Meter not working and absurd bill

Address: 11/75 BAISHNABPARA 1ST LANE (MAHESH)

My name is Jharna Biswas on the month of May I received a bill of 11110 which was very absurd because we don't get such high bill. I went to check the meter box and found that the meter display was not working. I complained to Cesc and they said the meter reading person was not able to see the reading so he has noted an approx. reading.
which is very un ethical, then I docket a complaint for meter not working and excessive bill...

Incorrect and high bill. No response from CESC

Address: 27 M M Ghosh Road, Post Office Motijheel, Kolkata 700074

My Customer ID is [protected] and Consumer ID is [protected]. CESC could not take meter readings at the end of Sep due to water-logging. CESC sent a bill for Sep-21 (dated 10th Oct) with an assumed 477 units consumed whereas my actual consumption was less than 200 units. Consequently, my bill amount was much higher due to higher price slab. I sent multiple mails [protected]@rpsg.in since then. No response.
