Hello. My name is Amanda and I'm a mother of 3. I am employed full time. For the most part I have been able to keep all of my bills up to date. Except for one....the electric bill. I have needed extensions; reduced payments and I have even used a medical certificate towards the bill because of my son’s health. Well over time it got really out of control. Mon power wants paid....I've offered weekly payments....automatic payments that they take themselves. They will not agree to any of that. My trailer is all electric. There is no gas. I have to keep the lights on.
I don't want to ask anyone for anything. Plus, the fact my bill is extremely high. And they will not budge on anything less. I understand....I do. And I'm grateful that I've been able to keep it on this long. I have no other options. Asking for help to pay the bill is the only option. It’s not a couple hundred dollars. That I could come up with. It’s a very high amount! Anything helps. I'm going to the DHHR in the morning to ask for emergency help as well. Thanks for reading. I live in Clarksburg West Virginia. Mon Power is my electric provider. My shut off date might be Thursday...or sometime soon after. I can provide more details. I'm not entirely sure what kind of help you offer. Thanks again for your time.
