Re: Consumer ID [protected]

This is to inform you that I had received a SMS on 02/12/2016 in the registered mobile number that the meter was scheduled to be rad on 04/12/2016. However, nobody arrived on the date informed, instead your personnel reached the said premises on 05/12/2016 and could got access to the meter. I am to inform you that nobody remain in that premises on any working day during 8.00 AM to 8.00 PM. Hence without proper prior intimation it is not possible to provide access to the meter. You may please guide alternative way so that the meter reading can be done without any hindrance.

    Your SMS in my mobile([protected]) shows that I had consumed 491 units for the month Nov'2016, which is totally a baseless, false statement. Today(03/12/16), I had myself checked & read the meter reading showing only 215 units after comparing with my previous (last) bill.So, how can u predict such a forgery units consumed? You can verify any day anytime with my complaint.

      Respected sir/madam,

      Subject :- disconnection request on ref of today's email

      "online application for amendment in mailing address in respect of consumer no. [protected]".

      I want to draw your attention here that i have an objection to the mail, attached herewith, regarding the amendment of mailing address of the bill of the consumer no.[protected], as i did not ever applied for such an action.

      The consumer pronab kumar banerji had expired on 15th feb, 2015 and his wife on 18th sep 2016.

      Till that date of her life i used to pay the bill of her house electricity consumption that is not needed further, for which i would request you to take necessary action to disconnect the line, instead of amending any mail address, that may be applied by any fraud applicant, who would want to occupy pronab kr. Banerji's undivided property.

      I would be thankful to you if you kindly take necessary step to disconnect the line.

      * i will not liable for any illegal activity done by this consumer no.- [protected] / customer id - [protected]

            Consumer no. [protected] connection in the name of sk ashraf ali

            Dear sir,

            I regret to state that the electricity bill for my residence is beyond the expectation. We only 4 people stays in the residence out of which i remain outside for office work throughout the day, we don't use ac since winter season and only one fan is been used. We fail to understand what is the reason of showing such high consumption and high charges.

            You need to send your staff for inspection of my meter or check at your end how such high consumption is being carried on my meter. There is some problem with your meter. This need to be enquired at higher lever.

            Regards

                    From starting time my electricity bill has come about Rs. 3000/- per month up to April 2016, but from April 2016 to till date the bill has come about Rs. 7000/- to 8000/- per month. It is surprise to note that why this abnormal bill has come to my residence at Parnasree Pally, Behala, Kolkata :- 700 060, W.B.
                    I have very much confirm that some illegal taping has been done from my meter or power line so that excess meter reading has come in my consumer meter reading.
                    It is requested to you please check the line immediately and confidentially so that the illegal connection may cot in hand and punished by state administration.

                            Hi,

                            This is Sourish Sinha here. I have raised couple of complaints ([protected], [protected]) with CESC regarding worst condition of the Electric supply piller.
                            I already complained that the Electricity supply piller(infront of my house) is standing with almost broken base and it could be completely broken at any time. CESC persons visited the place and understood the situation few ddays back and agreed that this should be rectified very soon for avoiding any accident, though no one is fixing the problem and this is now long pending.
                            I have already raised couploe of complain though no one bothered to che3ck this out.
                            Calcutta Electric Supply Corporation [CESC] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.

                              I have no any; but there is a connection of meter on my mobile number in your location.. and every month a bill confirmation comes through messages to me..
                              No problem. But the bills are not paid.. because bill gradually increasing and became beyond 15, 000.
                              Since 12 months I receiving these message as [protected][protected]...

                              Why like this.. who is that not paying the amount on bill ... and why registered on my number..

                              I already complaint on a received call from you 4 months ago.

                              I think this should be considered and resolve soon.

                                  Sir,
                                  Please note that my consumption shown in your bill is gradually increasing every month. Consumption of the same months this year vis a vis last year shows a massive jump. My consumption is the same. I have not added any new appliance for the past 2 years, yet consumption shown in your bills is always increasing.
                                  Please look into this matter urgently and do the needful.

                                      I have bought the flat in oct 2015. The promoter arranged for individual connection with the help of an agent. The agent mistakenly entered the pin as 700099. But the correct pin is 700094. I brought the matter to the notice of cesc through an application. Proper action was not taken by cesc against application dated 25/02/2016 vide docket no. 1168651, dated 26/02/2016. Sufficient supporting document was attached with the application. The necessary correction may please be executed as early as possible.

                                        Consumer no : [protected], customer id : [protected], electricity bill for 09/16, due date on 04/11/16, amounting to rs.4540 (Net)
                                        Dear sir,
                                        The electric bill that i received against the captioned customer id for the month of september, 2016 appears to be much on the higher side. The bill of earlier months sometimes also seem to be not compatible with my apparent consumption, but in this month it appears to be too high for a nuclear family like us. There may be a scope of mistake somewhere either in meter reading or some slippage somewhere which needs urgent verification. I appeal to the concerned authority to take suitable steps in no time to substantiate the bill amount which is very difficult to be paid. Is it that due to festive season the puja committee electricity consumption is being distributed among common poor people like me.
                                        Please do the needful.
                                        Thanking you,
                                        Yours faithfully,
