Gas shut-off notice: help Pamela pay $600
Help Pamela cover an overdue gas bill so the household stays safe this the rainy season.
🇬🇧 Swansea, Wales, United Kingdom691 views
The gas account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on August unless I pay $600. I have never been late before June's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $100 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through the rainy season 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Pamela's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $600 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $360
• Reconnection and late fees: $55
• Down payment on a payment plan: $185
I hope life is good to you.

Take care, Pamela. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings.
Sending love, Pamela. Shared this with my family. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
So sorry you're going through this, Pamela. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from San Jose
Stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Praying for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Birmingham.
Praying for you. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Please keep us posted. Take care
Take care, Pamela. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
Thinking of you, Pamela. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Colombo but we're thinking of you
Best of luck. 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. Thinking of Swansea
Sending love. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My sister had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Swansea.
