After Naftogaz Ukraine introduced a new gas deposit product, many Ukrainians decided to buy gas for the winter at a summer price. True, there was a condition: you buy gas at 5.72 per cubic meter, and transportation costs (70-90 kopecks) are paid in the heating season.
Whether gas will become cheaper or more expensive, the consumer has already bought it, which means that the price remains stable. It is unlikely that gas will become much cheaper in winter, few people hoped for it. But if it rises in price, then there is no need to pay extra. And people planned to save by buying a thousand or two cubic meters of gas at a summer price.
However, the account to which prepayment should have been made was not open, and contracts were not concluded. But literally today, amendments to the contract came to the local management of gas supply and gasification. According to information that still needs confirmation, if the gas price drops from October to March at least a few kopecks, the consumer will have to pay for it at a new price.
The money on the "gas deposit" will be frozen until April. For example, a client bought a thousand cubic meters of gas at 5.72 UAH, having paid 5720 UAH, and gas cubic in October without transportation began to cost 5.65 UAH. It is at such a price that you will have to pay starting in October, and money from a deposit can be returned only in April.
Well, you need a lot of money to buy a deposit and pay monthly for gas! So, if someone decides to conclude such an agreement, then you should carefully read its terms so as not to miscalculate. As soon as we receive confirmation of the above from official sources, we will immediately tell our readers about this.
