I hope you understood my post below. I tried to keep it short and simple as possible.

If indeed there is a problem with the service neutral connection/s integrity you will not only damage electronic devices from over voltage you will damage 120V motor appliances/equipment from under voltage. Like the refrigerator, Dishwasher, Washing machine, ect. As one of those devices is put on Line the voltage will drop on that Line, leg, of the service feeder conductor. The other Line, leg, feeder conductor the voltage will rise.

I assumed from your OP you took voltage readings at the mains when experiencing the voltage problems. L1 to neut, L2 to neut.
