Hubli Electricity Supply Company Limited [HESCOM] Complaints & Reviews

I had paid my electricity bill rs 572.00 online on 06.02.2015 with transaction id bcrp[protected] and receipt id[protected] which results payment successfull. But in my account statement instead of debiting rs 572.00 i got rs 577.62 debited to my account and i got receipt for only rs 572.00. So the difference of rs 5.62 is an excess payment i made to hescom. Who is responsible for this and who will refund this excess amount to me ?

The above meter was installed during January 2012. It is an L & T make new meter. Since few months I am getting huge bills ranging from Rs.104/- to 708/- . This month Sept.2014, the meter reader has not submitted the bill saying that there is no consumption. However, the residence is a single bed room house with only two persons living in it.The electricity consumption is not so much as reflected in the monthly bills paid by us so far. It is surprising that the meter is not working properly and gives indifferent readings every month which is causing lot of inconvenience to us and we are loosing huge sum unnecessarily towards electricity bills payment. Hence, I request you to please arrange to test the meter immediately and rectify the problem or else replace the meter with new one. Since the matter is urgent and serious please respond to my request on priority immediately.

Last month I recieved a bill for Rs. 1, 350/-, when I asked ESCOM to please check the bill again the person rudely asked "Do you have Bulbs, TV, AC in your house", I replied "Yes". He said "Phir itna bill to ayega hi". Before installing the AC(Invertor Technology, 1 ton) my bill was 700-800 MAX and as I stay in Belgaum, Karnataka, I do not have to use the AC a lot. So this month I did not turn on my AC even once, as its monsoon, just to see how it goes. My bill is again Rs. 1, 341/-, I do not understand this. It is just two people in the house and we go to work on the weekdays. How can you hand me a bill for 1341?

Every time complain is given a couple of hescom staff comes to the spot, works for 15 to 20 minutes with all temporary style and goes off. We have requested them n number of times to repair or replace for permanent solutions, they give some excuses and ran away. At night today 9-oct-13 11.25AM, all of a sudden short circuit happened and heard a big sparkling sound and all current went off. After repeated complaints over phone we have not received any solutions and this transformer is just corner to my plot and in future due to your negligence something goes bad to my family or any passenger passing through the transformer, i will call for the news channel and raise the issue. Within 2 to 3 days if we didnt get any response from your end, we will take the photograph and give it in a news paper

I would like to bring your kind notice that the electric meter provided by HESCOM is not compliance with the general standard and its speed is high compare to others town around our district. .Since last 10 Years The Residents of Bhatkal feel uncomfortable and inconvinience due to gradual rise in thier bills. We would like to check these electrical meter under the survelleince of consurmer court.
Please help us to proceed with our complain to solve this problem .
