The heating account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $100. I have never been late before a reduction in hours. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature. 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 $100 goes: • Gas arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $25 • Down payment on a payment plan: $10 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Venkat

    Hope it all works out, Venkat. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Take care.

            Sending good thoughts. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
