Keep the heating on at Remedios's home in Calamba
Help Remedios cover an overdue heating bill so the household stays safe this summer.
🇵🇭 Calamba, Laguna, Philippines1,055 views
The heating account is 3 months behind. I received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on December unless I pay $150. I have never been late before my partner leaving the household.
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 two young children, and going through summer without heating isn't safe. Without it we can't refrigerate insulin and food, or keep the house at a safe temperature.
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 $150 goes:
• Utility arrears: $85
• Reconnection and late fees: $25
• Down payment on a payment plan: $40
Thank you for reading my story.

Hang in there, Remedios. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.

looking forward to the next update. Wish I lived closer to Mumbai so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Guarulhos.
You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
Sending strength, Remedios. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Calamba
Rooting for you. Hope you get there. I hope December is when things finally get easier.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Remedios.
It's all in the list in the story. utility arrears is the big one at $85, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Good question.
hope things get better soon, Remedios. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Swansea.
Best of luck. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Tokyo.

Sending good thoughts, Remedios. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
