Podgorica, (Montena-business) – At Jugopetrol’s Gas Stations in Montenegro there is no price rounding and quantities bought in Euros are paid according to the official course, claims Dragan Rajevic, director of the company’s retail sector.
Reporters of Montena-business in Podgorica yesterday were convinced in opposite, in fact, for DEM 20 they got gas that is worth 10 euro.
Rajevic told Montena-business that the automatic machines were modified to euro, and that all complaints came from customers with bad intentions.
“Claims about rounded prices are malevolent. The Montenegrin Government determines the gas price and it is DEM 1,7 or 0,87 euro for super gas, 0,66 euro or DEM 1,3 for oil. These prices are rounded at 2 decimal units because of the automat” said Rajevic.
According to him, Jugopetrol still hasn’t got, by now, reports about wrong prices’ rounding in its retail objects, and the sellers have schedules with the gas prices in both currencies for the most often bought quantities.
“The buyers should pay attention at the gas stations if they got exact quantity of gas that they paid and if not they should protest. There is no reason for them to think about the price of gas” claims Rajevic.
He said that the sellers at the gas stations have problems with change, because there is a lack of small Euro coins.
“We try to overcome this problem by telling our employees to ask the buyers, before gas delivery, which currency they will pay and to inform them about the lack of euro change, or returning change in DEM” said Rajevic.
The only unwritten report addressed to Jugopetrol, was referred to the incapability of paying in euro, added Rajevic and called on buyers to deliver their complaints in written form, with their name and address.
The reporter of Montena-business, as a regular citizen, gave DEM 20 to a worker at the gas station in Zabjelo, Podgorica’s suburb, and got a quantity of gas equal to 10 euro, instead of 10,22 euro, which should have been returned to him according to the official course. The same happened at the gas station close to the stadium, where a worker didn’t return to the buyer ‘only’ 11 euro, which made us conclude that the quantity above 10 euro is measured vaguely, and strangely enough, it is never on behalf of the buyer, and never precise.
