Calcutta Electric Supply Corporation [CESC] Complaints & Reviews

We applied for new meter against above mentioned Ref. No. 02/03626/14 on 12.03.14 and against this application as per CESC instruction we deposited Rs. 1550/- against Receipt No. P27 at Taratala CESC office. They supposed to come and installed new meter on 04.06.14. But no one came on that day. Full day I waited for them. On 05.06.2014 again I visited Taratala CESC office and they informed me that they came to our place for installation but they failed to do so because "NO ACCESS TO METER BOARD POSITION". But installation area is a new residential flat and meter place just left hand side of the main entrance. Not only that other flat owners meter also installed there and there is huge space left to install other flat owners meter. My earnest request is please take necessary action and install new meter as early as possible and before installa please inform me by phone one day prior from the date of installation. Thanking you.

Sir, My Electricity Bill (Customer Id - [protected], Bill No. [protected]) for the month of May-14 is beyond possible. The net payable amount of this bill is more than 10 times higher than the average net payable amount for the past 12 months. The appliances and gadgets used by me cannot translate to a bill this high and I have never received such a high electricity bill since the time I got my electricity connection. I am more than confident that there is some problem with this month's billing and would also like to clearly mention that I cannot pay this amount. You are requested to ensure that the problem with this month's billing is rectified at the earliest so that I can pay my bills before the due date, i.e 20.6.14. Regards, Raj Kumar Somani [protected]

Sir, Ref: Customer ID No: [protected]/Bill No: [protected]/Consumer No: [protected]/Consumer type: Domestic. This has reference to my earlier complain dated 11/06/2014.As it remains unattended till date I have to add that I have been frustrated to have received your EXAGGERATED BILL of APRIL, 2014 amounting to Rs. 3010/-(402 units) which compelled me to lodge a complain to your good-self to draw your sharp attention as it is tantamounts to FOUR TIMES greater than that of our natural bills of this hot summer without having enjoyed any additional connection relating to our said meter which is crystal clear from the reading/amount of our previous bills.Though I have, however, managed to pay the said exaggerated/erroneous bill with broken heart/deep pain within due date which appears to have committed/generated due to some mistake at your end, I would urge upon you to kindly look into the matter which may kindly be inspected through the readings/bill amounts(Rupees) of last six months(having averagely consumed 150 units). A very early action is earnestly solicited. Thanking you.

Against consumer no-[protected], i was applied for load enhancement and the load on the same has been processed on 2/06/2014 after noon. But surprisingly i noticed that the new meter shows a abnormal meter reading. Before change of meter my daily unit comsumption about 8 units but all of a sudden it increesed about 12 units in a day when all the gadgets are same. The billing amount will be increased about rs 3000/- per month which in untolerable.
Please do something about it in an urgent basis.

Sir, We have 4 no.s Fans, 6 no.s Lights, 1 no. Refrigerator (whole day), 1 no. cooktop, 1 no. TV, & 1 no. Computer (only night time for max. 2 hrs.), connected at my residence. We have no AC / Geyser. Last time during meter reading time, it was seen as our Analogue Meter (Meter no. 0430928) running too fast. We have not any knowledge how it could possible. The meter reading personnel suggested to apply for a digital meter. We are billed as Rs. 2800/- for May 2014. It placed us astonished for too much high consumption. We can say, we have no knowledge regarding this high consumption. Please look into this matter & change our Analogue meter to a Digital one. Thank, Anjali Das
