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..

      There is a uninformed frequent powercut daily for more than 5 hours in Madipakkan area. For what reason they are shutting down the power for these periods we don't know. And there is no response regarding this issue from the any TNEB Officials. There is more difficulties in getting up for the next day due to this issue and the students are getting more suffocated for the next day. So, please i request the higher officials or government to take immediate actions regarding this matter.

      Regards,
      Surya.

              Address: Jawahar hussain khan 2nd street, 600014

              Sir
              There are frequent power cuts in jawahar hussain khan 2nd street, Royapettah, chennai - 600014. Either they don't attend the call or talk irresponsibly. The same place is dug and the weak cable is joined to fix the problem temporarily every time, after the suffering of 14 long hours. (Mid night to 2 P.m). When asked about why they don't replace the cable with a better thick one, the higher officials and the minister of EB of AIADMK is blamed for not providing the fund. My question is why are they collecting electricity charges and deposits?
              Now out of frustration we people of the affected streets have decided to go for RTI and take legal action against EB, if they don't give us permanent solution. Hope at least one duty bound officer from EB would take immediate action.
              (Copies are sent to all higher officials for future references and proofs.)

                    I am an advocate staying at venkatesa perusal 2nd street Madipakkam. Our area witnesses power court for more than 4 hours during night from 10 PM. Not able to reach the ae office since its busy all the 5 hrs the power is cut. What is the reason behind power cut. How are students and working people will be able to gear up for the next day. There is no single responsible person to attend calls and rectify the same. Shame on tneb and its officials who enjoy uninterrupted services at their residence leaving the ordinary consumers on lurch

When I asked the concern person, he said the tariff is LM61(Building work usage) that’s why, but as per my usage and environment it supposed to be LA1A(HOME USAGE). Building work also was not done for last 13 month, then how could the concern department has raised the bill for 93488.Suddenly they are saying this is Building work usage charge from[protected] to till date without any intimation to me. As per rule and instruction, they should inform me 18 month before right? Why should I pay this much of amount? People who are all in the department not giving proper explanation and not even respect also I am from lower middle class family, I can’t bear this much of amount. Please take necessary action and do the needful.

                            Respected Sir,

It was 24hrs of cut from Saturday night 10pm to the next day. Saturday(15.6.19) night again it was cut and today(Sunday) it is cut again.

                                I am staying in VOC street, Redhills. Daily morning and evening frequently power cut in my area. Without a proper reason they shut down the power for every 2 hours. At least we can adjust this atrocity in day time. At night, power cut happening at every 2 hours for 30min. This line connects with main road so this should be work ASAP. But they are not giving a proper response and work lethargic. Many office goers, school & college students are there in this area. They are suffering with these frequent power cut at night time without getting a proper sleep.
                                Low voltage- usually we are getting 180 voltage input daily. Sometimes it lows down to 120 to 130.. because of these low voltage AC and fridge not working properly. Many electronic appliances not working. Kindly take this thing seriously and act on it. We are suffering a lot frequently power cut at night time..consider this complaint and act on it. This will help many people in this area. Thanks

                                      There is frequent power failure in santhoshapuram, Ramar Street, for the past five days at night between 12am and 2am. It's very difficult to manage during this time especially with kids and elders in this hot climate.
                                      It's very uncomfortable, spoiling every routine for kids and elders.

                                      It's really disappointing that these kinda failures occur during hot climate.

                                      Kindly take strict action and ensure that there is no power failure in the near future.

                                      The worst management of TNEB, frequent power cuts in Pallikaranai especially in night times. Can't able to sleep and get ready to office in next day.

                                      Please make privatization of EB so that proper management will be taken place.

                                      TNEB never forget to collect payment every 2 months.
