My house meeter is not working since Oct 2020. I raised my first complaint at Manapakkam EB Office, Chennai. But after two weeks, they said, the complaint letter is missed. Gave complaints twice again in person at branch. Meeter is not replaced. So I raised complaints tnebnet website itself. But the complaints are closed by stating "Person will check". But no one cam e and fixed it. Every time the EB bill was generated. On enquiring about EB bills, "average of last two cycles is used to generate the bill". But this time, May 2019 bill is put which is Rs.2704. We do not use electricity of that much since we are new tenant from Nov 2019 only. Please help to replace the eb meeter.

I spoke to AE of Manapakkam EB and AEE of Ramapuram sub division. Their behaviour is also not good when I asked the status of complaints too.

I have followed up with them more than 2 months. But they are not responding properly. So I dropped the follow up and registering here.

      Hi Respected Sir/Mam,
      I could notice a incorrect "previous assessment amount billed" in my current May 2021 charges and huge difference between previous cycle amount and current amount, used unit.
      Last assessment cycle March 2021 we used 210 units and this assessment they have give a unit used of approximately 830 units.Request you to revisit and generate the correct billing amount .
      My TNEB Service No:[protected]

      We know due to pandemic COVID situation TNEB uses/generates "previous assessment amount" to current cycle, but this May 2021 charges for service number[protected] is totally incorrect with previous amount so please do the needful to correct the bill amount accordingly.

      Yours Sincerely
      Priyanka.M

        Sir, This month we consumed 488 unit but in our eb zonal they are saying us to pay the last year's may (may[protected] rs) as this month's (may 2021) . We are in financial crisis due to lockdown. We are not able to pay the large amount. I have attached the eb reading with this complain.
        19/3/[protected]
        20/5/[protected]
        If we pay last year's ( may 2020) means we have to pay 722 rs more than the actual amount.

                          This is regarding EB Consumer numbers[protected] and[protected]. The readings for the month of April - May were not checked by the EB officials and a self estimated amount has been uploaded which highly exceeds the actual readings. I have attached pictures of the actual EB meter readings for your perusal. I would like to get the whatsapp number / Mail id of the EB official to whom i should send pictures of the Eb readings in case of his inability to come directly and check.
