Keep the electricity on at Angela's home in Birmingham
A disconnection notice for electricity arrived and Angela needs $850 before September.

The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless I pay $850. 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 $155 first, which I don't have.
I live with a disabled brother, and going through the cold months without electricity 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 $850 goes:
• Water arrears: $460
• Reconnection and late fees: $160
• Down payment on a payment plan: $230
Thank you so much.

Your post was clear and honest. Please keep us posted. Greetings from Buenos Aires.
Thinking of you, Angela. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Addis Ababa
Keep going. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Dhaka this morning. All the best.
