    We have installed on-grid solar power in our house in Madipakkam, Chennai. for the last two readings, the assessor is either not knowing or is not considering that the meter installed is a net-meter. When we say it is a solar net-meter, the person did not even listen. We are paying heavy amount as the assessor is noting down only the usage and not the production. There was an issue like this at the start of the installation and after that it was ok for 1.5 years now. Please do the needful for the refund of the amount paid in accordance with the net reading for the last 2 billing cycles.
    Thanks and Regards,

      Why power cut happens daily for more than 1 hr. It's too bad. As we are in capital of a state, chennai. We get power cuts. Even thought in villages there is no power cut. It's too bad. Ridiculous. Please solve this as soon. As it is (No current cut state) why this happens??? That too we are in centre of chennai. Why this happens??? Now a days its too bad by the government of tamilnadu. Not taking action on this

              Hi,

              Could you please look into this streets located at guindy area (Near by railway stations). I have shifted my home here 3 months back. I have noticed there are frequent shutdown in this area at night time. Its coming back in morning between 9 -10 am. Why its not rectified if there is an issue in short period of time. This is not a first time its happened several time (Approx :5).

              They really need entire night to rectify the issue. Its not tolerable, why can't you rectify this quickly.

                    We have a tough time getting our paid service after several personal interaction and through phone complaints the respective personnel from tneb doesn't seem to be worried about our concern as we have to go again and again calling them over the phone and all they show is lack of progress. We need our services as we find difficult again and again going back to them doing nothing.

                          We are running a printing press in tondiarpet area. We are facing the cable fault in our press very often (Monthly 5 times). When we register the complaint, they are taking 3 days to solve the issue. When we ask the a. E, he is saying there is no resource... When we ask for the permanent solution, he is not properly responding... And time are coming to the work at 11.00am in the morning... I don't think this is the working time for them. We have complained this issue to the department ad and no response from him also as they are linked into the same group. We need a permanent solution for the eb issue in future. Please take up this complaint and solve this issue asap.

                              Appreciate your kind consideration and prompt response on this matter.

                              Thank you

                              Yours faithfully

                                We are been in trouble for more than a month due to voltage fluctuation in our house where high high power consumption electronic items are not working.

We have complained to je also but it s not rectified.
