Heating shut-off notice: help Marie pay $600
Marie is behind on heating bills after a reduction in hours and needs $600 to avoid a shut-off.
🇩🇪 North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany1,796 views
The heating account is 3 months behind. Marie received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on November unless $600 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Marie called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $155 first, which isn't available.
The household includes two young children, and going through the rainy season without heating isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
Marie is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
Every dollar goes to the account in Marie's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $600 goes:
• Heating arrears: $250
• Reconnection and late fees: $95
• Down payment on a payment plan: $255
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
