The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on April unless I pay $550. I have never been late before February's medical emergency. I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $105 first, which I don't have. I live with a disabled brother, and going through the cold months without electricity and water isn't safe. We can't cook, keep medicine cold or heat the home. 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 Sylvie's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates. Where the $550 goes: • Heating arrears: $240 • Reconnection and late fees: $145 • Down payment on a payment plan: $165 Thanks for being kind about this.

due date: 2025-04-22
bill type: Utility arrears

Updates from Sylvie

Update from Paris: the plan for down payment on a payment plan is now scheduled. We're at 21% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
