Water shut-off notice: help Tashana pay $200
A disconnection notice for water arrived and Tashana needs $200 before September.
🇯🇲 Jamaica1,686 views
The water account is 2 months behind. Tashana received a disconnection notice that says service will be cut off on September unless $200 is paid. She had never been late before a reduction in hours.
Tashana called the provider and asked about a payment plan, but they need a down payment of $35 first, which isn't available.
The household includes three children under ten, and going through summer without water isn't safe. The children would have no light to study by.
Tashana 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 $200 goes:
• Electricity arrears: $125
• Reconnection and late fees: $30
• Down payment on a payment plan: $45
Thanks for reading all this.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Tashana.
It's all in the list in the story. electricity arrears is the big one at $125, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Happy to explain more.
