct the glitch immediately.

I had purchased a flat in the sales tax road, kanpur approx 1 year back from mrs. Anu kushwaha (Builder - rama group),

Till now we are facing electric meter issues and informed her several times but no strict and judicious action had been taken.

Electric meter connection is not given as promised - in-spite from temporarily connection - lights are given to sub-meter and money is charged for it.

Government had passed ruling that there will be separate connection for each multi-user but her employee rishi told today that he will install single connection and then distribute the load. Now, he is configuring the same and not hearing our complains regarding multi-point connection.

They had put even govt rulings and jurisdiction at stack, and seems that they will do whatever they want.

I had already applied for a new domestic connection of 5 kva on 8 sept, 2018 and send several emails (To email id's :[protected]@kesco.co.in, [protected]@gmail.com) asking for the status information but received no response till yet.

Also, visited kesco for details - they sometime say:-
1. We don't have smart meters for multi.
2. Some documents are pending from your builder side.
3. Your builder haven't applied for any multi point connection, he had applied for single connection but now single connection cann't be given and he is not applying for new multi-pointy connection.

Note: now the single point connection has been provided and is well set for builder - how??

4. Who are you - you should talk to builder regarding this as we know builder not you.

After hearing such meaning less reply - finally concluded that there is something going on among them - so finally mailing you my concern.

Please help us in resolving our issue because now we are loosing hope that there will any improvement till your good offices intervention.

Hope for a prompt and judicious action from your side.

This is to inform that while paying the current bill of rs. 5757.14 using the credit card xx5007 done at kesco gateway on 15-may-18, the bill amount has been deducted twice from the account.

Please refund the amount that has been deducted twice urgently.

Sub: high voltage problem in our building
We wish to inform you that high voltage problem (More than 255 volt) is happening in our building bearing address 117/354 l block navin nagar kakadev since 6 month back. There is a single point connection with three phase. A transformer was installed by your office for single point connection with 54 kva load since two years back. Direct line of 11000 are falling on transformer. There are no tapping in transformer so that the voltage of 220 volt may outcome from transformer.
Many of electric equipments have burnt due to this issue in several times. The blast in transformer have also occurred several times in our building which cause fear amongst us. We have also informed this issue to line man and other officer of your office but no corrective action was taken from your side.
Now we are again requesting you to take corrective action to reduce the voltage in proper mode so that the loss and fear may reduce and we could live properly. We are paying all the dues timely then why we all are suffering from high voltage problem? Please also compensate the loss of electric equipments amounting rs 5000 to the connection holder.
Please take corrective step to solve our high voltage issue.
