      Dear Valued Customer, ,

      Consumer No.[protected]
      Meter No. 6173850 Cal.Seq. 01

      Reference to your query dated 06/08/22.

      On examining the meter(s) at site on 11/08/22, it was found to be working within the permissible limits of variation.The reading on that date was 17236.

      From our records we find that our bills were tendered on actual registration of the meter and the reading at the time of inspection confirms that July, 2022 account bill was in order.

      In view of above, the bill(s) stand payable in full by you.

      We stand committed to our spirit of co-operation and service to you.

      Thanks,
      CESC Limited

        Also want to know the procedure of changing the main power box from one place to another, for that what needs to be done.

                      Every day KMC does a tree trimming in the area till 5pm and they ask CESC to cut the power.
                      No member of locality is informed.
                      My Mother is a patient and it is very inconvenient for her.

But it is now become a habit, i don't know what is the reason why always our power Phase always cut . Please do look after the matter we have old patient and kids in home who suffers for this power cut .

                                    Sir,
                                    CESC CUSTOMER ID - [protected]
                                    I am writing a complaint in regards to the high electricity bill i.e., units consumed 292 units in the month of May'2022. Bill amount - Rs 1980 and completely unbelievable.
                                    I know that I have not been using more electricity than before and I have not been using any power-consuming large electrical appliances particularly in this month, not even last year. Such abnormal bill I have never seen earlier against this abovesaid customer ID.
                                    Therefore, I think there may be a problem with my electricity meter or taken faulty reading by the meter reader.
                                    I request you to depute someone from CESC to inspect it as soon as possible and correct this bill. It's very difficult to pay this bill and request the urgent correction in this regard.

                                    Regards,
                                    Mr. Somenath Mazumdar
