The deposit (refundable) is not the right of discharge (non-refundable) Many customers think that they will be refunded extra money that they paid when they signed the contract. However, they should confirm in their contract that what they paid at the time was a refundable deposit and not the “discharge fee”, i.e. the cost of the cylinder.

All other distributors do not charge a deposit, but the “derecho de alta” or cost of the cylinder. Therefore, if you have a cylinder from Cepsa, Galp Energía or Disa Gas, confirm with your agent that the cylinder is yours and, furthermore, that you have not paid any “extra” cost when you signed the contract.

On the other hand, if you are a customer of a cylinder supply and you want to refill it, you should call your distributor or go to the nearest gas station and ask for a refill. They will pick up your empty cylinder and give you a refill.

At the same time, if you have the Repsol Non-direct debit contract, with which you can refill your cylinder at the gas stations, it means that you have paid for the container (the right of discharge) and you can keep the cylinder or even sell it.

How to dispose of butane gas

Normally, you will be able to unsubscribe by phone and receive the documents and the deposit (if applicable) online. However, some agencies will ask you to go to the office to sign the cancellation directly on the contract.

On the other hand, if you do not know which agency corresponds to you, call the main distributor, whether it is Repsol, Cepsa, Disa gas or Galp, and provide your zip code so that they can give you the telephone number and name of your agency.

For the return of the cylinder, you can request that they come to pick it up at your home or go to the office of the agency in your area. In this way, each distributor will indicate you the procedure to follow and whether or not you will be refunded the deposit.
