Help Zeeshan with an overdue gas bill before the cold months
A disconnection notice for gas arrived and Zeeshan needs $100 before March.
🇵🇰 Lahore, Punjab, Pakistan698 views
The gas account is 2 months behind. Zeeshan received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless $100 is paid. He had never been late before my partner leaving the household.
Zeeshan called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $20 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a disabled brother, 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.
Zeeshan is working on getting back on his feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $100 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $60
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $30

Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Zeeshan?
Thank you. If you're in Lahore I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. It helps to be asked.
hang in there, Hamza. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Zeeshan.
It's all in the list in the story. electricity arrears is the big one at $60, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Best of luck, Hamza. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update.
how is Zeeshan doing now?
rooting for you, Hamza. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. All the best
Hope things get better soon, Hamza. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. All the best
