MY SC NO.[protected] With reference to my above connection, earlier my meter was faulty and it got replaced on 25/08/14. I paid the arrears of lump-sum for the period when the meter got struck on 12/09/14. After fixing I suspect that the meter is running fast and I found that some other cables are connected into our meter. In this regard, I informed the AD, AE and Lineman and so for no action taken. By way of this, we only get affected for faulty/excess consumption. The lineman came and fixed the meter and taken bribe for the same and when call also not responding. AD is directing to AE and he is not taking any action for the same. In this regard, called the customer-care, online complaint but no action taken so for. Concerned authorities please take immediate action and rectify the problem at the earliest. Ramasubramanian. K

            Respected Sir/Madam,

            In Magakalam Village there was a transformer failure from 15/9/2014 to till today.
            When we are asked about the transformer failure to the respected J.E & A.E & D.E sirs. They are IRRESPONSIBLE for this. Particularly J.E NOT RESPONSIBLE for this case, due to this transformer failure -
            AGRICULTURE was really affected, more agricultural lands was not well irrigated and lands was dried.
            Many common people are affected and they got loss of money. So, Please kindly repair the transformer failure
            and increase the agricultural development.


            Thank you,

            Yours Faithfully,
            COMMAN PEOPLE.

                The street lights in the VGN Blooming Garden in the Mugalivakkam area opposite Pon Vidhyashram School are not working for some time. Please look into it. The EB staff have cut number of trees in this area brutally. The trees have been grown by us with great care and effort. I would like the EB staff to cut the required branches only keeping in mind the depleting green cover.

                  Hi, We have been experiencing frequent power cut in Urapakkam; there is not intimation of any power cuts either. Further to this the complain / customer care number "[protected]" in Urapakkam is not working whenever there is a power cut. This has some other effects like there had been thefts at least 4 known cases so far this month (believe thieves are using these power cuts). Would appreciate if you can take necessary action to have minimal power cuts / outages and the number to active most of the time. Regards,
                  Hi,

Because of this power cut we are facing issue to work from house. Would appreciate if you have minimal power cut or not during working hours which is affecting our regular work.

                    I am residing at old No. 53, New No.6, 3rd main road, R.A.puram, Chennai-28. For the past three days out of 3 phases one phase is not working which resulted in non functioning A.C in my house as well as the lift is not working. I and my co residents contacted Ph nos 24937383 and 28524422. Several times we made complaint. To-day I went to santhome E.B .Office in the morning and met the A.E and told the matter. He replied it will be rectified. But nobody has attended. Without lift elderly people find it difficult to move out. This is happening frequently atleast twice in a month. I request that suitable action may please be taken to get redressal Thanking you Yours M.Balachandran [protected]

                              Hi Team, My mother residing alone in my village house . Normally the EB bill would come around 150 - 180 rs only but this time it suddenly increased to Rs.3680.00 . We are really shocked how it went to that level . I checked my mother and came to know that she would use only two bulbs occasionally TV and grinder . But we do not know the exact reason how it suddenly increased . We suspect either the meter itself have some issue or the reading is wrongly taken . My mother who is senior citizen aged 70 still worried about this and it would impact her health condition . Kindly I request you look this as soon as possible . attached the bill FYR Details: Service No : [protected] Consumer Name: NADARAJAN Consumer Address: KEELAKURICHY Bill Amt(Rs.) : Rs.3680 Due Date : 29/09/2014 My email id :rajeshkannan.[protected]@gmail.com

                                      NEAR MISS ACCIDENT-DUE TO EXPOSED ELECTRIC (POWER) CABLE On 11.09.2014 at 10.00 am we saw smoke from exposed power cables laid by TNEB in front of our house near our gate. It was frightening and we had to immediately caution the public and children nearby and also remove our car parked by the side of it. After some time it stopped. However this might happen again. We request the concerned authorities to immediately take action and lay the cable properly so that it is well below the ground. Any time the exposed cable can again burn and it can cause big fire and also if it rains it can electrocute and be fatal. This was reported to the authorities on previous occasions while they attended other faults in our street about the exposed nature of the cables but so far no action has been taken. Once we request the authorities to take it up this issue seriously and take action before any accident happens which can be definitely fatal. We are also attaching a picture of the exposed cable for your reference. STANLEY STEPHEN SP. 30 I SECTOR III STREET K.K.NAGAR CHENNAI 600 078 CONSUMER NO: [protected]
