Keep the heating on at Josiane's home in Saint-Denis
A disconnection notice for heating arrived and Josiane needs $450 before October.
🇫🇷 Saint-Denis, Île-de-France, France869 views
The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on October unless I pay $450. I have never been late before an unexpected car repair.
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 summer without heating 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.
The money will go directly to the utility provider, and I'll post the paid statement here.
Where the $450 goes:
• Water arrears: $260
• Reconnection and late fees: $95
• Down payment on a payment plan: $95

Praying for you, Josiane. I hope things turn around soon. Take care.
You're not alone, Josiane. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Josiane
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. water arrears is the biggest at $260. Happy to explain more.
So sorry you're going through this, Josiane. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Brooklyn.
Good luck, Josiane. I hope things turn around soon. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
Good luck, Josiane. Hope you get there. After 24 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Josiane. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Greetings from Lahore.
Hope it all works out. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Kumasi.
So sorry you're going through this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Austin this morning
Wishing you the best. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from New Delhi.
Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Saint-Denis.
So sorry you're going through this, Josiane. Looking forward to the next update. God bless.
