Keep the electricity and water on at Skylar's home in Lexington
A disconnection notice for electricity and water arrived and Skylar needs $600 before April.
🇺🇸 Kentucky, United States741 views
The electricity and water account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless I pay $600. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $195 first, which I don't have.
I live with a newborn, and going through the cold months 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Skylar'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: $150
• Down payment on a payment plan: $200
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
