Keep the electricity and water on at Hussain's home in Faisalabad
A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Hussain needs $100 before March.

The electricity and water account is 2 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on March unless I pay $100. I have never been late before losing my job in November.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with an elderly mother, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
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 $100 goes:
• Gas arrears: $55
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $20
Glad we found this place.

Thinking of you. This could happen to any of us. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Gdańsk!
Best of luck. Hope this works out for you. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out
take care, Hussain. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 11 people at work.
