        One of the worst website in the world.. Thats why people working there also seems to be useless... They know nothing... If you people don't know how to fix website issues, then please make it private... So that we can expect good service... Already tneb is running on huge loss... Still goverment borrowing and borrowing and borrowing and running these sorts o[censored]seless organisations... Very poor...

          Previously tneb electrician taken meter reading for the ground floor but they didn't taken meter reading for first floow. Seems like some meter problems. I was not available for around 2 weeks in home for this billing cycle. Today i email notification from tneb says that billing of 2242rs. Its really excess billing. Kindly look into this problem as soon as possible.

            I received by email tneb bill dated[protected] lfor the month of september 2019 for inr 125 on october 1, 2019.

            When i went to pay the bill, i, a senior citizen and having no other income, was shocked, dismayed and totally taken aback when i saw a total demand against this bill, for a sum of inr 70, 095. This includes a demand of rs. 68, 222 with a description “average shortfall” without any precedence or warning or notification in all these ten years or more of service.

            This part of tamil nadu we have all been hit by drought and serious shortage of water since a long period owing to natural force majeur calamity of failed rainfall

            For a very extended period, our bore well has dried up and the motor was not operable at all and there has been no consumption of electricity for farm activities. We are all eagerly waiting for rains, so that ground water would get recharged and we will be able to cultivate our farm and use the motor and earn our livelihood.

            As it is we are under great loss and tneb is adding fuel to fire and our woes. Can the government withdraw all such unfair claims so that government can help us from mental tension and sleepless nights.

                  Without meter reader taking meter reading despite i was in my home, he has uploaded my last bill amount for rs 10096, for 1760 units.. This time the units consumed is very less. The meter reader's device was faulty so the meter reader did not come to my house or take any reading. This is really great injustice to the consumer charging them unnecessarily with huge payment. I want the reading to be taken and correctly billed.

                            We are staying in Vanila apartments in Kazhipattur near Padur. We are facing power cut issues everyday especially during night time. People with small kids are suffering a lot. For school and office goers it will be difficult to stay all-night without sleeping in between mosquitoes.

                                  Why we need to pay that extra amount Rs.3727?
                                  We've raised complaint already regarding meter not working to TNEB by June - 2019.
                                  To online and Kodaikanala EB office directly by written.
                                  But there is no action taken still against that.
                                  Now they've charged this extra amount apart from our bill amount.
                                  Please make sure the bill amount to be paid was Rs.5778.
                                  We've only 10 days left to pay the bill amount.
                                  Kindly do the needful to change the meter also.
