Subject:

1. Punjab State Power Corporation declares each and every Electricity Meter as defective and sent Power Consumption bills on average basis.

2. Mr. Balihar Singh 94644-68108 visit every household with new Electric Meter and demands Rs 200/- to get the meter changed if inside the house and Rs 400/- to change the meter outside the house premises.

3. Mr. Balihar Singh says that the cost of Meter is Rs 10,000/- which will be charged from the Subscriber in instalments.

4. All the Electric bills paid by the consumers describes the Status of Meter OK.

Dear Sir,

We are the subscribers of Electricity as previously the electricity has been provided by the Punjab State Electricity Board, but this is for the first time that the Power consumption bills have been sent by the Private operator viz. Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd. Kindly look in to the following factors.

1. A/C No. J54GT330268Y, Joginder Pal, Nehru Nagar, Phagwara shows Meter Status OK for the bills dated 11/12/2009 and Bill dated 07/02/10. and all the Bills paid in the last year.—The only difference now and in the previous bills are that the Electricity supply is being handled by the Punjab State Power Corp ltd for the first time. ---The reason of harassment is this.

2. A/C No. J51CF420238A Bhag Mal, Madhok Hardware----Bill sent dated 07/05/2010 delivered to the subscriber on 19/5/2010 (Evening) Last date of payment by Cheque 21/5/2010 and by Cash 24/05/2010---Average bill means Meter is Defective.

3. J51CF420239H, Bhag Mal, Sardar Music House----Bill on average basis. Means the Meter is defective.

4. J51CF420240X Bhag Mal, Guptta Di Hatti---Bill on average Basis---Means the meter is defective.

5. J51CF421088F Narinder Paul, Near Madhok Hardware---Bill on Average Basis---Means the Meter is defective.

6. J51CF421206K Ramesh Kumar, Railway Road, ---Bill on Average basis—Means the meter is defective.

7. J51CF420236P Bhag Mal, Near Seehra Watch Co, ---Bill on Average basis---Means the meter is defective.

Points to be considered:

1.The list is much more. The information provided is to judge the modus operendi of the Electricity Department.

2.The bill has been sent to the consumers on the basis of maximum consumption during the year---It is not on average basis but on the maximum basis.

3.When the meters are working perfectly then why the bills have been sent on average basis.

4.No reading detail of New Reading has been supplied to the consumers.

5.The energy meter if it is fulty then it would have been reported. And if it is faulty then how all of a sudden the meters of all the subscribers of the town got defective and there is need of changing all the meters of the subscribers.

Prayer:

1. The bills should be revised according to the meter reading recorded by the department.

2. Kindly order your staff to check the reading and issue bills according to consumption.

3. This is highhandedness of the Electiricity Department as the meters of all the residents of the town could not be get defective.

4. Kindly get the rectifications in the bill done to avoid the consumers with mental and physical harassment on getting the bills rectified.

5. Consumers have the right to get the meters tested for accuracy as it is highhandedness of the department that all the meters are defective.

6. There is no detail of addresses of the officials in the Punjab Government Website regarding the Punjab State Power Corporation Ltd’s officials in Major board and corporations details on the Punjab Government website.

Thanking you,

Yours Sincerely,

With reference above I hereby request to state that the meter bearing no-2488686 installed at House no-101, favoring Madan Lal S/o Desa Singh having account no-J53 ST44-1577P-L is not in proper working condition as it keeps on working even when the main power supply switch is turned off. Due to which the consumption for the last four months has gone upto four times the consumption it was during the same period in the last year detail as mentioned below.
Period Year 2010
Consumption units Year 2011
Consumption units Difference
July & August 681 2200 -1519

You are requested to check the meter and get it replaced at the earliest possible as the charges towards the electricity bill has baffled the monthly budget. We shall be highly obliged if a prompt action is taken in this regard.
Yours truly
