Customer care numbers always busy. How public can reach. Power cut @ adambakkam shanthi nagar for the past 1 hr without any prior intimation. Trying to reach customer care 1912 n vanumpet numbers all are busy. I think they purposely keep the phone down. Can anyone tell the forum to complaint first that customer care is not reachable. That's why u get poor rating online too...

Don't know the reason why this is happening everyday while we are paying almost 2000 bill every after two months, it's very difficult to stay without the current on this summer season. There are kids, patients at home and they are suffering lot. It's a humble request on behalf of every residents plz take care of this complaint and do the needfull.

              Respected sir/madam,
              There is frequent power cut occurring in muthiya nagar, chidambaram and no one is responding our phone calls. They are showing their negligence in their work and we are the great sufferer's.
              At present there is power cut but no one is responding and the whole night we have to struggle. Mosquito bites and other harmful pathogenic organism entering our houses and causing deadly disease.

                    In koothanur near saraswati amman temple, kumbakonam main road, voltage is very less and fluctuating due to large no of connections and only 3 electricity lines are there at present. Kindly make arrangements to get 5 lines from the post
                    Large no of bores are running hence all these happens. Kindly make arrangements separately for home electricity supply and for other purposes

                              Electricity board line service man always ask more than ruppes 100 for per service, if anyone rejects to give money to him he did not respect for another complaint from a particular man. So i request you to take action on it. Not only a particular man any one came as a line service man he ask money to do their work. Lot of people think that is legal that money is required for that service but it is not legal he get money from our goverment as a salery, so i request you to take action on it.

                              Thanking you.

                                    I have paid Rs 2484 instead of 2168 on 28/1/20171 TNEB authority included 300 as Reconnections charges for the month of november 2016 - december 2016.Once again the amount of Rs 300 was included in Tneb bill for the month of janurary 2017 - feburary 2017 paid on 31 march. The bill amount is only Rs 50 but they collected Rs 351 on 31/3/2017 for one day late fee. Later i came to know that dc charges is only Rs 60 for domestic connections .Hence i request you yo kindly credit the excess reconnection charges for the two bills. The above service is working via over head lines only.

                                      I'm from sowcarpet having patient in my family. Your office is cutting power without prior notice that is very irresponsible on your part. Power is cut during night for example on 26.4.2017 which is even more irritating.
