Gas shut-off notice: help Karina pay $200

A disconnection notice for gas arrived and Karina needs $200 before April.

The gas account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless I pay $200. 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 $25 first, which I don't have. I live with an elderly mother, and going through summer without gas isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by. 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 Karina's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $200 goes: • Utility arrears: $105 • Reconnection and late fees: $50 • Down payment on a payment plan: $45 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

    • Thinking of you. Hope you get there. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Veracruz.

      • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Karina?

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about utility arrears, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.

      • So sorry you're going through this, Karina. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.

            How is Karina doing now?

            • I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Kisumu.

              • Sending strength, Karina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care

                • Praying for you, Karina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Nha Trang.

                    Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Winnipeg.
