    We are getting abrupt increase in our electricity bill since our electricity equipment was changed.

    We are paying approx 4000 per month earlier with the same load it used to be 1000 per month.

    We are in deep trouble affording this abrupt increase in the bills.

    Filed a complaint to the department but no serious action was taken by the authority nor the society electrician is helping us out.

    Please help us out with complete meter and load test or with no options left we will have to file a case of fraud on the company.

    Copy of previous application to the department is attached.

    Meter number : 8PT06980
    Operator: SUJAL

                I'm staying as a tenant in my Parents house. I applied for a separate meter (Electricity Connection) in my name. But, it was declined saying my father is already holding one.

                I submitted my response corresponding to the Electricity department's rejection letter. Since then, I've visited them thrice and the lady/Station Master sitting there always says, we will come for inspection but they never shows up.

                Date of Application - 20th Dec 2016
                Reference Application Sl. No. 2879

                Adding to my frustration, my neighbor applied after me (Reference Application Sl. No. 2887) and got the connection even after getting the Rejection letter. He got hold of some external agents.
                His and mine residential status are the same.
                When I asked the Electricity department people (Lady), they said, Orders came from upper Department.

                This is a case of norms violation and favoritism.

                            Low voltage since this morning. Its summer season and in this situation its very tough to live. And this type of sutuation is coming very frequently i had called to wbscdcl many times but maximum time they didnt receive our call. We need a early resolution here as its impacting our daily live.

                              I am getting very high bill since last 6 months. In this month I got bill of 1069 unit and 324 for previous quarter. I have my domestic connection for about 15 years and I have never seen this type of huge bill earlier. I have not increased loads by any means rather I have stopped using some electric appliances. You can check my consumption history. I gave a written complaint to the local office on 18-JAN-2017 and also spoke to the local station manager, Mr. Soumit Majhi. He told me that high bill came because no. o[censored]nit(KWH) was increased to adjust earlier due. He told me also that this adjustment was done by the meter itself and he can’t do anything. Though he could not clarify the earlier due particularly. I paid all the earlier bills on time. You can check my records. My doubt is how the meter can adjust itself to incorporate the earlier due. The adjustment details is no where mentioned in the bill.
                              I am a retired person and can't visit offices in person again and again. I tried to contact regional grievance officer but no luck. Please help me to solve this serious problem at the earliest.

                              Thanks in advance!

                                Bill for February, March, April 2017 was only Rs 1672. But for May, June, July, The bill has jumped to around 23000.

                                Despite the use of same equipment in the house, how can the bill be so high??
                                There is an issue in the meter. I have lodged a complaint in WBSEDCL office in Saltlake near Tank no. 16 on 25 April, 2017. Action is yet to be taken.

                                  Dear wbsedl,
                                  I am an anonymous resident of vill - chandipur. P. O - taradaha, p. S - klc. Dist - south 24 pgs. Sir my complain is not anout any particular person. Neither it meant for bringing vengeance. Yet sir 98 percent of my villagers dont have legal electricity connection. They obtain electric by means of hooking. Some of them are poor. Yet some have sufficient means to obtain electricity by way fair and legal. But they dont do so because they dont want to. My request to wbsedl please atleast visit our village and atfirst warn these men in a stern manner and ask them to obtain electricity by means fair and legal. If they don't comply take strict legal action against them. It's is not only you who is loosing money but we the legal users too suffering from these malpractices. Please visit our visit and warn these men at first.
                                  Yours sincerely
