Citizens' money chaos in Trier: Ralf has to pay 540 euros in additional payment!

Trier, Deutschland - A shock for Ralf from Trier! The 57-year-old, known from the RTL-two documentary "Hartz and Warm", is faced with a horrendous additional payment of 540 euros for his heating costs. "Something can be right in the back and front," scolds the Hartz 4 receiver, who lives in the apartment with his partner. The invoice refers to the year before the Ukraine War when prices had not yet exploded. Ralf is stunned and wonders how this unexpected demand could.

The answer provides RTL two: The job center takes over the warm rent for Hartz-4 recipients, but too little additional costs were paid for Ralf and Hannelore in the previous year. Now the question remains whether the job center takes over the additional payment or whether the couple must bear the costs themselves. Ralf is convinced that the job center is responsible. "Either they accept it or they should print money," he says loudly. But whether the authority will go into this proposal remains questionable.
