Address: 14/29. FIRST MAIN ROAD HINDU COLONY. ULLAGARAM

Dear Sir,

This brings to your notice that, this month 11th Dec 2020 your E.B department personnel came and took reading, by mistake or oversight he took wrong reading. That is he mentioned as 12860 as the reading shown meter reading. On 17th Dec I received the bill, for Rs.5146 for the unit consumed 1010. I was shocked, immediately I went and saw the meter reading and took a photograph, (which I attached here with) the reading on 17th Dec 2020 is 12666 only, which means he noted 194 units higher side as on 17th Dec 2020, if we calculate 11 units per day we consumed.

So the reading is probably 12666-66= 12600 If the reading is 12600 so[protected]= 750units. Consumed.
Accordingly, the bill has to be raised. Kindly check &
Please do the needful

    Address: Devikapuram, Tiruvannamalai district.

    Recently one of the step down transformer got damaged in my area, only two TNEB helpers came to fix it and notified (with no necessary transport or man power to lift the transformer) windings are blowout so they wanna rewind the core we helped them physically and arranged our own transport to help them.
    Our area had two transformers on same pole to support the load, TNEB helpers came and removed the connection to the working one to make us pay Bribe to them.
    And we are affected with irrigation to our agricultural lands.

    When we are paying the bills and tax to the government why should we pay bribe to Helpers of TNEB.

    They are asking to pay Rs 300 for each agricultural pumps.

            REMINDER.
            I have already made the following complaint on 8.12.2020 and the same is yet to be resolved.

            "I have made a payment of Rs.650/- to tamilnadu electricity board on 26.11.2020 vide transaction id[protected] using bharat billpay in bhim app. But the transaction was not successful. However the said amount was debited in my bank account. The amount is not re-credited in my bank account even after the lapse of ten days. I request that the amount may be credited in my bank account without further delay"

            Now it is more than 20 days of my filing the complaint. Please recredit the amount of Rs.650 immediately to my bank account.

            The failed transaction dated 26.11.2020 regarding payment of Rs.650 to Tamil Nadu Electricity Board made through Billspay in BHIM app is yet to be re-credited in my bank account.

            I have already made two complaints in this regard. It is very much unfortunate that no action to resolve the issue is taken so far.

                Dear Sir

                Today our flat power got disconnected due to non payment of bill by tenant and subsequently paid and connection. We got abnormal billing of more than Rs.12, 000.

                But our tenant noticed that, when disconnected our line and another flat power also gone down and after payment both the flats got power.

                We are suspecting another flat owner knowingly connected to our service line and taking electricity, we are requesting to take immediate action.

                                Hi Sir/Madam,

                                After getting our new service number, i am unable to sign-in to my TNEC login. While trying to reset my login credentials, it show "Invalid Consumer number !" error on validation of "31534754" or "[protected]" new or old consumer numbers.

                                Thanks and regards.
