Frequently Asked Questions

Rate, invoice and annual statement

Waarom staat er op de voorschotnota een hoger bedrag bij de BTW berekening dan ik betaal?

Wij berekenen eerst uw voorschot gebaseerd op het daadwerkelijke tarief van 2023. We houden hierbij een gemiddeld verbruik aan Gigajoules aan. Hierover wordt de BTW berekend. Dat is het BTW bedrag wat u op de voorschotnota ziet. De BTW wordt dus berekend over het hele bedrag zonder prijsplafond. Dit is zo vanuit de Overheid geregeld.
 
Daarna verminderen we het voorschotbedrag met de korting van het prijsplafond. Het prijsplafond is vrij van BTW.  Dit lagere bedrag ziet u als te betalen op de factuur.

Wat houdt het prijsplafond voor warmte in?

Om de kosten voor warmte betaalbaar te houden heeft de Overheid besloten dat Vaanster als jouw warmte leverancier een korting mag geven op het Vaanster tarief (ook wel genoemd het tarief volgens de leveringsovereenkomst). Tot een jaarlijks verbruik van 37 Gigajoules betaalt u € 47,38 per Gigajoules.

De meeste van onze klanten verbruiken minder dan 37 Gigajoules op jaarbasis. Verbruik je toch meer dan 37 Gigajoules dan betaal je voor iedere afgenomen Gigajoule daarboven het Vaanster tarief van € 90,91. 

Als je op "lees meer" klikt leggen we je alles in een video uit over het prijsplafond, jouw nieuwe voorschotbedrag en hoe we het prijsplafond administratief verwerken.

What is my current tariff?

If you log in to "my account" through the vaanster site you will find an overview of the variable tariff and fixed tariffs under the heading ‘My tariffs’.

Can I adjust my advance payment amount myself?

Yes, you can. In your personal account under the heading "my invoices" you can adjust your advance amount. This is within a certain margin, because the advance payment amount must be sufficient to cover the fixed costs.

What will be on my annual statement?

Twelve months after sending the first advance bill, the annual statement is prepared. Once we have collected all the meter readings, the system can start making the calculation. With the annual statement, the actual consumption is calculated based on the initial and final readings. The fixed costs are also calculated. The fixed and variable costs are added together and that is the amount you have incurred in total costs that year.

My annual statement does not seem to be correct.

If you suspect that your annual statement is incorrect, please contact Vaanster.

When will I receive my annual statement?

After you have lived in your home for one year, you will receive an annual statement.  This will be sent to you approximately 14 months after the first move-in date.

What is my monthly advance bill made up of?

The advance bill is not based on actual costs. Ultimately, everything is settled via the annual statement. You can adjust the advance payment amount yourself via your personal account. The personal tariffs also include the tariffs on which the advance payment amount is based.

Can I request a payment plan?

Sometimes you need some space and it can be nice to agree on a payment schedule for an annual statement, for example. We understand that. If the invoice is not yet due, this can be arranged through the personal account. View your invoices and click on the icon next to the invoice line and set the terms for a payment arrangement.

My payment via monthly direct debit failed.

Via your personal account you can check which invoices are open. Always check first that the direct debit option is activated. If it is not, you can change it directly on your personal page.

Did the monthly direct debit fail for another reason? Please contact Vaanster's customer service to discuss how this can be resolved.

What happens if I don’t pay my invoice?

If an invoice is not paid, we first send a reminder to still pay the invoice. Then, if an invoice is still not paid, we send a reminder. If the invoice is still not paid, we will send a notice of default.
