I'm living in Anupambattu near ponneri. In our area we have a big problem with the current. Atleast once in a day we have power cut. In rainy season we have whole day power cut. Such an irresponsible extension, they dont even pickup the calls. Kindly do the needful. I think we are living in forest. Today 11.7.2018 also whole day power cut. No response from the eb side.

I Calculated The Amount To Be Paid For 640 Units From Your Bill Calculator In The Tangedco Official Website It Shows Only Rs 2704.00. Then I Lodged A Online Complaint About The Discrepancy In The Website On 04/12/2017. But Till Date No Response Has Been Received. And Also I Tried To Communicate With The Phone Number 1912 For The Online Complaint Status. There Was No Response. Then I Approached The Official Concern In The Section Office, Paramakudi Rural To Rectify The Defects. They Have No Answer About The Excess Amount Levied In The E.B Bill. Today It Is The Due Date For My Bill Payment, So I Paid The Amount Mentioned In The Bill Rs 3459.00 With Protest. Later If Any Negligence Or Deficiency Of Service Has Been Done From Your Side Kindly Adjust The Difference Amount For My Future Bill.

                            We live in an apartment with 3 floors. Almost all apartments have window air conditioners in their rooms. We do too. We are just two people in the house and hardly ever switch on our AC.

                            The bill amounts we've been receiving for 2-month period have been unreasonably high over the past couple of years. We've complained multiple times after which the EB guy said we had a bad/old meter. He replaced it by charging us Rs. 4, 000. Not much has changed after that.

                            This month's bill shows Rs.10, 100... I ask - What could make up a EB bill of 10, 000 rs.? Would it be 2 hours of switching on AC at night? Our neighbors in the same apartment complex laugh at us because their bill is never more than 2000 rs. in spite of them using AC and other appliances much more and theirs are families with 5-6 people too.

                            Don't know how but the EB folks seem to have control of what bill amount they assign to your consumer account; they were able to even reduce the amounts for a couple of months when we complained (sounds iffy)

                            This has been going on for way too long; Like I said - we've complained multiple times with no help and luck.

                              Dear sir/madam,
                              With reference to above meter number, we would like to bring to your kind attention that the meter is defective and is always running excessively. I have already posted online complaints several times and there was no action taken.
                              Please consider this letter as urgent and do the needful. Also we cannot bear huge amount due now, hence please help on this.
                              For a 3 member middle class family, can we expect to pay rs. 9000 as eb bill. Someone is stealing power and i think this is running in others account.

                              Kindly change the meter with a new one and suggest a proper amount to pay.

                              Regards,
                              Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                              We had been away from home for 15 days and surprised to see hike in UNITS. Often we had tapped surges created by intruders in neighbour SDU setup by other country and they force technologically to make us complain against TNEB and if we do not complaint we pay for 2 months a bill of around 3500

But suddenly for april and may month it increased to 530 units which is not possible because in may month nobody was there for 20 days. It seems some error in meter readings

                                        Hello sir/madam,

                                        The transformers placed at the entrance of achuthan nagar 1 st street, ekkatuthangal, 600032 is at very bad condition. Due to the rain 2 days back, it fell down with a power cut all night. They had just kept stones to balance the transformers now. It may fell easily with wind blow or again a rain. Please take actions immediately as there are chances of electrical leakage which may cause severe life damage.

                                        Need your immediate attention on this matter.

                                        Thanks,
                                        Prem
