    This is Regarding frequent disconnection of Power Supply in Ramapuram, Manapakkam Main Road Area (Parthasarathy Nagar) in Chennai. Atleast 4 times in a day Power Goes off. There is no specific times, Morning, Afternoon, Evening, Night etc This is major place in a city were u have DLF IT park and L&T Companies, not a remote place. Can there be any Permanent Solution for Power Cut. During Summer it is acceptable but throughout the year without any time, it is really unacceptable.

      For the past three occasions your assessor not came to my house for billing.After my intimation she create the bill, then I have remit the same by net banking.In this regard I have made so many complaints in your web site, but it was vain.On 27.08.2014 I have received one alert in my email about one bill for my ground floor connection with notification of door lock, but my wife was available in my house on 26th and 27th August 2014.I came to understand Your assessor Smt.Indhumathi is newly recruited and not having sufficient awareness about billing.Every time of billing we should intimate the meter reading to smt.Deepa another assessor, because Indhumathi is having a habit of non attend the phone.I am having two connections 1.

        Dear sir, I have been served with a bill of INR2, 565/- for using 626 units of electricity for service no:[protected] at 90 Lake view road west mambalam, Chennai -33 by Tamil nadu electricity board. The house is locked as my wife and child have joined with me in Lagos, Nigeria where I have been working. I do not know when a house is locked, how such a crazy bill can be demanded when there is no usage. Please revise the bill which will be paid immediately thro online. As me and my family are away, we cannot give any complaints personally in India, till we come back. In view of the above, please send nominal charges for keeping the electrical connection to my house, till we come back. Billing details: Service No :[protected] Name :C.RAJAGOPAL Amount Due (Rs.) :2565 Due Date :30-AUG-14 Reply to earlier complaint No[protected], asking for contacting the local EB office is something impossible due to the territorial dislocation of me and family.

            Sir, I am a resident of Nehru Nagar, Kajamalai, Tiruchirappalli-23.For the past 1 month from evening 6pm till morning 10am there is serious low and high voltage power fluctuation in our area. All the electric equipments are getting damaged and during night, even fan could not run due to very low and high voltage supply.This happens especially in the evenings and stays throughout night. The situation continues. This has led to faults in many of household appliances. In some instances the appliances have even burnt out. Before something worse happens please take immediate action. Thanks, S.Kannan Advocate.

As per the confirmation from our CM, we are not going to have any power cuts further more. But we can see the situation getting worse every day. As you know velachery is located near IT parks and most of them residing here are working class of people. It is very difficult to manage work at office after sleepless nights. Please help to resolve the issue on power cuts during night times at the earliest

                            Our EB connection Service No::[protected] have been used for past 11 dues but the maximum units consumed by the service in this duration is 510 units but current due for the month of august is showing as 1260 units which is logically impossible.Since we have only 1 A/C 3 star, 5 star fridge, water heater, LED Tv, 5 star washing machine, 6 fans, 6 lamps, inverter, mixer grinder and both us were working hence only minimum consumption of power during day time.The meter reading was logically impossible.Hence please take necessary steps to repair the meter and to provide excemption for current month bill

An Electrical Post standing sencond in the street from east, which is posing danger to the local residents. It is standing as of now with two to three iron rods. It may fall at any point time.

May be TNEB is awaiting to witness some untoward incident to take place, then only they may take up this work to replace the pole. We hope after finding this, the TNEB may take swift action to change the electrical post at war footing action.
