Gas shut-off notice: help James pay $100
Help James cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this the cold months.

The gas account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $100. 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 $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months without gas isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
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 $100 goes:
• Heating arrears: $55
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $35
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

is heating arrears the biggest cost or is there more coming?
It's all in the list in the story. heating arrears is the big one at $55, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Ask me anything else.
best of luck, James. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from Mumbai.
