The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on February unless I pay $550. 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 $60 first, which I don't have. I live with a newborn, and going through summer without electricity and water 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. The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here. Where the $550 goes: • Utility arrears: $350 • Reconnection and late fees: $110 • Down payment on a payment plan: $90 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
