How to escalate a WBSEDCL complaint

Forward the complaint number to your group so nobody has to search for it mid-outage.

By SMS: Register your mobile number with WBSEDCL; 'No Power' complaints can then be lodged by missed call from the registered number (details under 'Know More' on the Contact Us page).

The WhatsApp number 8900793100 is for reporting network defects/dangers with photo and location. WBSEDCL warns it never asks consumers to call a number via SMS/WhatsApp about disconnection; genuine SMS sender IDs end in -WBSEDCL-P/S/T. Durgapur township has pockets served by Durgapur Projects Ltd and DVC. The unofficial domain wbsedcl.com.in is not the official site.

Complaint not fixed? How to escalate

Every distribution licensee in India must run a Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum, and every state has an Electricity Ombudsman above it. Work up the ladder; keep your complaint number from step one.
