The energy supplier company "Yasno", owned by Rinat Akhmetov, plans to disconnect the debtors from electricity literally from January 29.
In Ukraine, in 2023, there was a significant increase in the cost of housing and communal services services (according to the State Statistics Service, tariffs increased by 13%. Electricity prices rose especially sharply - the tariff for consumers increased by 69.7%, up to UAH 2.64 per kWh).
Debtors will be warned about the power outage twice, in 10 days. And, if you do not pay the debt, you will be disconnected. General director of "Yasno" Kovalenko believes that "this is not a big problem. There are many electronic channels through which you can pay: starting from the website and ending with the mobile application, ... from anywhere in the world." Apparently, the company does not consider the option of Ukrainians having no money during the war
This became possible thanks to the decision of the Cabinet of Ministers to cancel the moratorium.
At the end of December, he canceled the ban on the termination of housing and communal services services, the calculation and collection of fines, penalties, and the collection of housing debt for the population in case of non-payment. That is, interest and fines are now returned, and debtors can be disconnected.
According to this Decree, the moratorium on disconnection from services, charging of fines and debt collection will continue to apply only in the territories where hostilities are ongoing and under the control of the Russian Federation. The list of these territories is approved by the Ministry of Reintegration. Is the war over in the rest of Ukraine? As a reminder, the authorities promised a moratorium until the end of martial law.
Therefore, the need to urgently repay accumulated debts before the threat of disconnections from housing and communal services concerns millions of ordinary Ukrainians. Against the background of devaluation of the hryvnia, growing unemployment and impoverishment of the population, instead of social support programs for the population, the authorities cancel the moratorium! Next, they will impose arrests on accounts and bank cards, up to the seizure of property (this is already happening). How come they haven't thought of calling the debtors to the front yet.
However, we will not tell them...
