    the new meter reading assessor do not take reading in our premises which end up in frequent door-lock. Our repeated oral complaints with the assessor has proved to be futile.

    I request that you pleae take up the matter with the concerned authorities to redress our grievance.

        Service #:[protected] This season of the year the amount charged is heavy. By refering my usage in the same period in previous years. I already approached AE of concern area due to not able to meet ATO. He asked me.to send email with details.
        Too much charged for my domestic service[protected] in this winter season
        Sir
        Forgot to mention my contact number.
        Here's my number: [protected].
        Dear Sir,

        With reference to our discussion to day morning, I am sending this email regarding the higher charges for my domestic service. On 02/11/2021 new meter installed after removing defective meter. The reading after new meter installed is 440. But total units consumed recorded is 617 which is high for my usage in this winter season (reference Dec 2019 and Dec 2020). As per current meter reading 440/ 49 days is 8.979 units per day. But 617 - 440 = 177 for 11 days. ie. 177/11 = 16.09 units per day which is almost double the units charged for 11 days. So please consider this and do the needful to pay my bills as early as possible. I am waiting for your decision to pay my bill, which is due by 10th Jan 2022.

        Thank you

        from
        Venkatapathy K

        I request to solve the issue.

                          Dear Sir/Madam,

                          I am a resident in Surrathamman Koil, 1st Street, Srinivasa Nagar, New Perungalathur, Chennai -600 063 and I want to bring to your attention that residents in our locality are facing grievous problems of the poor street light condition in our area.

                          We are facing terrible problems without the street lights, as it is a major hindrance to the night blinders. We do not feel safe while taking an evening walk, nor can we cross roads safely.

                          The lack of proper street lights is also an advantage for the thieves, making it difficult for us to go anywhere leaving our home locked. In addition, majority of the residents are old age and retired making them highly vulnerable to robbery.

                          I hence request on behalf of the residents to kindly take necessary steps as soon as possible and get the street lamps repaired or replaced.

                          Thank you,

                          Yours faithfully,

                          Vijayaraghavan

                                Sir,
                                We are from Venkatapuram, Ambattur and we are regularly paying the electricity consumption charges promptly on or before the due date. Even then also, they levied CC arrear charges and if we asked the respective officials, they also not aware and told that its systems generated, so we need to pay. If we need to pay, we actually want to know the reason/which period they levied CC arrears as we never kept pending/never missed to pay the consumption charges.

                                So, we request to provide the respective officers contact numbers for further action/steps.
