என் பெயர் அருண், நான் கடலூர் மாவட்டம். நான் என் குடும்ப சூழல் காரணமாக எனக்கென்று தனியாக வீட்டின் மாடியில் ஒரு வீடு கட்னேன்.
அதற்கு புதிய மின் இனைப்பு பெற மின்சார அலுவலகம் சென்று விண்ணப்பிதேன். விசானைக்குாக வீட்டீற்கு வந்தவர் சமையல் ரூம் இருந்தால் தான் மின் இனைப்பு தர இயலும் என்று கூறுகின்றனர். என் வருமானத்திற்கு தகுந்த வீடு தான் என்னால் கட்ட இயலும். சமையல் ரூம் இல்லாத காரணத்தால் மின் இனைப்பு வழங்கப்படாதா.???

Respected sir/madam,

We have been facing voltage fluctuation problem in ethiraj salai, egmore for more than 15 days from 10/7/2018 to 25/7/2018 and it still continues. No proper action had been taken from the tneb to solve the voltage fluctuation. Since the problem persists for a long time it may lead to short circuit problems leading to fire and damage of electrical and electronic products used in our office. Hence i request you to take necessary action as soon as possible.

With regards,

*present tneb power tariff:*
If you use 500 units rs. 1330/-
If you use 501 units rs. 2127/-
*if 1 unit exceeds we have to pay extra rs.797/-*

This system has to be changed and monthly meter reading is required.
Please make awareness to all.
If you consume 1000 units for 2 months, we have to pay rs.5420/-
But, monthly system is implemented, we have to pay only rs.1330/- per month....

We are living in perumbakkam radha nagar 2nd main road. Every day there will be power cut atleast for 4hours. That too in night they are disconnecting the power. There will be power in the next street, but we don't know why there is no proper supply in our area. This is becoming a daily problem after the recent maintanence shut down. Worst service ever. Please rectify the problem as soon as possible.

I am raja from padur chennai, i am staying in pacifica aurun happtness towers. My eb service number [protected]. My regular bi-monthly usage will be around 250 units and will pay around inr 500. But in the period 17th may 2018 to 21 july 2014 the consumption meter reading raised from 2160 to 2640 and consumed 530 units and bill came for inr 1978. Which three times more have to pay. Even i dont have ac in my home. I doubt that meter reading noted is wrong. Please resolve this as soon as possible because payment due date is 5/01/2015.

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.

Updated by Prabhakar Ashokan 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.

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

I am Nimrutha residing at Rajaji street, Nehru nagar, Chrompet, Chennai-44.Few weeks back there was heavy voltage fluctuation happening at every night. 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. Kindly find a permanent solution to fix this issue.
