Anyone who switched to the free market and had a fixed price relative to the protected market can object to the increases. That’s how
Bills have become the first concern of Italians, who helplessly watch vertiginous increases and often have to choose between paying the bills or putting the plate on the table. But in many cases, the increase in tariffs provided for in the contracts would be absolutely illegal and, therefore, should be challenged.
Francesco Luongo, spokesman for the Citizen’s Defense Movement, underlines with Adnkronos/Labitalia: contracts: those who switched to the free market and who had a fixed price in relation to the protected market, had letters of unilateral amendments to the contract delivered by the companies ».
«Arera and Antitrust – continues Luongo – issued a joint communiqué a few days ago, stressing that, in relation to these contracts, unilateral changes cannot be made, except in some marginal cases. Users who have received this letter should contact consumer associations or send a registered letter or certified email, contesting the unilateral variation and citing Arera-Antitruste’s opinion.”
“We are at the beginning of winter, the bills from 6 to 700 euros are about to arrive, we have no provision to block the posting of arrears, we have no provision that authorizes and imposes payment in installments. Do we want people in the square?” concludes Luongo.
