Dear sir/madam,

Supply failed in our total block. Raised complaint directly with tneb employees. But they have checked and stated issue in general place due to some drainage/metro water work. Also they are asking for 20, 000.00 as bribe from 5 families to fix the general issue. Also they are telling timeline that only when they get money on[protected]//7:00 pm they will start the work. Hence need immediate action on this

No 3, kadappa road, 10th street, lakshmipuram, chennai - 600099, near sarathy nagar, puthagaram

Thanks & regards,

      Hi,

      My name is saravanan, i am a tenant for mr. V. Doss apartment. My regular bi-monthly usage will be around 500 to 600 units and used to pay around inr 2000 to 3000 as an average bill. But the bill period from 17/04/18 to 20/06/18 the consumption meter reading raised into 1600 units. Which is 4 times more than the regular billing. I have walked-in to the eb office ponnamallee and am not satisfied with the steps they have taken to resolve the issue, since the next bi-monthly bill is also been generated, the people from eb office forcing me to pay the bill and sign my acceptance in some register which i don't want. I doubt that meter reading noted is wrong or fault in the meter. I challenge that the reading is wrong and i wanted this compliant to be inquired. My service number is[protected]. Please resolve this as soon as possible.

      There is no power in my building 104, general patters road, Anna Salai, chennai 2, from past 5 days, no one attending to faults after repeated complaints. The AE is rude and useless, terrible service from TNEB. After complaining over 20 times they day say we will attend and nobody is come as yet.

        EB:123/019/311 There was a wrong entry by the dept. personal in the above service connection no from May to June 2018. They have charged me Rs.2651, by entering a wrong reading of 620 instead of below 350 units; I have complained two times about this to the concerned AE, in Royapettah on 3rd & 5th August 2018. And finally they send electrician, he checked and he said it was took wrong reading actually it should be as below 350 unit only, Now how they charged by entering wrong unit but we paid based on the wrong unit counts, hence kindly return my extra charges money and provide the way to sort it out this issue...and this totally not acceptable.

            There was a wrong entry by the dept. Personal in the above service connection no. For the last month. They have charged me rs.18939, by entering a wrong reading of 3060; whereas the actual consumption is only 30 units for la1a tariff. I have complained about this to the concerned ae, in medavakkam on 2nd august 2018.
            The last date to pay the bill was 9th august 2018.
            He says that he has reported this matter to the higher ups for the necessary corrections on 6th august.
            Now when i logged to my account on-line, i found dc/late fee and other charges totalling to rs.2962, in addition to the earlier charges of rs.18939.
            The total amount shown now is: rs.21901;
            I kindly request you to look into this matter and rectify the wrong entry.
            Your early action will be highly appreciated.
            I can't go daily to the concerned ae office in medavakkam, due to my health condition.

                We are living in rural area (Thengaithinnipatti) eb comes under viralimalai board. There was an maintainance activity on 14th aug (10 am - 5pm). But even after the maintenance period power supply was not provided. When we queried about this to eb department the answer was very lethorgic and they were cooly saying it will take another 2 days. Why these kind of problems not resolved in rural areas.. If its happening in urban area will the solution be same?? Poor answers from government officials is not acceptable.. Kindly take proper actions on this incident!!

                  My farming land located at villukury p. O. Under kalkulam taluk with the survey number: near to shivan temple on the right side and water rive canal at the left side. Currently tamilnadu electricity board construction & operations team is working on that place to launch a new electric-transformer / with stay wire in font of my land entry gate. This place will be dedicately given to my son, where he will build a house for himself/family which was already in plan. So kinly we request you not to keep the electric transformer in-front of our land. Moreover, this project was not informed to us before and suddenly officials are working on it wihtout any prior notice to us. This kind of process is really un fair, hurt and we are ready to come for a discussion to find a resolution on it.

                  Thanks and regards

                          The online payment portal for TNEB is not responding to add a new connection number for paying the bills on line through net banking.
                          If this kind of online payment portal is made available to consumers the TNEB will face loss as already TNEB is said to have run on loss.
                          It is requested that TNEB top officials may be informed to rectify the Online payment portal.
