Address: 55. Sathanoor & P.O., Koothanallur Taluk

Dear sir/madam,

I am residing in thiruvarur district, koothanallur taluk, 55. Sathahoor village, which is under vadapathimangalam eb circle. My eb payment is scheduled in bi-monthly. I don't know the reason for not taken reading in dec-19 & feb-20, then come to known through neighbor as visited their home. Then i visit vadapathimangalam eb office and told them about this and paid some amount in advance. Apr-2020 not visited in my village due to covid-19, but i paid some amount in advance to avoid any disconnection. Jun-2020 took reading as meter usage 1091 and amount rs. 3901.

While there is no mistake from me, why i should pay these much amount?. The actual reason for high amount, meter reading not took last 3 bi-months and accumulated all 3 bi-month meters in jun-2020 calculation and charged in different tariff.
I enclosed bill history for your ready reference, kindly review and take appropriate action

    Residing as a tenant for the past two years in the above given following address.During this pandemic situation, as per the rules of the Tamil nadu government everyone are particularly supposed to stay at home.When there is so many consequences to be faced.
    There is this unexpected panic circumstances arises due to Tamil Nadu Electricity Board(TNEB).
    Because of the abnormal or intentional mistake the EB bill statement shows Rs.6138 for the month of may i.e:-17/06/2020
    But the past assessment bills was
    18/04/2020-Rs.590
    18/02/2020-Rs.590
    17/12/2020-Rs.530
    18/10/2019-Rs.650
    Eventhough we stay at home maximum to the end, the EB amount bill can be raised Rs.1100/-only as we consume only less electricity usage. But we received bill amount to be paid for 10times the actual billing statement for the month of MAY which is certainly abnormal to the current covid situation.
    Expecting the compensation for this act of mistake or misleading the metre reading or Mischief or Breach of Trust.
    This is looting the money from the public at this quarantine and the TANGEDCO need to take steps for this complaint which shouldn't repeat again or by next month. But we need the response/answer for this rigorous act or intentional act on slang the money from us.

      Dear Sir / Madam,

      My Flat in SIS Marakesh, Urapakkam in locked from the start of COVID-19 Lockdown from end of March 2020 and no power is consumed.

      But in February and April, we were charged Rs 3562 and was paid.

      But in June, I received intimation that meter is defective, changed to new one and charged with Rs 7654

      Since we are not in the flat for the last three months, there is no power consumption and due to lockdown we were unable to intimate in writing the meter fault. Actually we should be charged bare minimum.

      Even now you can check in my flat EB meter, it will be zero consumption, hence please revise the bill to the bare minimum and update in EB payment portal since I am paying online only.

      Service No :[protected]

      with Regards,

            I'm a resident of nedugula village. For the past 3 days there is no power supply in my house. We called the line man (Name: siva - in charge of nedugula electricity). I've been calling him for the past 3 days and informed about the situation. There is a wire problem in the post that directs electricity to my house. I'm not able to work for the past three days as i'm working from home. And there are women and small kids who are suffering. I request the concerned authority to take severe action against the line man who is very irresponsible and as i called him several times he's not answering my calls. Please take action against this.. My house sc. No:143. Nedugula village.

                Government is encouraging to pay electricity bill in online. It is difficult for us to come and pay directly in this pandemic condition. My eb ill is not updated for this month. It is showing you don't have any bill to pay. Please update my eb bill. I contacted few of the tangedco persons, they are are telling to come directly to solve issues. Then what is the use of digital platform
                Hence i request you to take necessary action immediately

                Thanking you

                      Dear sir/madam,

                      I dhandapani (Tneb no. [protected]), residing at 3-80, kamaraj nagar, kasinayakkan patti, tirupattur dt, kunichi post - 635602.
                      This is regarding the eb person wrote down wrong meter reading for last 3 bill. We got same reading for last 3 bill (210 units) & bill was rs.260. Because of that current bill we got (1420 unit) suddenly amount was rs.6072. The bill amount is too high and we cannot pay this as per the the eb says. The eb person finally collected my eb card & he said i will adjust it which he would keep it in credit and adjust in next subsequent bills. But still now nothing is done.

                      Please kindly let me what action can be taken. It is totally disgusting writing wrong meter reading making us to pay more amount than usage.

                      Expecting kind advice

                        I got eb bill for the month of apl / may'2020 amounted rs.8508 and unit recorded as 1830 which is totally wrong. My usual consumption for two months about 320 units only (Check previous records) and my tenant was vacated even 31st of may'2020. So, the units consumed only for april'2020 month and it will be less than 320 units. I have attached my bill copy for your immediate reference. Kindly recheck and correct the right billing to pay online.

                        Awaiting your early reply.

                                    Respected sir,

                                    The commercial meter[protected], the actual reading showed on 30/06/2020, was 3953. Instead the person from eb noted down as 5300. We have informed the person concern on the same day, in turn he assured that he will make the necessary corrections.
                                    As on today the correct calculation of reading is not shown in your website.
                                    Please do the needful.
