    We are facing frequent disruption of power in our area jeeva nagar perianaickenpalayam. Strangely houses connected to one post alone are affected whereas power in other nearby houses are not affected. Old people and children are most affected. We need eb office to look into this seriously and also deputte other area linemen to attend problems in our area in case our area lineman is busy till this problem is permanently solved.

          Sir

          This is inform you that i have made enormous complaints for the past 3 months to the Asst. engineer of my locality to remove the cable which has been going across my house for the past 5 years. After so many quarrels with our neighbour the issue was brought to the AE notice and yet there is no solution to the problem. The Cable is weak that it lost its shape and colour and lying over our iron gate.

          If any electricity accidents or death occurs TNEB and our neighbour are sole resposible.

          I hope TNEB Higher Officials take an action regarding this issue.

            Reading was not taken by eb member from february. We went with reading and paid advance amount of rs.700. But now the bill has been calculated for past 6 months and generated as rs. 5169 (Deducting 700)
            This was the mistake from eb west tambaram.
            When we went to complaint, they said the eb official was new hence billing has gone wrong. We have to pay the generated bill.

            When issue is on eb's end why should we bare the wrong amount.
            As an average our bill comes up to rs.800 per month.
            Please rectify the bill and provide a solution asap

                  Got so much depression bcoz of this irresponsible electricity board.. Pls try to serve ppl don't be a money eaters.. Don't kill middle class ppl lifes with ur irresponsible attitude nd stupid tricks.in my house they always take wrong reading they won't listen to our complaint they simply say i[censored] want current u must pay wat we told. Sometimes they won't take reading i asked but they said you consumed below 100 units so u didn't got reading you won't be charged i[censored] use below 100 units. If i complained also ter is no response from them for one year.. They didn't provide reading for us for 1 year.. One day suddenly they came nd said "u didn't pay ur bill for past one year so now u have to pay ur bill with extra fine. They cutted the electricity connection immediately and said u first pay all the fine then only we will provide electricity supply to your house. Then i mortgaged my jewelry and paid fine of rs.10000. They are using this kind of cheap tricks to charge ppl extra money.. They suddenly charge extra fines for nothing they won't even take reading properly.. If i ask anything they so rudely says to me that i[censored] don't pay wat we charged we will cut your electricity connection.. They don't even consider my complaints.. Like this i was affected by them in various issues for the past 5 years..

                        Eb person use to take reading by 6thof alternative months but this month he came by 8th. On 6th we had below 500 units, now they billed for 510units which i have to pay 1846 rupees. If it's taken on 6th i would have to pay below 1150rupees.
                        Nearly 700rs difference becoz of the delay of the staff in eb. 700rupees is the total amount i am paying in other seasons except summer. Having small child we adjust using electricity to control units below 500 units. Many people in my locality suffer like this. So kindly do the needful.

                          Sir/madam,

                          We are residing in putlur village ganesh vistha nagar, next to thiruvallur.
                          Many complaints i have seen in this website with this same problem in same area. But no action taken yet. We are facing this problem 3+ year.

                          The problem we are the victims of, is explained below in short.
                          1. Extreme low voltage.
                          2. Too much voltage fluctuations every day & night, which may damage our costly electrical instruments.
                          3.in the nighttime, problem is even worst, there is often no power or too low voltage to operate fan, tv or some-times even cfl bulbs.
                          4. Kids and old age people are suffering so much. Even working people not able to sleep properly.

                          Kindly take action asap.

                            Power cut regularly in night time, more than 3 to 4 hours in ambedkar nagar, suzil francis street. Only it is happening in ambedkar nagar, in few houses. No one taking it is an issue, feeling unhelpful. No proper response from pattabiram tn electricity board. We are helpless. Small childrens are crying in the night due to this power cut and no proper sleep. Please help us to solve this issue... : (

                                  Sir, this is the third complaint i am registering within the past 1 month. I live in nilamangai nagar, adambakkam. Every summer in this area and areas adjacent to this are suffering from extreme low voltage as well as unannounced powercut at nights. On 05/05/18 there was powercut due to maintenance. It was supposed to be from 9am to 4 pm. But power was restored only at 5 pm. Again on 06/05/18 today, the power was cut from 9 pm to 9.30 pm. This unannounced powercut happens just one day after maintenance. Nobody knows what maintenance work is being undertaken. Voltage also is very low. They cite increased use of a/c during summer but the fact is in this low voltage a/c s do not work even with double booster. Nobody cares about increasing number of flats in this area. We have been asking for separate transformer for years but of no avail. Frequent powercut especially at nights that too phonecalls to eb office is always unattended as they keep the receiver off as soon as they cut the power. We want permanent solution to this matter and action against people responsible for answering calls. Will higher authorities take action?

We are suffering with no electricity through the night. Even if there comes a small wind, it leads to power off. Have't seen such a worst experience ever. The people in perur are also human beings. Going for a work and having kids in home, it is a worst situation if we have sleepless nights. Kindly take some action...
