        Since march '17 till september'18 average bill value (For the customer ids [protected] & [protected]) is coming in the range of rs 1800 /monthly.

        My mother lives in a single room, ac is not functional, washing machine not getting operated for a year.

        She is extremely averse to cold and vigilantly monitors to ensures there is no excess consumption of electricity.

        All efforts to minimize electric consumption and subsequent cost has all gone in vain.

        Repeated request to address this problem has gone in vain.

              This is to inform you that from last 5 to 6 months i am charging excessive electricity bill, which is incorrect. As per my previous months meter reading my consumption unit was also less, but suddenly the bill raised to an excessive amount. I think there is positively a problem in your meter reading or else my meter is not functioning properly. Kindly send your engineer to look into this matter and send me a correct bill as per my actual consumption at the earliest so that i can make payment of my pending bill of this month. Kindly do the needful at the earliest.

                It is very unfortunate that we had a interruption of power supply in our area for 35 minutes in the midst of saptomi.

                Please let me know that who will compensate for this valuable 35 minutes of the festival in my locality. I am really shocked with the service of cesc during the festival period.

                As we are the valuable consumers we look forward to the uninterrupted supply of power during durga puja.

                      Please note that there was an error in the monthly electricity bill for september-2018. You have shown unit consumed as 490 units in september-2018. Where as i have checked (On 9/10/2018 at 8 pm) in the meter box that i have consumed only 261 units[protected] as on 9/10/2018 at 8.00pm.
                      I have taken photograph of the said meter for verification purpose. Besides my monthly average unit consumption is 240 units.
                      My unit consumption in june-18 : 325 unit, in july-18 : 206 unit and in aug-18 : 190 unit which comes an average of 240 units.

                          This is not a complaint. I read few complaints against cesc here and found them so cute because my residence electricity is provided by wbsedcl and at least 4hrs on an average everyday we have power failure.

                          All you people are blessed to have cesc as your utility service. I wish someday wbsedcl shuts down forever and let cesc take over in barasat areas.

                            I paid bill for the month of july 2018. The transaction was being processed but then the browser showed that server timed out. I got a message that rs. Xxxx has been deducted from my account regarding cesc. The next time i checked in to cesc, it is not showing the latest bill that i paid now. I think that the bill is not paid and next month i got green bill but the money has been deducted. Please help.

                              Dear sir,
                              We like to draw your attention to the following facts happened in 2016. We were immensely obliged for your co operation and helping attitude. We did not face any discomfort in 2017-winter too.
                              But now we observe that street-lamps are being switched off at 5am on main road (Lalkuthi water-tank to rashbehari avenue-connector). We have been continuing our morning walk throughout the year at same time mentioned in 2016. Our age are increased by 2yrs from 2016. Some are over 70yrs-one/two are even above 85yrs.
                              May we request you to pl keep the lamps glittered up to 5.15am for the period october, 18 to march, 19 on the main road only so that we may comfortably walk at the dawn-time.
                              Today, we observe that street lamps at new ballygunge were switched off at 5.20am
                              Hope you will realize our difficulties and consider our requests favorably.
                              Regards

                                Since last 6 months, i am receiving not payable electricity bill. The use of electricity had been minimal but 'not payable' amount for 6 months is absurd. Please look into the matter why my meter is not being read?
                                I paid bill last in the month of february 2018....

                                Hi
                                Its been our great previledge to have great company "cesc" in kolkata which controls the electric supply to the most part (Almost every part) of kolkata. My experience with this was awesome in burrabazar area (Central kolkata). I had recently moved to north kolkata (Dakshineshwar, alambazar) under kamarhati regional office, and the service provided by this cesc is really pathetic. I cant believe that its the same company that i had at my previous residence place. From last month (September, 2018) there is frequent load shedding (Once in every 2 days). And it hurts the most when it happens during night as it totally ruins our sleep. And not even that, the load shedding continues for 2 hours or sometimes more than that. I personally believe that cesc is a great company and has the capability to fullfill the requirements of whole of kolkata but still in this part (At alambazar, dakshineshwar) they are not doing as per their reputation. I dont know whose fault is this, but if this is not the fault of the higher management of cesc then i want to attract their attention in this matter because this may brings disrepute to your well (And most probably the best in kolkata) functioned organisation.
