The water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $1,000. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $165 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through summer without 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 $1,000 goes:
• Water arrears: $520
• Reconnection and late fees: $170
• Down payment on a payment plan: $310
Thank you so much.
