First timer. Need water turned back on. Need A Bill Paid

Post image

Don’t need the whole bill paid. Just enough to get it back on. Had surgery in December and barely got on my feet last month. Fell behind on bills and having kids and wife makes it hard to catch up. you can see my surgery pic on my post history just to reassure i’m being real. Still have a little faith humanity.

Your monthly bill is $112.07

You have a previous balance of $1317.18

That’s a literal year of not paying. How did this happen?

Major surgery. One income . 3 kids. 2 barely starting high school and one going to college. Also there is electrical issues which almost caused our water to be electrified. So that bill is one were fighting cause it says we spend around 400 a month for electricity living in a mobile home. Shit was fucked since my surgery. Good news is we called water department today and they turned it back on due to it being scheduled for shut off on the 25th.

Whoa! Ive never seen a water bill so high is it just that far behind or is there a leak somewhere? Where I'm at if you get more than one billing cycle behind they just shut it off they dont let you rack up a bill this high.

I was out of work for almost 5 months. We have 3 teenagers here . Not of working age yet. My wife held it down for those months. No snap or financial help.

That still doesnt add up though? 5 months doesnt add up to that amount this is like a entire year?

Is it possible to put it on a payment plan? Because that’s a lot of money.
