Electricity and water shut-off notice: help Fani pay $100

The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. Fani received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless $100 is paid. She had never been late before losing my job in December. Fani called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $25 first, which isn't available. The household includes two young children, and going through the rainy season without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. Fani is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady. Every dollar goes to the account in Fani's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $100 goes: โ€ข Gas arrears: $55 โ€ข Reconnection and late fees: $15 โ€ข Down payment on a payment plan: $30 I hope life is good to you. - Anisa

    Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like

      How is Fani doing now?

      • Yogita R. Gaikwad

        rooting for you, Anisa. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Jakarta.

        • Meenakshi C. Chettiar

          Hope things get better soon, Anisa. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Enugu this morning. Take care.
