      Hi je sir,

      Sir,

      May possibly i draw your kind attention about the frequent breakdowns of electricity in this locality and the wonderful inconvenience it causes to the residents! Ours is not really a new locality. It got electricity connections many years back. It appears, even so, that the engineer in - charge from the sub-station has not correctly checked the installations and in-spite from the new wires and energy appliances used, there are failures regarding electricity several times in a day. Sometimes, the current is turned off for several hours in a very stretch.

      Students suffer greatly and cannot maintain study.

      Thanking you,

      Yours faithfully,
      Murugan

        I am getting tneb consumption charges payment reminders thru' sms regularly for the service connection no.[protected]
        This service connection does not belong to me and i am unnecessarily reminded.
        And also the right person will not be getting these reminders.
        I request you not to send reminders for this particular service connection to my mobile no. [protected] any more. Thanks for understanding.

          Dear sirs
          Our area street lights are working regularly, mostly in off state. On in some days and off in many days. Many times complain launched, but not taking actions. Other areas lights are working regularly in all days. Our area light works for 2 days then 10~15days not working / in off state. Then 2 days on & off, vice versa.
          Many misuses happening. Children & teen girls are finding difficult to go outside due to this darkness around.

          Area : chinnapudur
          Street : west cross st., pandu tailor street

                            Dear TNEB, we are residing in vallakottai Murugan street, keelkattalai. Daily night 4 hours from 9.45 to 1.45 we are not having power. If asked means you are telling that we will receive in 30mins. But still it's not coming. Need to know the reason. Don't think us fool by telling lame reason. No power, no water. Next what? We are taxpayers. The way you people are not supplying power during summer nights are unacceptable.

                            There has been manual powercut done in our apartment Transformer every night around 11 pm and it is switched on by the Pallikaranai EB staff only after 3 to 4 hours, creating a huge hindrance and discomfort for four nights as of now without any reason.

I have complained numerous times but no one comes to attend to fix the issue. I have called and walked physically no. Of times but no resultion and for this o am paying hefty electricity bills and if i do not get proper supply and then they should also not charge me..its cheating.

When i approached Valasarvakam EB office, they replied because of meter faulty reading, this amount has been updated, i have to pay the same. How to correct this wrong entry ?

                                Adding to above, TNEB team replaced a new meter in April 2019, but they have updated their system only in May 2019 stating, meter has been replaced. I would request concern authorities to intervene and resolve this issue.
                                Frequent power cut is happening in Madipakkam, Ram nagar 8thcross street. The transformer here is not in good condition. The wires are often burning. The people here are suffering a lot. Especially the power cut happens in night. Yesterday it was whole night without power supply. Please take necessary action

                                    What is the reason behind the uninformed power cuts of more than 5 hours a day. It is repeating for past two weaks. It seems It's better to stay in my office 24*7. The lower middle class has a only joy of sleeping in nights in their life. But you guys were really frustrating them in every sort of life cycle. No water, no current, then what is the [censored] govt doing in the secretrait. Do anything to stop or inform the people about the low power in- stock . So that they will took precautions on their own without believing the govt..
