A man from Linz (67) was sent on an odyssey when he exchanged his climate bonus for money. Presumably because there was not enough money in reserve.
“Only cash is true!” This also applies to most of the 200,000 Upper Austrians who today want to receive and redeem their climate bonus vouchers. Such as a person from Linz (67), who deposited his data with Finanz-Online, but still received a letter with the bonus of 500 euros. He was not at home, received a bail bond and that was the beginning of an odyssey, as his wife Margit L. reports: “He immediately wanted to exchange the voucher for cash, which should be possible at the bank99. At three branches he was told that I couldn’t because there wasn’t that much money. Do you have to drive God knows how far to get your money?”
Only successful on station 4
Bad luck or system error? The “Krone” asked bank99, the former Postbank. Here people wondered what the problem was. “We work closely with Swiss Post and know where and how many vouchers are delivered. This is also the basis of the construction of cash,” explains spokeswoman Kathrin Schrammel. However, they want to investigate the incident because no customers are allowed to be turned away. Because the pensioner only received the 500 euros at Station 4, at the main post office in Linz.

In Bad Wimsbach-Neydharting, a 62-year-old wanted to collect the climate bonuses from his tenants (24, 29), went to collect the notification certificate from the post office – disguised as a woman – and failed at the post office partner.
