The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless I pay $750. I have never been late before losing my job in December.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $140 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through the rainy season without electricity and water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $750 goes:
• Utility arrears: $430
• Reconnection and late fees: $165
• Down payment on a payment plan: $155
If you're reading this, thank you.

thinking of you. Looking forward to the next update. My husband and I read this together. God bless.
Hang in there. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from El Paso.
Hang in there. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Negombo so I could bring a meal. Blessings.
