    Respected Sir,
    In our area we are having electricity problem from past 3-4 months and anytime out of three phase one/two phase will not be there. Before two days full night power was not there so we gave complaint in EB, the EB person came and fixed some wires through other electric box and took rs.500 from all the houses. So, I request you to solve this problem as soon as possible.

Single phase is not working i registeredcomplaint to santhosapuram tneb office morning 11am technician from santhosapuram tneb office came 1.30pm nd solve the issue... But he asked money 200 for his work. Tamilnadu jaya government not giving salary to workers? Then y that techinician asked 200rs money from me.. I gave 50rs but he is not satisfied. He scolded nd leave the place but he received that 50rs with his pocket. This type of government workers go nd beg money to streets, temples etc.. Santhosapuram electric board nd his workers is very worst they act like gundas asking money for every small works.. These kind of works his duties nd responsibilities only.. I thought jaya government is very strict nd loyal but this type corrupsion continue in all goverments.. I faced like this first time in my lifetime if iam chief minister means i terminate this type workers on the spot...

                  Hello Sir / Madam,

                  I am Jayshankar from West Mambalam - Rajaji Street. Past 2 years we are living in West Mambalam. For past 2 - 3 months very often & frequently power cut in Rajaji Street which is very annoying and disturbing. 2 days back night at 9.45 power cut happened, i called 1912 customer care nearly 10 - 15 times, they said power will come in another 30 minutes & so on.

                  Finally power came next day morning only. But now again the power has gone and i called 1912, they said they will look in to it. If this is the case kindly look in to the same and do the needful at the earliest.
                  Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] customer support has been notified about the posted complaint.
                  Please ask wireman to check supply in all three phases in taylor estate 2nd street kodambakkam since one phase does not have power from yesterday night. Thanks

                          Perungalathur eb service is a crap. Our tn government is totally waste..
                          There is no power in our area from past one hour. I tried to contact eb office but i couldn't.

                          Why the heck you guys are toururing us by cutting the power by midnight. Don't you think of people who are sick??? Or what old aged people will do..
                          This happening for many days.

                                  Paid our electricity bill of Rs. 299 today. Gave the cashier Rs. 500. He gave me back Rs. 200. I said, you need to give me Rs. 1 more. He said, do you want that?!

                                  He was taking my Rs. 1, and asked me if I want it when inquired for returning proper balance. Imagine TNEB stealing like this from every other customer!

                                    They are so lazy to do what they have to do. I went to ask assistant engineer to come and check the meter.
                                    Normally I consume 740 units/2months but now is 2490 units/2months. I do not understand why can not they fix this kind of the problem. Are they qualified people? Are they qualified engineer? I paid 15kINR for this bill.
                                    It is shame.
