Address: Mgr nagar, Karur, Tamil Nadu, 639116

Im from karur district, vangal, kuppuchipalayam, mgr nagar, . Here there is repeated power cut off, in day time at sundays, and night time at working days, . We are paying the bills properly, by your side, the transmission line comes under coconut trees, due to the broken leaves, the power get disturbed. My request is to put the landline cables to avoid such disruption on power. Our area has such disruption coz of coconut leaves. So u can cary over with underground cables for risky areas right?

    Hi sir, I am from medavakkam Ayyapa Nagar first cross street (next to bhel Nagar).
    I am facing a really bad pathetic service from TNEB medavakkam office whenever there are power cuts. Everyday from 10pm the low voltage scenario starts, and after 11 pm there are power cuts almost each and every day .

    TNEB number is not reachable most of the times, and rarely when getting a chance to speaking to them we ll get a constant answer there is a fault in line. ( Not sure why they are having a faulty line daily by 11 pm ) .

    On June 10, 2019 there was around 10 power cuts in my area, and there is no proper maintainence in power lines .

      Dear Sir,

      Every year after year same issue keeps repeating. The Medavakkam EB service is beyond pathetic! Every day constant power cuts at night multiple times. How is one suppose to sleep during this hot summer? God only knows what is it that they repair so much that power has to be taken everyday! And 99% the EB phone never connects or says temporarily not reachable!

      This needs immediate intervention. We are paying for the power we use. Least is to keep power up and running and not provide such miserable service. Please look into this and pull up the Medavakkam EB work force for such horrible service!

      Regards,

            I have tried multiple times to add consumer number in TNEB site. But i'm able to add so.

            I have cross verified with my EB card as well. I have given correct region and consumer no.
            Still I get same error again and again.

            The account is active too, still i'm not able to add consumer number. It says 'invalid consumer no'

            Please help in resolving this problem.

But they neglected(by system not working, no net connection etc) and finally charged me 629rs. Now again got a bill amount of 960rs. Which they are not giving proper answer and asking to pay. Vengal EB office.

                  Address: Tamil Nadu Electricity Board, 9th Floor, N.P.K. R.R.Maaligai, Electricity Avenue, ANNA SALAI, CHENNAI - 600 002, 600002

                  It is heartfelt to write that I am staying in my newly built own house at Kilpauk area and the house has concrete flooring that is neatly laid in front of the house. Before relishing the happiness of our own house, the TNEB people who came for laying some new electrical cables started to break the concrete flooring in front of my house without any prior intimation.
                  Even though we had requested to start digging beyond where the concrete floor ends, they refused and destroyed the flooring and laid the new wiring from the junction box fixed to the right side of my house running through the front face of the house. In this regard, photograph of the people in the scene of this unlawful/pitiable action is enclosed for favour of information and further necessary action.
                  Moreover, the digging was done too close to the gates and walls of the house which is clearly visible from the photographs. This has affected the strength and stability of the structure to a great extent. We’re currently noticing fire sparks in the junction box & smoke evicting from the wires. This is a clear case of lackadaisical attitude wherein they failed to apply their mind just to facilitate smooth completion of their own job though flawed, compromising on the safety of the building. For safety purposes, this junction box shall be migrated from here to a suitable location as well.
                  It is sorry to say that even after repeated requests to the people and asked for the identity, they refused and started to use vulgar and unparliamentarily words to abuse us. It is heartfelt to see that this incident is condemnable and will also bring down the goodwill of TNEB at this area.
                  It is therefore requested that necessary action may be taken against the alleged staff who were indulged in this issue and necessary repairs may be made or compensation shall be given. I’d also state that in case the reply is delayed or unfavourable, I’ll be compelled to approach the court for further legal action against the staff with TNEB branch so as to get a compensation. Also if the reply is delayed beyond 20 days, it is presumed that your reply is not favour to me and necessary further action will be taken by me against your branch and the staff concerned.

                        Frequent EB power cuts in an ETA township area where 800 families are living... no immediate rectification.

                        Days n nights people in the apartments struggle. Pregnant women, small children lost their healthy lives...this is not the first time, many families from all the states are living here...

                        Basic amenity in a summer that too nowadays is definitely power...

                        But even, in this hot summer, how without considering human lives they could do a powercut...

                        This is in mambakkam area of Kanchipuram
