Requesting you to look the matter and let me know so that I get proper solution in this regard. Your co-operation is highly solicited. Regards. Amit srivastava

I am a widow of 65 years old, living alone in my ground floor at 117/7, Kalipada Mukherjee Road, Behala, Kolkata-700008. More than a year ago I applied for a new connection to CESC Ltd. for my ground floor flat, which stands in my name. A primary inspection was also done at my flat and it was decided that my meter will be installed in my balcony which is fully covered with iron grill. But I was denied for the connection because one Mrs, Debjani Ghosh Dastidar, who is the owner of the first floor of the same premises, has not paid her electricity bills since long. On this ground CESC authorities disconnected her line and now they are saying that a new connection will not be provided in my name until the entire dues are paid along with fine. CESC is at liberty to collect the money from Mrs Debjani because she is the defaulter in this case. But I am unable to understand why CESC is punishing me by not providing me new connection in my name. I am not the defaulter. Since last one year I am staying alone without electricity and spending harrowing days and nights. SAROJ SETH

Consumer No. [protected] - ADITYA KANODIA - 7, HAZARI MULL SHAH ROAD BANDHAGHAT SALKIA HOWRAH 711106 on the 19th September, 2014 sudden at about 20.45 the electric supply was shut down. It transpired that supply was uninterrupted partially and was affected partially. Since then several complaints have been made. One of the complain Nos. is [protected] which has been made a little while ago because earlier complains did not evoke any positive action. Shockingly the hotline 1912 is a inefficient station so far as a consumer is concerned. Despite telling the gentleman (name possibly is SK Alo) about the entire situation he kept on answering one and only one reply i.e. SAMAY LAGBE WAIT KORUN which apart he die not have either the status of working or where the fault is or when it is likely to be restored. Though I told him that one phase in the same building is working because part of the supply is operating but to this also his answer was the same SAMAY LAGBE WAIT KORUN. HOW SHOCKING IS THIS ?

Dear Sir My consumer no is [protected], I always pay the bill online in cesc website, but recenty I found your website is changed and in this new website I am not able to pay my CESC Bill. Please can you help and send me email at [protected]@yahoo.com.

Please note that I have been unable to access your web for the past few weeks and so I am unable to my electricity bill. I am outside Kolkata at the moment, so I am unable to go there in person. Please note that, in the past, I have paid my bills online without any problem. Is there a problem with your website? If so, can suggest another alternative other than physically going to your office (since I am not in Kolkata). Thank you. Suranjan De Email: [protected]@yahoo.com

Dear Sir, With due benignity request I beg to lay down the following facts towards the upcoming of huge elecy.bill every month around Rs.1000/- for one year which is impossible to bear by me.

Sir, I am middle class family and my family income is very low and our family has to struggle for making the elecy.payment every month. I therefore request you to please give us reasonalbe amount as per our fixed consumption which is same from earlier. Sir, please revise the bill in less amount which will be bearable to me at time. Hope to receive kind petronage as before from you. Thanking you, Yours Faithfully, Aditya Nath Jha Elder son of Diwakar Jha
