    Address: Madurai, Tamil Nadu

    Respected Sir, I am Rajkumar from Madurai. I would like to file a complaint against the poor power supply against our Lane. Everyday we are getting only 160 voltage and most of the transformer line are taken to corporate shops nearby to our house on bribe with few officers in EB. We have made several complaints against EB board Madurai but to no avail. So we thought to make this to your visibility and to our Madurai collector as well. We hope you would take charge against my complaint and we are hoping to see the result. Thanks for your consideration. Yours Truthfully, Rajkumar. ph: [protected]

                    Sir I`m running a ssi unit near sivakasi ., exactly at vadamalapuram village which comes under thiruthangal EB office control. Mine is a seasonal business .I grinde charcoal for fire works requirements. As this is off season and also the climate is rainy our business is on holiday till deewali. When the unit is in working, our clerk use to note the EB reading daily as to calculate the EB units consumed daily. Since it is leave, we do nothing and now your people came for take reading and found the meter not functioning . Hence they insist me to pay the previous bill, which is too high ( peak season). As a evidence you can refer the past 10 years statement for my EB bill after Deepawali, it will be only minimum . Also my unit is under cc Tv survilliance for 24 hours, and hence I can prove you that no work had been done for nearly two months. I request your self to look into the matter and immediately and do the needful to me. Thankyou.

                        Where are we and our government servants?

                        Providing helpline numbers are just for name sake?

                        Today faced a worst reply by responsible TNEB complaint attendee when I was about to raise a complaint for a Power Cut at certain area (Around 40 to 50 connections) Almost 300 meters no street light and it was dark.

                        It was about around 7.30PM to 8PM. When I called Kavundampalayam TNEB office complaint number[protected] no one has picked the call. It was about 10 to 15 times. It was ringing but no one has picked the call. Inbetween it was busy for 3 times.

                        Then tried to escalate to Coimbatore Circle FOC[protected]

                        The person has given a irresponsible answer that there is no problem at Transformer, might be in main line, will lineman will be coming in the morning and cut the call. (Paravaala Sir, ippodhaikku yaaruma illa, lineman kaalaila vandhu sari pannuvaaru)

                        The only doubt is tomorrow is Sunday. Whether he will come or not?

                          This is the very very worst experience with TNEB Redhills. If he is not ready to take the customer compliant and listen to the customer Query then the person should not be in the post to answer it. I am really fed up with the answer and the words which the person as responded. I am filling a compliant against TNEB. I have all the proof and video coverage how the JE is responding the public. He might be in any post but the response should be in proper way and the words he is using. What ever might be the angry he is in the response he is giving should be the proper way. If I am not going to get any proper response from any one. My legal advisory will take the necessary action. He is working with TNEB he is not the CM to speak like he is owner of Redhills. If am not going to get the any response the words he used in the Redhills EB office. I will do some thing and for sure i will right the letter to police station and raise a compliant against him. If ladies reaches the TNEB. He has any right to speak??..

                            I am living in a rented flat. The EB reading is not yet taken, the last reading was taken on September 2014, now it is December 2014. Since it has been three months ever since reading has been taken the reading is more than 500 units now. And it seems I will have to make more payment if the reading is taken now. Pleas take necessary steps possible. Customer no. :[protected] Area code : 09 - Chennai south Service no. : 214:008:4033 I though the reading might not have been entered in the card but must have been updated in the TNEB system. But I found that in the online payment portal of TNEB also the due is nil.

                                Dear Sir, On 10th December morning (around 10:45am) the meter reading staff visited our house in Balaji Nagar at Alwarthirunagar. It was drizzling and the gate of our house was locked from outside by my son. I requested the staff to open the gate and come in to take the reading after handing the key to him. For that, the staff began shouting at me in an uncultured manner. This has not been the first time that the meter reading staff are behaving in a rude manner. The meter reading staff, expect us to open the gates immediately after they knock. We are not sitting in home idle. So it will take time to come and open the door. Even if we come a minute late, they used to get irritated and be harsh with us. Taking meter reading is part of the job. However, their attitude is such that they are doing some favor for the residents. I would really appreciate if you could guide the meter reading staff to be courteous and show respect to the residents. Furthermore, if they maintain a standard date and time for taking reading, it would be really helpful for the residents. Looking forward for you to take action in this regard. Thanks and Best Regards, Saradamani

                                I had launched a complain against the discourteous behavior of EB staff. Instead of calling me for an enquiry, all the important EB officers came in person to my house for knowing the issue and solved the matter. The EB officers listened to my issue very courteously. Furthermore, they apologized for the discourteous behavior and also ensured such incidents will not happen in the future. I am terribly impressed and was surprised. It really created a great feeling about the EB officers. I am really thankful to all.

                                  I am the tenant of the above tariff of Mrs. Usha Rajkumar. Due to medical ailments, i will be able to walk only with the help of a walker and that too only inside the house. My above metre was changed in the month of July 2014. Before changing my consumption amount used to be below Rs. 2000/. Now after changing the metre it is exceeding Rs. 2000/- though the usage equipments are as before - Fans -4 Tube lights 4 Nos Daily, Fridge 1 Daily, Grinder 1 - only one day during a week, Mixi 1 daily, washing machine 1 once in two days and TV - 1. Especially during the past two months when the climate was cool, no fans were used, but the amount for the period upto 16/11/2014 has come to Rs. 2415/- I am very much shoked in this instance. Please check up and do the needful from your end for correcting the discrepancy if any. Thanks, Yasmin Muneer
