      Sir, I am Nandakumar staying at 19/9, Jay, em, Raghubathy layout_1, Opp. Prabhoo Medicals, Sai Baba Colony, Coimbatore 641011. There is huge tree just close to the EB post and has got very big dried branches which is ready to fall any time. The Eb persons had come to our area and informed us they would will cut the branches 20 days back but still not turned up. Its highly dangerous since its on a highly populated area with childrens staying in the residences. Vehcile are also parked below the tree. I would request you to take the necessary appropriate action to cut down the required branches.

In this regard, I have complained to the Line man before 6 months. But there is no vain. Further I have complained to the Junior Engineer, Thiruchitrambalam on the 4th November 2014 to change the line in the Poll. Till date there is no action for the above said complaiant.

              My name is Refaideen, residing in Madukkur, Thanjavur Dt. I have applied for a 3 Phase connection for my house (phase change from single to 3 phase) during the month of June, 2014. The authorities has advised that it is a long procedure & will take couple of months. So I have waited & was following closely with Madukkur EB Office...after 3 months the officers visited my house & they disconnected the line & given a temporary connection from our nearby house. They said that this is the part of the procedure...don't worry, we will finish within a month. Now another 2 months went...still we are getting power from our neighbour for which they are unhappy now. The beauty is...yesterday (09.11.2014) the EB staff visited my home to take the meter reading & said..."Oh!! you are getting power from neighbour house...this is illegal...you & your neighbour will be fined INR 1, 000, 00/- (1 lakh)". [protected] What is this...???? the connection was given by EB staff only (with the knowledge of AE)...now another EB staff is coming home & saying this is illegal...it will be fined. Now really we are in a Mess...around 35, 000 INR has been paid...5 months gone...we are getting power from neighbour house...3 phase connection is still in queue (this is wat they said). So, please arrange to resolve this issue ASAP. Regards, Refaideen +91 [protected] Madukkur, Thanjavur, Tamilnadu.

                Dear sir,

                SUB:-Tamilnadu Electricity Board (TNEB) - To Put Side Arm in Electric Pole/Post
                TNEB SNPURAM, SVAKASI -626130


                I am M.SENDURPANDI, Constructing my Residence house at PasumponNagar, S.N.PURAM, sivakasi-626130, viruthunagar dist
                (My Mobile no: [protected])
                When I have bought the plot electric pole *was* not available in front of my Plot,
                When I'm returned from abroad found the LT electrical wire installed in front of my plot.
                Now, I have started to construct my house and *found the pole and electrical lines* are very near to the wall due to which the electric may flow to the house. Also, due to the wires, we are not able *to complete the front side of the building.* If we build further it would touch the Low Tension wires.
                So i visited TNEB office at SN Puram, as per instruction I applied for fixing side ARM, they took more than 3 months for put their estimation,
                and finally the included wire for 3 X 66 meters(actually its only 125 feet, ie less than 40 meters).
                they wire already laying in U shape and swinging by winds. Even-though i paid the full amount Rs. 14500/-.as per their estimation.

                still after 45 days they didn't start any work. i visited AD office at Parapatti,
                he said it will be completed this week. still they wont do. i met with AE of SNPURAM Mr. VijayaKumar at SNPuram, he said that it will not be done in this year it may take one or two years to complete.
                He have failed in their duties towards their esteemed customer and are accused of harassing, humiliating, mistreating me. They have failed in their duties to guide, direct, suggest, resolve my concern in any way possible with the dearth of knowledge and resource available to them.
                I've been made to make number of visits to the branch but with no results.

                I request you to take this into consideration and take quick action to shift/put side arm in Electricity pole.
                Thanks in advance for your quick response and support.


                With Thanks and warm regards…

                            It's been annoying that no one in EB center at valasaravakkam care to answer the call while power is down for about 3 hours now as I'm filing this complaint. We understand that there would difficulties to correct the falut during rain. Though some should response the customers call. Worst administration and customer service!

                                        am a resident of Nanmangalam lives in door.no1/257 ponniamman koil 2nd St., I have registered a complaint on 24th oct night by calling 1912 from my mob.[protected]. When I checked there was power supply in neighbourhood and found supply issue in our main board. When we have enquired we were told it could be because of cable fault which has laid under ground. Until Saturday there was no response to my calls or follow up with 1912. Then I somehow got Kovilambakkam Eb office contact and registered one more complaint and they had sent Line inspector on Monday afternoon after so many follow up calls. That person was demanding 10k to lay the new cable and labour charges for digging and laying. Kindly let us know as a consumer should we bear the cost as the damage due to rain and it occurred outside of my house. If at all if I have to bear the expenses what would be the cost. That line inspector refuse to share his name and he was very rude.
