    I will open my office weekly once just for cleaning purpose and my electricity bill is very high for 1 and half years
    I Dono how it is possible
    Even this month my electricity bill is very high
    I came to E.B office to check with the R.s department (the person incharge of billing)
    He told to take a pic of my meter reading showed in the meter through my phone and to show him
    So I went through the procedure he told
    After showing my reading to him
    He reduced my EB bill, I Dono how without even taking reading they can a send a bill value which is thrice a higher amount for the past 1 and half years
    Even my March month bill is rs 1963
    Please take action
    And return my money back
    Thanking you

      I have been charged bill of Rs. 2990 for last month in my bill.
      Whereas an amount of Rs. 4830 has been included in the bill as arrears for md shortfall and a total of nearing 7820 has been charged.
      Since we have been affected by covid and hospitalised we had delayed in shifting the commercial distribution to domestic which has caused rise in md.
      Please consider the complaint and reduce the bill amount by cancellation of excess charges

        Sir/Madam,
        We have billed RS.920 as previous assessment amount billed on 05 June 2021. But the previous assessment amount is RS.680 only.(8feb2021-5Apr 2021 )This amount is the bill amount for 5/4/2019 . We don't know how it is supposed to take the bill amount of year 2019 rather than PMC.
        kindly revert the bill amount to previous billing cycle which is Rs.680.
        I enclosed the Wrong billing details.
        Kindly do the needful
        Thanking You.

          We have received a bill amount of Rs.2242/- mentioning that the previous assessment amount was taken for generating this bill.
          However, the bill amount for the same period (05/04/2020 to 08/06/2020) in 2020 is only Rs.1550/-. Not sure how this amount is arrived.

          Also, we were away for most of the time for the past 2 months and have started utilizing power supply only from this week onwards. Hence, the bill amount should be less than Rs.200/- only.

          Requesting you to take fresh readings and regenerate the bill please.

But how come we are receiving this since nobody at home we are receiving the Bill of Rs.4552. I would request you to revisit on my bill until i cant pay my fee without using electricity

                        Previously i paid the bill in the month of april now for the june month i received a billed amount of more than Rs 4000 where i usually pay a maximum of Rs 1500. No one came to my home to take the reading. But how come a bill was generated? Am from pallavaram and the EB office is also not attending the calls regarding this query. We need to know the reason for high bill amount.

                            This complaint is regarding consumer number [protected] which is connected to the 1st and 2nd floors of my house at 37, perambur Barracks Road.
                            The two floors are lying vacant for the past few months and are only used occasionally when guests come.
                            I was shocked yesterday to receive a bill for INR 28180 for the portion of my house which has been lying vacant.(Consumer No.[protected])
                            Sir, I am a senior citizen and I am facing huge anxiety due to this exorbitant and inaccurate billing. I have been your muost loyal consumer and have never defaulted payment.
                            I request you to immediately look into the matter and redress my grievance.
                            Yours faithfully,
