Keep the heating on at Claire's home in London
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Claire needs $850 before May.
🇬🇧 United Kingdom880 views
The heating account is 2 months behind. Claire received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on May unless $850 is paid. She had never been late before February's medical emergency.
Claire called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $160 first, which isn't available.
The household includes a parent on oxygen therapy, and going through winter without heating isn't safe. We would also lose the ability to run the medical equipment at home.
Claire is working on getting back on her feet, and wants to pay it forward once steady.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $850 goes:
• Heating arrears: $570
• Reconnection and late fees: $135
• Down payment on a payment plan: $145
I hope life is good to you.
