Don't let Vrushali's family go through the cold months without electricity

Vrushali is behind on electricity bills after a reduction in hours and needs $150 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless I pay $150. 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 $30 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without electricity isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the 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 Vrushali's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $150 goes: • Gas arrears: $65 • Reconnection and late fees: $20 • Down payment on a payment plan: $65 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Vrushali

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

      • Vrushali K. DeshpandeOwnerAnswer

        Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. gas arrears comes first ($65) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Happy to explain more.

      sending strength, Vrushali. Hope you get there. Wish I lived closer to Peshawar so I could bring a meal. Love from Buenos Aires.

        I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I'm in social work myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Port Harcourt.

        • Akosua Kezia Ofori

          Wishing you peace. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We're a small family in Yokohama but we're thinking of you.
