      My consumer no is[protected] .I was billed an amount of rs 4240/- for consumption of 698 units for sept 21 Oct 21 and Nov 21 qtr as my meter was defective..narration of the bill states " above amount on estimated basis as meter seems defective" . Now my flat has been lying vacant for the past several years and my normal units consumed is zero . My normal bill is the minimum meter rent which is rs 80/- . I approached my local distribution office immediately and submitted a written application for change of defective meter and reversal/ rectification of the bill. I did not receive any positive response from the local office and no solution regarding rectification of bill and my payment date is 16 th sept 21 after which I will be charged penalty for non payment . Now my question is what needs to be done from my end now if the local office does not acr ..whom should I approach . I have already visited local office (station manager)twice for follow up but nothing seems to move here. Kin dly help me as it is not possible for me to leave my office and run down to the local office for folow ups. Further online dockets for complaint is closed without resolution of the problem . Request your help on urgent basis.

            Ours is a Govt Sponsored Higher Secondary School in Durgapur. It is natural that there may be some pending bills, but whenever we want to pay such bills, they are not willing to accept cheque payment and are asking for cash payment. A Govt School cannot allow such cash payment. Therefore I would request you to kindly accept cheque payment to avoid our harassment.

                                  I've paid the electricity bill through Google Pay using the QR code which was given in the bill. The amount was paid on 30th Aug, 2021. But it is not reflecting in the download payment receipt area in wbsedcl site. Please look into the matter as soon as possible. Attaching the screenshot of my payment as a proof. I also didn't get any message after completing my payment. It is also showing under pending payments although I've already paid. Kindly refund my amount so that I can pay again from Wbsedcl website. And kindly don't provide the QR code with the bill if it doesn't work.

                                    I have received an unexpectedly high electric bill for 3 months (July 2021- September 2021). We do not have any AC.

                                    Our average per month is Rs. 245 but we received this time is Rs. 864 !
                                    Almost 3.5X extra.

                                    Many other people in my neighborhood received the same kind of high bills. I have lodged a complaint but they have removed my complaint.

                                    Docket number:

                                    39253478
                                    41489131

                                    Their telephone line does not work. They have no email to contact.
                                    We want a refund or adjustment with our next bill.

                                      Powercuts are so so prevalent in my area that I am failing to do my work, failed in interviews.

                                      It's about 10 loadsheddings for 1 hour each.

                                      Many many calls but no resolution in time.

                                      Service that doesn't reach on time is a wasteful service. I hope they know it.
