            East tambaram nammalvar street, first cross from moovar street. The new pole that is replaced recently is in dangerous state that can fall anytime and the wires are hanging low touching vehicles. Complaint made several times to the office and the foreman is arrogant and not ready to attend the problem. Once they came and kept a stone in the base. The pole has to be fixed firmly in the ground which the eb persons are refusing to do. The nearby house is in danger if the wire is cut it will touch the gate which goes fatal.

                        Address: Chennai, Tamil Nadu

                        Respected sir/madam,

                        This is to bring to your notice that we have been living in a flat for the past couple of years and 2 houses out of these 8 houses in the flats are not approved. This is built and sold to 1 individual and the other one is taken control by the building owner's relatives. All the other 6 houses which are approved are occupied.

                        I personally would please the respective departments to take action and stop electricity as it has been procured by illegal means through tneb for many years now.

                        My eb reading is close to 19 units per day
                        The unapproved house meter records 5 units a day with 24 hours ac

                        My average meter consumption and per my meter says 21 units per day even when no one is at home.

                        The foreman recommended by the ae says that their experience is more and whatever the foreman says is right in terms of connection. They had tried to take a load and confirmed that bill will be so much.

                        I was also told that i have no right to make a complaint about the neighbours meter. I had told them it is running slow and mine is fast. For which the foreman replied that, they need to get a complaint from the respective house to check if it is running slow.

                        I was trying to explain to them that even i have 10 acs in my house and none of them is working would you still consider it, for which they say these are the rules.

                        So inbetween my connection and the meter i suspect that the unapproved house is using my connection, we are trying to find out as to how to go about this, however i request the department to first (1) seize connection or take action on the building owner (2) stop connection

                        The exceeding bills makes me very sick and also even when we dont use the ac, our eb reading goes to 10 units in the night time.

                        I request you to do a surprise check as i dont trust the local tneb department in this case. They are ready to do anything for the builder.

                        Builder has tampered my meter with the help of tneb employee
                        Builder had an agrrement with the tneb employee to have a meter that doesnt include ac bill
                        Tneb makes only regular check and confirms that meter is running well and fine.

                        When my neighbor is out of town my eb meter is very less.

                        Request the department to take action :

                              Been staying in ponmar malawi street under mambakkam eb office. Even if there is a small drizzle of rain in the evening the eb office will take away the current and give it back on after 14 hours. Human rights violation of not considering us to give the current back or not giving proper answer. The technicians are not supportive and always work in their leisure time we have families in malawi street and each and everyone suffering by irregular and irresponsible and arrogant eb team in mambakkam. Always ponmar malawi street will be the victim in this total mambakkam area.

                              This issue is not resolved, even the complainant portal is cheating one. Waste of raising an complaint.

                                        Frequent power cut only for about 8 houses in our street. How come only few houses get interrupted supply? While our neighbors have power supply through out the day. Today ( 12.07.2019) we had power cut from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm and from 4:30 to 6 pm. We pay our electricity bills in a regular fashion. Then why do we get interrupted supply? We are well aware of the power demand but it's unfair to cut the supply only for 8 houses. We hope that the electricity board pays attention to our issue!
