Don't let Woo-jin's family go through winter without electricity and water
Woo-jin is behind on electricity and water bills after a reduction in hours and needs $600 to avoid a shut-off.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $600. 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 $65 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through winter without electricity and water 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 Woo-jin's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $600 goes:
• Water arrears: $350
• Reconnection and late fees: $120
• Down payment on a payment plan: $130
Thank you so much.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Woo-jin
Sure. The biggest one is water arrears, $350. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Ask me anything else.
Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Udaipur
sending good thoughts. Shared this with my family. Greetings from Enugu.
Hope it all works out, Woo-jin. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings!
