    Tneb sc no.[protected], section office ae/etr/ooty, distribution - dasaprakash. This complaint is regarding frequent power disconnection, as the wire in the post gets disconnected during heavy rain and winds. Power gets disconnected only for our residence, and landline calls are not attended to, with most of the time the receiver is kept down, giving an engaged tone. The lineman mobile number also does not work, and there is nowhere you can raise a complaint. Visited the office, and there is no staff at the complaint desk. Request higher authorities to intervene and solve the power problem.

      tneb guduvanchery - power cut

      Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 603202

      We reside in guduvanchery vaikuntam apartments, power cut here is ridiculous. Every day, we face at least an hour of power cut for no reason. When we call the eb office, an old man picks up and does not answer with respect, he says it will come and hangs up the phone or tells us that line fault, it will come. It has been like this for six months l....

      Address: 30, 1st Main Road, MKB Nagar, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600039

      There is an electricity shutdown in mkb nagar, 1st main road from the past 40 minutes... What is the exact issue? When will it resume? The phone number of the local eb station is not functioning. It says that it is out of order. The main eb office says that they have. No update... How do we know about the issue and when can we expect the electricity to resume?

        Hi i am complaining that they are not coming to note reading and if we go to eb office they keep on billing minimum reading or charging as they wish. I have reported many times about this in eb office to come and note reading in meter, they are not doing it repeatedly. I came to know that tneb would charge me more in coming month if this issue goes on they would fine me. So i am raising complaint so that they would note reading every two months and solve the problem.

          Address: A2, Plot 10, Bharathi Street, Dhandeeswaram Nagar, Velcherry, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600042

          Possibly due to rains, power was disconnected due to some issues in dhandeeswaram nagar, bharathi street in some houses, plot#10 onwards on 25th july 2019. Eb representative hadn't attended to the issue, the complaint phone number was attended only once at 7pm, when the lady who picked from velachery eb office said "wait. It'll come" and kept the phone without hearing out fully. Subsequent tries to call were not answered and busy the whole time. It's rude and irresponsible behaviour. Take necessary action. At the time of writing this, power is still not restored. It's been more than 10 hours since the disruption.

                    Since from a week, i am not able to sleep properly because of everyday power cut (Specially at night). After working whole day, everyone needs rest in night and it is difficult to sleep without power. Because of not proper sleep from a week, it is affecting my health badly.

                    From past 2 weeks almost everyday night power cut happens & comes back at early morning.

                    I can understand that fault can occur anytime. Looking at the current scenario, i feel common fault is happening. Its humble request to find the root cause and fix it permanently as soon as possible.

                      Daily there is powercut for more than 10 hours. It keeps happening at regular intervals and difficult to cope with. Please could someone look into this asap. It's been happening daily from past 1-2 weeks. If there was a maintenance happening, it should have gotten fixed with couple of days time. However, this keeps happening exactly around 12.30 am and power comes around early morning 6am. Again goes off by 10am till evening.

                        Dear sir,
                        Today our neighbour had faced some power related issue.
                        Due to that issue they called eb technicians to clear it, they cleared the issue in the same day and it's appreaciable too.
                        But the problem is that they cut some tree's branches to clear the issue. Due to that they cut our landline connection and our internet facility is also blocked. Accidently it happens but while we ask them they didnt gave any proper reply and also they misbehave to us. They told that "that's not their issue, you may take care of yourself" and its hurts me a lot.
                        Kindly do the needful

                        Yours faithfully

                            Dear Sir,

                            My Customer number is [protected], till date i have been paying all my bills on-time and there is no delay or penalty amount paid

                            I was surprised and shocked in seeing the Average Shortfall amount of RS 3020 for the July 2019 bill amount Rs 3463. I'm not sure why i'm getting this Average Shortfall amount and i would request you to review this before my billing period which is on 26th of this month (26th July)

                            Can you please help?

                            Thanks
                            Ashok

                                    Based on my complain posted on 3rd july 2019, saying that tneb meter not working, no display. Tneb people came and checked and they were claiming money for replacing the meter. Raised complaint in tangedco on line complaint. The meter got replaced on 7th july 2019 but tangedco is claiming money for the same. I want response for the earliet complaint and not acceptable to pay money for the meter. Please get me clarify and how come consumer responsible for the meter cost. It is not acceptable. They have taken the faulty meter along with them. Not sure whether meter is at fault or not.
                                    However i am not convinced to pay for the meter
