Dear sir, Plot 6 Thiruvalluvar street, Durga Nagar. Tambaram Sanatorium. Chennai 600047. An Iron ore Lathe/Welding industry is running illegally. Already we complained to higher officials but no actions has been taken, Due to that illegal industry we are getting electricity fluctuations. Kindly check and do the needful.

Sir, I am residing at Pallikaranai, Periyar nagar, kavimani street, as my house is located at the corner, the EB post is at the corner of my house. That post, along with adjacent 2 posts was broken at the bottom, by the persons who were cutting the coconut tree. When the street people complained about it in the EB office, they just temporarily gave a supporting post, for the post located near our compound wall. Due to many heavy vehicles passing through the road, that post got weak and the position of it is very slanting, due to that the EB wire is going inside our compound wall and touching our building, so we fear to come out of the house every time. We are not able to open the window of the room, as the EB wire touches the window. We gave complaint letter about it many times to the EB, AE, Pallikaranai. But in vain no step has been taken, kindly take immediate action before any unforeseen incident happens. Regarding this we made telephonic complaint to the EB Chairperson office also.many times sent email to eb chairman cell. everyone are deaf to this problem Kindly take immediate action, or else give the details of the person in your department whom we should contact regarding this.

To : SE / CEDC / SOUTH. Dt:[protected] From : Secretary Sterling sarbathy apartment 13-central school road Gill nagar, Choolaimedu Chennai -600094 Ph no :[protected] Kalaimani &[protected] kumar Sir, Sub : excess & abnormal meter reading for last & current months due to meter fault. Ref. : s/c no :[protected] meter no :975030 With reference to above our apartment common meter running faulty and abnormal for the past 2 months the meter shows abnormal units reading and consumption which is much more abnormal compare to our 100% connected load if we are using 100% . Hence kindly see our previous meter records and rectify or replace the faulty meter immediately .also we request you to please arrange revised / corrected / average meter consumption charge enable us to pay the bill in time.

My meter reading is 13588 while i received bill for 14580. I complained so many times and don't listen me to and keep sending from one place to another. It happened second time to me. First time i tried all my effort and complained everywhere, nothing was done. Finally they cut my connection and i was forced to pay unjustified bill of 13000/-. They said they will adjust this amount in next bills nothing done on that front. Now i have got another bill of 6670/- for wrong meter reading. I am not ready to pay at all though with no help from them i am afraid what i can do. Looking for some serious help on this.

For my service no. [protected]- at Kamakotti nagar -Pallikaranai. I tried to register on line for bill payments. Received a reply stating that it is already registered. When requested, that I am a NEW occupant & Do not know the earlier login/pw details, I got help, to register fresh & TNEB cancelled the earlier registration. After registration they are suppose to send a mail to me & confirm. I did not receive the mail. My mails to all concerned- as per their contact details at TANGEDCO- were returned back without receipt. Do not know what to do. I am 74 years old & cannot go door to door to find out the answer.

Respected Sir,



Sub: Request for refund of excesss amount paid against wrong meter reading taken by Shri Srinivasan, Assessor, T.N.E.B., Nolambur Section.

4. On Aug 2013, I was shocked that Mr Srinivasan, Assessor, assessed my consumption wrongly and computer showing my consumption

I have made a letter to the Assistant Engineer, Nolambur about wrong meter reading taken by Mr. Srinivasan. The Assistant Engineer
and revenue Supervisor of the Section has accepted the mistake of Mr Srinivasan, Assessor. They requested to make the payment as
Shown in the computer to avoid disconnection for not making payment by due date, and assured me for refund / adjustment of excess
amount charged by Shri Srinivasan, Assessor.


5. Sir, after a lapses of two months, neither, excess amount paid by me has been received nor adjusted with my another service
No[protected] as promised by the Assistant Engineer/Revenue Supervisor/Assessor of TNEB., Nolambur.

6. You are requested to direct the concern officer/staff to resolve the issues and look into the matter personally to refund

I had frequently requested the staff to set right one of the cable fault line that has not been working for more than a year but nothing has been done so far to balance the distribution between the three phases. I request you to send the right technical staff to check the inflow lines and set the cable fault right and balance the distribution of the power to all the three phases evenly. I would also like to state that I had changed the rotator switch panel through the MES about year back. Each time your staff attends the solution has been only temporary. Please depute some responsible person at the earliest and set right the matter. Regards John Lawrence C.c. Superintending Engineer/ Divisional Engineer
