The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $600. I have never been late before losing my job in August. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $195 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through the cold months without gas 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. Every dollar goes to the account in Vijay's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $600 goes: • Water arrears: $400 • Reconnection and late fees: $60 • Down payment on a payment plan: $140 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Vijay

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vijay.

    • Vijay P. JatOwnerAnswerPhoto verified3h ago

      It's all in the list in the story. water arrears is the big one at $400, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Appreciate you taking the time.

  • Stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best

    • good luck, Vijay. This could happen to any of us. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.

      • Thinking of you, Vijay. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust

        • So sorry you're going through this. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Odesa.

          • thinking of you and your family, Vijay. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better

            • Thanks for sharing this, Vijay. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Ogbomosho.

              • take care. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours.

                • Sending strength, Vijay. Hope this works out for you.

                  • So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'll check back for the next update. God bless

                    • So sorry you're going through this, Vijay. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
