      Dear sir/madam,

      I am benjonson, residing
      In no.131, thiruvalluvar st,
      Mettukulam, koyambedu,
      Chennai 600107.

      Whenever there is power cut in our area we are not getting immediate & proper response from eb dept.
      There are 2 / 3 phase/ lines in our area but only in our line/ phase we get power cuts frequently more power cuts while comparing to other lines/ phase in our
      Area.
      When we try calling the e b dept there telephone number are always busy.

      Hereby i raise complaint against eb dept in our area regarding non proper support.

                  I am mr. Jeya xavier sahaya joe residing in tirunelveli. I own a house nearby which is left for rental purpose. Service no. Kkc1229 - melapalayam ii has been disconnected due to pending payment for last month. Today the payment was made & receipt has been generated based on the payment made. While speaking with the concern wireman (Contact no. [protected]) he uses unwanted local languages which makes us very irritating. Even after payment is made it is very pathetic to hear such rubbish pattern.

                    Dear Sir,
                    We are living in Vasudeva Nagar, Karanai puduchery, Urapakkam area. Since the day we got the electricity connection, the electric supply has been very erratic and quality of electric supply is always short of 230 volts and especially during weekdays. This has caused immense problem with operating domestic electric devices such as pumping motor, Mixer, grinder etc. Requested to look into this and provide solution to this perennial problem.

                          Consumer no.[protected] I am the house owner of 9 olivers road. LL holder Smt rajeswari owes me more than Rs.2 lacs after deducting her deposits and lawyers are following up the case. She is due more than 3 months electricity dues to the board. As per rules power should be cut when dues exceed one month. But staff are not cutting the power and the lady is expected to leave the premises by month end. By your not cutting the power the lady leaves any power dues I have to hold Board only responsible as the power has not been cut inspite of our requests. On earlier occassion also when the power was cut by the board the lady resorted to illegal connection and a cut at the pole itself was done by the board on our request. The lady then paid the fees. Please note any bad debts on account of power dues I have to proceed only against the board as the lade is likely to runaway.

                          I am the house owner of 9 olivers road and have rent the house on lease and licence basis to one MRs. Rajeswari, She is due after adjusting her deposits more than Rs. 2 lacs and lawyers are following her up. She has not paid electricity dues for more than 3 months and still her line is not cut. Even following up with you in email the officer has not taken any action. Though your rules provide for cutting power if one month electricity dues are not paid workers down the line appear to have there own norms and fees. Our lawyer has requested to inform you that any loss I am put due to bad debts the board will have to reimburse me. The tenant is expected to go away by the end of this month. Instruct your officers to cut the line and inform me that they have cut power to the unit by calling [protected].

                            Our consumption of electricity at Bharat Petroleum Company Outlet at Maraimalainagar is arround 1.8 lakhs in two months. Your meter reader is not coming by due date to note down the reading and inform us the payment due resulting delay in payment.
                            Please direct the officials to ensure timely action avoiding collection of penalty from us.
                            This month the meter reader called us to his office on 10 June with the reading and he noted it sitting in his office with the date of 30 May that is fabricating as he visited our location on 30th itself and noted the reading.

If I call the phone No. 2526 8855, either it is ringing and ringing or evasive reply from the attender concerned. If I go to the EB office at Seven Wells, no one give a proper reply and I asked them the Complaint Book to register my complaint but there is no complaint book is available. The entire people of the street are very much suffered due to the intermittent failure of the Electricity.

                                    I am from Jeeva nagar first street Madipakkam, we are facing fluctuations in our area for the last 4 months, especially during night hours. I have personally complained 3 times and people in our street have complained many times, but situation has not been resolved and the people who are responsible say that it will be ready in two days but nothing happened till now. We have pregnant women and old people in my place, without any proper ventilation at night they suffer each and every day. someone should take responsibility and resolve this asap.
