Don't let Rotimi's family go through the rainy season without heating

A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Rotimi needs $150 before August.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $150. 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 $25 first, which I don't have. I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home. I'm working on getting back on my feet, and will pay forward whatever help I can once I'm steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Rotimi's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Gas arrears: $85 • Reconnection and late fees: $30 • Down payment on a payment plan: $35 Glad we found this place.

  • So sorry you're going through this, Rotimi. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.

    • Shared it with a few friends. After 22 years in hospitality I know how hard it is to ask for anything. Greetings from Liverpool.

      • Thinking of you and your family, Rotimi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Arlington.
