The electricity account is 4 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on January unless I pay $100. 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 $15 first, which I don't have.
I live with a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through the rainy season 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.
Every dollar goes to the account in Umar's name; a copy of the paid bill will be shared in the updates.
Where the $100 goes:
• Heating arrears: $75
• Reconnection and late fees: $10
• Down payment on a payment plan: $15
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, Umar. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 13 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Multan.
Hope things get better soon, Umar. Hope this works out for you. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Antalya this morning
thinking of you, Umar. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes
Best of luck, Umar. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless
so sorry you're going through this, Umar. This could happen to any of us. God bless.
