Mescom — Unsafe power supply

Address:

1/29 P Vaishnavi, Pandubettu, Ambalpady, Udupi, 576103

I live in Pandubettu, Udupi, under Malpe MESCOM jurisdiction. Last week our local transformer blew up, it was replaced, however, they didn't ground the line. I called MESCOM Malpe, registered a complaint, stating there's power leakage, even when the switches are turned off, no neutral supply, mon grounded.

MESCOM MALPE linesman Shankar, and Murugesh, inspected the line claiming it's an internal wiring problem, I got three different electricians to check out house meter, fuses, tripppers and internal wiring. They confirmed, supply is throwing back, it's a line problem, 2- days have passed, we have lost our fridge, our inverter, floodlights all outdoor lights, washing machine, laptop, powerbank, everything. MESCOM linesman are making a joke out of this.

The power supply is still not safe, we have paid an average of 3000 every month for the past 25 years, we don't have AC, no geyser, nobiron, all our lights are led, yet we get such a high bill, we have never defaulted on the bill, and yet this is the kind of power they're supplying. I have lost more than 30, 000 worth appliences, this during a complete lockdown, I can't do anything about it, who will pay for our loss? Not MESCOM, they have our 10000, as security deposit. Such crooks, they are totally apathetic, and couldn't care less about customers.

Typical government job mentality, no matter how bad they are at their job they will never get fired.

They count on it, and purposely act tough to show you who is in charge.

And tax payers keep paying their hard earned money to continue paying MESCOM workers' salary..

And we wonder why India is in such a pathetic state.
