I am from karkala. Mescom rr no. 7396 mtr. Rdr. Code 8017.in the mid of october the meter board stopped working due to lightening and a complaint given in this regard after 4days. All previous power bills were paid in time including last month bill which was rs. 243. However, this month rs. 133.8 added under arrears and more than that rs. 432 is added under others option. Power bill is only rs. 376. When i contact karkala office no satisfactory explanation given. The meter reader lied to my wife said the bill is only 432. Even though we are using as minimum power as possible a total of rs. 945 is charged this month. I strongly oppose this unethical collection from government led organization and request for justice. Even now new meter has not installed by saying there is no stock. I request you to give justice to the common man and obliged. Last date to pay the bill is[protected]. Awaiting for early response. Thank you.
