Gas shut-off notice: help Lincoln pay $1,000
Help Lincoln cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this winter.
🇬🇧 Leeds, England, United Kingdom1,157 views
The gas account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $1,000. 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 $150 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through winter 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 Lincoln's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $1,000 goes:
• Utility arrears: $570
• Reconnection and late fees: $140
• Down payment on a payment plan: $290
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

We're at 15% thanks to 7 of you. I met with the utility company and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.
