Keep the electricity and water on at Thomas's home in Nottingham
Help Thomas cover an overdue electricity and water bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom560 views
The electricity and water account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on July unless I pay $450. I have never been late before March's medical emergency.
I called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $125 first, which I don't have.
I live with three children under ten, and going through summer 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Thomas's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $450 goes:
• Gas arrears: $220
• Reconnection and late fees: $70
• Down payment on a payment plan: $160
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Updates from Thomas
28% there. I made the first payment toward down payment on a payment plan. Thank you.
Small update. $107 so far, the first invoice got paid this week.
Thank you all. We're at 6% now ($25). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for reconnection and late fees is now scheduled.
