Meter reading is supposed to be taken on 31 May 2018, but when we went to the EB office and asked about it, they are saying we forgot to take the reading for your block and asked to take the reading by ourselves and they will update the system to pay online. Also have a feeling the meter is not working correctly as the bill reached 7500 rupees this month, when my usage is the same.

Request to take immediate action.

We are facing severe power cut for the past 1 week (12th July - 18th July) during night time around 9:30 PM to 2 AM in the morning.

When asked about this to the AE in padur EB office, he is saying there was wind that's why we cut the power and another day there was only a small rain and they cut the power. sometimes when there is heavy rain they cut the power and give reason like tree fell down.

i think this very silly, we are living in chennai metropolitan city, we expect some basic facilities like water and electricity. if they can't provide these basic facilities in a chennai city, then can't imagine the case of rural areas.

Request to take immediate action.
In our area poolankinar, udumalpet, there is no electricity for the past two days, (from[protected], my specific area is Rajiv Gandhi nagar, I have informed to the lineman but he is not responding, please correct it, In our area many old person and school going children are there,

    I am living in Thandalai village, near Alanganallur, Madurai. In this village, we suffer a lot, with electricity low voltage problem in our houses. A complaint letter of our village people was handed over to concern AE, at Chikkandar chavadi EB office, to replace the very old existing transformer. But, no remedy. On behalf of our village people, I request the authority, whom so ever concern, to rectify the low voltage problem, as soon as possible. with regards.

      Sir,

      This is Roy Arun from Zackaria Colony, Choolaimedu- chennai.

      Consumer # : [protected]

      This month EB reading has been wrongly taken.

      22/05/[protected]Reading)- 7500(Units) Rs.47930 (screenshot attached)

      The actual reading is 20997 on 24 May 2018.

      I have given a written complaint to the A.E on 24th May and 3 more times on this month.

      This is highly irresponsible from the EB Department.

      Still no action has been taken.

      Sincerely,
      Roy Arun

        I am from ags colony velachery. For the past two days there have been frequent power cuts in our area. Even if the power comes back it is not completely up. One of the passes is not receiving power at all. The power is restored only at 2:45 in the morning. I have lodged a complaint against this but there is no response. The customer care people are rude and after some time they are disconnecting their phone too. People who have just one phase and are on this particular phase have a complete shut out of power

And the issue was fixed after we raised a complaint in the Eb office. Again yesterday night we faced the same issue.It is very much annoying and we can’t sleep at night.

                          In terms of billing, Defence Colony in Chennai is probably one of the biggest customers of TNEB/TANGEDCO, yet we get a step motherly treatment. Many years after taking a policy decision to make all power cables underground, Defence Colony is still getting power from overground cables and power is cut off frequently for the slightest of reasons.Officials are not available to the public and customer care number is always busy. Defence Colony has mainly senior citizens and TNEB is causing great difficulty for us. This is an appeal to TNEB/TANGEDCO to attend to the needs of Defence Colony on an urgent basis before the monsoon sets in.

                              Tneb has chargerd throughout VGN SOUTHERN Avenue, kavnur illegitimate. On further analysis it was found that many flats were charged from 6000 to 25000, which is highly unjustified, as well on I found that during the month of march there is no change in reading which means I have not used electricity from February to march, but it is not like that, therefore TNEB is charging for 4 months Feb-April-june. Due to this electricity consumption units got accumulated, electricity prices got increased exponentially.if it was not the case then our unit consumption would be less than 500.Pls check the reading of the screenshot attached it shows that reading for the month of Feb and March is same I.e. 6260. Pls take this matter seriously
                              Thanking you in anticipation.
                              Regards,

                                      This complaint regarding the following address

                                      Subhiksha Apartments, 42/6 Kannaki Street, Choolaimedu, chennai - 600094.

                                      Frequent disconnection of Main cable in this area for the past 3-4 months. No proper power supply in 3 phase connection. Power cums ups and downs power trips happend frequently we cannot use the AC in night time. if the disconnection in cable happend the rectification time will take 7-8hrs in day time . In case of disconnection happend in night time have to wait till morning...after that it will take 7-8 hrs .

                                      We had an doubt due to commercial usage in residential are this will happens frequently for us.
                                      Kapico car service center, No 7, 3rd Street, Choolaimedu, Chennai - 600094, is running in this area. They used heavy power equipment to service the vehicles but there is no proper arrangements for that . Directly connected in the residential power supply . May be due to that reason we had a frequent problem in power supply.

                                      Due to this, we cant sleep properly and the students suffered a lot. Request you to please investigate and help us to resolve this immediately. Kindly do the needful.
