Address: No 7/13, KARTHIKAI STREET, BALAMURUGAN NAGAR, ALAPAKKAM, PORUR, CHENNAI, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, 600116

Hi, this is balaraman from balamurugan nagar, alapakkam, porur, which was in the control of tneb porur garden office, yesterday around power supply was stopped at 10.30pm (28/07/19) and today 12.30am (29/07/2019) i have logged an complaint with your 1912 contact no and my complaint ref no is 59 dt:29/07/2019, and also called with some of the number who is working with your organisation [protected], 1st of all he is not responding properly in the same mobile call he is rasing a question against me that, 1. Why you are calling me in this time, 2. What are you doing at the time of power shut down (10.30pm). And suddenly cutter the call, again i have tried slots of time he didn't taking the call. I am really disappointed and got irritated at the time speaking with him. I am paying my hard earned money to you eb for using your services, if i cannot able to get the proper service from your end i have a rights to ask the reason for the power shut down, and you are the answerable, and it's your duty to response to me, that's why your organisation is paying salary to them from our hard earnings. This is seriously undigestable and not acceptable. I am very very disappointed on your people mr. Xxxxx (Cell no:[protected]) at the way of handling me.

This message was sending/sharing in the hope of your organisation to take at least any enquiry for this incident. If really you have any response on the public, at least enquiry him.

    Hi,

    This is to report frequent powercuts at my residence, i am ok with random powercuts, but i am not ok when the power cuts happen at nights, it's hard to explain how i struggle with my kids who has trouble in sleeping because of these power cuts at midnight's and the worst fact is the power is not returned in 1 hour or shorter time, it takes 4 to 5 hours, and it's happening daily, not to mention even in day the power cut is permanent, why i had to live this life like this even paying taxes properly,

    Regards

    Irritated indian

      We are from ward 102 division aminjikarai chennai 600029. We are facing power cut issue daily. The respective people are not responding properly. Even for drizzling rain power getting cut off. Though if its a heavy rain we could bare it. Emergency contact people are very careless of this. Kindly take action on this.

              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.

                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.

                    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
                                  customer

                                      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
