The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $450. 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 $110 first, which I don't have. I live with three children under ten, and going through winter without electricity and water 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $450 goes: • Utility arrears: $170 • Reconnection and late fees: $80 • Down payment on a payment plan: $200 Thanks for reading all this.

due date: 2026-08-10
bill type: Utility arrears
