Non Receipt of Security Money

Address: West Bengal

This is to bring to your notice that I am yet to get the refund of the security deposit aginst my old meter no 3693782 which has been surrendered long back. I fail to understand that why being a customer I have to follow up with your Organisation when I think its your duty to make the refund to me. I expect you to please let me know about the status about the above mentioned refund by 3 working days.

Regards
Ashimjyoti...

Faulty meter reading & excess bill amount

Address: West Bengal

Sir,
I am a consumer of cesc limited ([protected]) kolkata and i am very much astonished to view the electric bill of may 2011.
The bill shows the total unit of 248 of may 2011 whereas in may 2010 it was 174. It is totally ridiculous.
I think the meter reading is not taken or may be the meter is faulty or the person not take right meter reading.
Due to excessive meter reading the bill of may 2011 will display the...

Very Little time given for payment of Electricity Bill

Address: Howrah, West Bengal

I am a subscriber of CESC. Every month we are receiving bills between 17th and 20th of the month with due date around 21st to 27th, thereby giving us a week or 10 days at max to pay the bill, failing which they charge penalty. Isn't there a guideline in place where the Utility Providers have to give a minimum time frame to their consumers to pay the bill. Even this month, i.e. May 2011, the bill has not even been generated on their website,...
