        Eb staffs didnt came to take the readings for the month of may and billing was as per the old bill cycle which was march month, The calulation of billing was wrong for the month of july becoz as per our govt slab rates billing is made as per less than 500 units user and more than 500 units user, though our usage was 400 per month but billing was less for the month of may and more for the month of july, this is totally wrong

                    I am currently residing at 192, S.NO 113 / 1A1, THATTAKULAM ROAD KOLAPAKKAM, CHENNAI, which is having an electricity connection bearing consumer number [protected], Divisional Office 261-Nandambakkam. Today, I was shocked to receive the current electricity bill for an amount of Rs. 5124/-. My monthly electricity bill amounts generally range between Rs. 500/- to Rs. 2500/- The bill for this month July is almost twice the amount of my regular bills I investigated the matter from my side to find out the error and I noticed that the previous month I charges as PMC mode. If you charged like this as consumer I have to pay more amounts. As you will notice, there is clearly an error in it. I, therefore, kindly request you to correct the current bill and issue a fresh bill for the current month. I hope my complaint will be resolved as soon as possible.

                        2)The consumption units as given by the bill is too high (3000 units for 4 months)for a domestic consumption despite not consuming for about more than a month where our highest units for 2 months is about 500 units

                                Address: Plot No; 61, Nakkeeran Street, Muthamizh Nagar, Pammal, Chennai - 600075

                                We are facing fast running - issue with TNEB Meter since this bill cycle.

                                On 01/Jul/21 we checked the meter reading at 4.00pm which was 15045 (kwh) and calculated with the previous reading 13660 and got shocked as it shows the consumed units as 1385 for two months, which is about 7588/- rupees. So we have given written complaint to AE - TNEB Pallavaram West on 02-Jul-21.

                                In the meanwhile, we called an electrician to check the house wiring and confirmed that the issue is with the TNEB Meter.

                                And we have not received any proper response for the written complaint until 06-Jul-21. Hence my wife (Nisha Devi R) raised a grievance in "CMCELL" portal as well as shared the detailed email to "[protected]@tn.gov.in".

                                Petition No: 2021/1255862/UV
                                Status : Under Process

                                On 06-Jul-21 evening around 5.30pm, a lineman from TNEB came and inspected the issue and agreed that the meter was running fast during load. However, it can't be replaced unless or until there was a physical damage.

                                And he called Foreman and explained the issue also mentioned that we have escalated this issue in CMCELL portal.

                                So the foreman replied, it may be considered by humanity if we would have not escalated to CMCELL. So he asked us to meet AE one more time and request her.

                                So kindly do let us know, is that wrong raising a online complaint in CMCELL. Kindly get this resolved by changing the New TNEB meter.

                                    My electric meter for the above connection is running fast. This time it is rs 18594.My usage for the two bed room, 800 sq feet house is: 4 led light12 wats for five hours, one ac 2 hours only -no water pumb.I made a complaint to the concerned section and they did not take it seriously. It was observed the meter in the problem shows more than 20 units daliy-this is very much wrong
                                    I request you to kindly change the meter as early as possible
