    My usage is erratic, since some times I stay for long time or sometimes i do not use electicity, resulting in variations in my consumption.
    This is treated as short fall taking the peak into consideration.
    Meter not working is reported inspite of me using the power sparingly. TNEB is not giving me the proof that meter was stopped.
    How do I get the proof that meter was stopped.Can I have my usage history on daily basis.
    I can pay for record for last 6 months daily usage pattern & the spoiled meter quality report before & after detecting the fault

    Sir/Madam

    I am in Kundratthur recent days we suffered more issue especially in night time for power shutdown. Today more than 2hr no current. We tried BSNL number and JE number no response.
    What we do don't know. Without reason power is shutdown long time.

      Sc no[protected]. Our TN eb change new meter few days ago. Then our consumption charge is too high. Pls check our previous usage history. I think Maybe our new meter is fault. So pls take action immediately. And reduce our current eb bill amount. I'm using single fan, one CFL lamp, one system. Approximately daily 3 to 3 1/2 hours only using power.

            Respected sir,
            I just wanted to bring to your notice about the following complaint since the builder ramani realtors is illegally using the eb connections in his coconut grove (Singanallur) project.
            - he has not obtained the building completion certificate. And he has not given the occupancy certificate to any of the customers.
            - he is illegally allowing the possession.
            - further he is doing all malpractices like linking the commercial lifts connection to unsold flats eb residential connection. He is using the eb connection of one tower's unsold flats to another tower's flats where he has not got the eb connection at all. He is transferring the connection in an unsafe manner.
            - it seems he is involved in all sought of illegal practices.

            Hence i kindly request you to verify this and take the needed action against this builder.

              The street light in our street entrance in brindhavan 4th cross street, srinivasa nagar, madipakkam, has not been working for more than two months now. The area is already too dark and isolated, with street lights, and now it is very unsafe for us in that area, without these lights.

              Please take appropriate action and bring us light in our area.

                Our adrenalin pulsed to a fever pitch on the atrocious heartless activities of your field men while laying cables. Telephonic complaints to the competent authorities have yielded nil response and hence this communique.
                As part o[censored]nderground electrical cable networking at ashtalakshmi nagar, 9th st. Velachery, chennai-42, your men started laying the cable just adjacent tostorm waterdrain waterway that too barely ½ a foot beneath road surface throwingall prescribed norms to wind.
                The issue at stake is that our life is at peril. Storm water ways inlets chocking are something that which is not uncommon particularly during heavy downpour warranting human intervention with appropriate metallic tools. This manual intervention leaves us with a wide scope of puncturing the closely laid electrical cable and the consequent impact on human life is foreseeable. This should have been anticipated by your learned field officers before issuing the work permit. This is a clear case of intransigence and lackadaisical attitude wherein they failed to apply their mind in their over enthusiasm to facilitate smooth completion of the contractor’s job though flawed, compromising on the safety of your consumers.
                Cedc under normal circumstances is expected to owe its allegiance to public safety at large for their survival and subsistence is met out from public exchequer. Misplaced loyalty is not only misconduct but tantamount to breach of trust too. This culture and mind set needs to be nipped in the bud for endangering human existence is definitely neither the stated objective nor in your agenda - we strongly believe. Hence we look at you with an eye of faith forwe believe you will not allow us to be orphaned by the merciless hearts whose overwhelming patronage to contractors could as well kill us.
                Therefore sir, please save us from the heartless few by ordering to relay the cable as per prescribed norms at the earliest before monsoon sets in.

                      It's been close to a month since we got proper electricity. Suddenly at mid night the current goes off. You expect us to pay electricity bill and all other taxes, in other words you will beg from us and won't give back anything. Please be reminded that we pay you all, starting from government till the base. Don't fool with us. We aren't fools which would've been proved in our protest. Don't compel us for more. Give proper electricity and beg money from us. We are the makers.

                            Complaint no : 49 filed at 1.15am after trying to reach customer care for 2 hours from 10.15 pm.
                            There was low voltage from 10.15 pm on 21/6/17 till the time of this complaint 4.40 am. (Still not resolved) for the past six hours the voltage is very low in madipakkam new kuberan nagar. Tried calling tneb medipakkam at 22581010 from 10.30 to till now but no one answered the call. I called up 1912 five times between 1.15 to 4.30 and they have told me everytime that it'll be rectified in half an hour but nothing happened.
                            (Still not rectified)

                            This is the way tneb treat a public? Am going to file a complaint in consumer redressal for misguiding me and made me suffer for the entire night without any sleep.
                            I need a clarification from tneb higher official and a public apology to consumers in newspaper immediately and also take severe action against each and every employee of tneb madipakkam.

                            Also tried calling AE. He also didn't pick up the phone. So the employees of TNEB Madipakkam must be punished severely for non performance of their duties.
