Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Eleanor pay $600
Help Eleanor cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.
🇺🇸 Savannah, Georgia, United States1,406 views
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 an unexpected car repair.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $170 first, which I don't have.
I live with two young children, and going through the cold months 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 $600 goes:
• Heating arrears: $290
• Reconnection and late fees: $120
• Down payment on a payment plan: $190
I hope life is good to you.

Good luck, Eleanor. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Savannah
