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

Help Ștefan cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.

The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $350. 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 $60 first, which I don't have. I live with a disabled brother, and going through the rainy season without heating 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 $350 goes: • Heating arrears: $250 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $80 Thank you so much.

    Hope things get better soon, Ștefan. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Iztapalapa

          Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ștefan

          • Ștefan Daniel PopescuOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. heating arrears comes first ($250) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. I'll keep the page updated.

          Rooting for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

            is there anything that isn't money that would help Ștefan?
