    I have got my electricity bill for the month of March, April from the Tamil Nadu Electricity board. Along with the electricity bill I have got a separate request for deposit of 9999. This needs to be paid along with my bill for the month of March, April. On enquiry I was told that this is a random pick by the system and this deposit needs to be paid in line of my high usage and will be held as a deposit. I have not heard of this mechanism earlier? What is this deposit for? When will it be returned? How much interest will be paid on the deposit?

        Hello sir,

        My meter was replaced in nov 2015, after chennai floods.

        There after till today (9 may 2016), i have only consumed 78 units (I was not at home most of the time). But when i see the bill the units consumed were 800+. I believe the reading was taken wrongly the person has taken 700 instead of 70.0 i believe.
        My eb acc no : 214:007:4044, please re take the reading and resend the bill the bill was too high that was more than my one year and i can not pay at a time.

              Everybody knows that this is summer season but it's very hot and this time there is frequent power failure in my locality i.e.in chennai RA puram. If once power goes off it takes minimum 3hrs and after an hour again it goes off. It's very difficult to all whoever having small babies at home. The govt would realise and take necessary steps immediately.

                    The meter box of our home got burned. It all happened without our knowledge.. The issue is may be with the meter box's quality.. They got Rs.2500 from us and said we will get some more money if we need.. I heard this issue has happened in many places.. So the issue is definitely with the meter box which is installed by the EB people.. Kindly consider this issue and help us..

                      We reside in thandurai pattabiram, We live in Jayaraman reddy street, we have around 50 housed in the two dead end street, We always get the power fluctuated during the night time no wonder every one use Air cooler, i initially thought this was the problem, we had the main transformers replaced with the another old one and the main cause for the problem is because we have a SAW MILL in our street which is located in the begining of the street, which requires the company line for the electricity but they use the residencial line to run the SAW MILL factory, however we cannot prove it as even they have to run the business. authorities can analyse the scenario and please do the needful, ,
                      Note: we have the street light on even in the day time for the past one week we have called up the TNEB several times and every often one lady picks up the call and says that it will be taken care, in our street everyone has tried calling up the SEKKADU TNEB office usign the customer care number and no action was taken. so please do the neeful..

                                Dear sir,

                                Im the resident of pensioners 4th lane, old washermenpet, chennai - 600 021.
                                There is frequent disconnection of electricity in 4th lane, we have made several complaints to change the underground cable but of no use. The cable seems to be an old one which has several patches. From 2 months alone we faced some 10 times disconnection that too in night times.

                                In our locality only the 4th lane is the problem, all other streets cables are new and working fine with no issues. Also our area masjid is in the same lane but it has 3 phase but some of the residents cannot afford to avail or even they have it might not work for some reason.

                                We request you to take necessary action on this with high priority.
                                Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
