Well received, but still room for improvement: This is how the start of the Austrian repair bonus can be summed up aptly. Because not every customer who wants to have his mobile phone, hair dryer or vacuum cleaner repaired leaves the store satisfied.
On the one hand, this is due to – as reported – some strange price increases since the subsidy came into effect. On the other hand, there is also a lack of knowledge about how to get the 50 percent discount (up to 200 euros). It is not known everywhere that you have to create a “repair voucher” in advance, which can then be used once within three weeks.
Only two payments are made
But even with entrepreneurs, not everything is just luck. Some of them complain that the responsible authority, Kommunalkredit Public Consulting, paid them late. “All refund applications submitted before the 15th of the month will be paid at the beginning of the following month,” the Ministry of Climate Protection clarified. Therefore, only the third payout is just around the corner.
