Electricity shut-off notice: help Yun-seo pay $700
Help Yun-seo cover an overdue electricity bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇺🇸 United States1,590 views
The electricity account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless I pay $700. 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 summer 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 Yun-seo's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $700 goes:
• Utility arrears: $430
• Reconnection and late fees: $115
• Down payment on a payment plan: $155
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thanks for sharing this, Yun-seo. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Arlington.
