Can't you get the jest of this.. You can not keep going on like this forever.. First it is the water turned off, then it is the electricity, then the internet, then the phones.. You can not keep going living beyonds you means.. When expenses exceed income something has to give eventually. You need to make changes somehow. Find the way and do it.

Find out why they shut off the water; before shutting off something as vital as water, the water company usually gives warning notices. Either the notices were intercepted or someone representing you requested the water be turned off. Find out.
Was that what the deed to the house was used for, to misrepresent someone to the water company? Are you unwelcome squatters trying to drive you out of the house by depriving you of water? What are they doing for water? Toilets?
In the meantime, if it is still raining, put some buckets out and catch rainwater for the animals.
gareth - My water bill has skyrocketed lately yet we're cutting down on usage. I just received a water,trash, sewage bill in the mail for $241.38.
I am sorry MacWolf... I did not mean to insult you or anything.. But each time a service is disconnected and re-connected, you pay a fee for that happening, don't you? And that adds insult to injury in your financial losses...Somehow you have to get yourself ahead to fend off those disconnect and reconnect fees..

Relax OBB, you never insult me
I welcome all comments, pro or con
Though I'd prefer more (if any) from female blondes with big gazoos who want to molest and support me - heh heh

I tossed Monty off my back porch yesterday. This morning I found all of his belongings inside my back porch. I tossed them outside including his TV.
Unfortunately, since my outside door won't lock, I can't keep him out. I'll hafta wait till I can afford a decent lock to be rid of him
Are you telling me that someone in the house will just unlock the door? Do not think a lock will do any good.

Liz hates Monty with a passion. Beside if I could afford a key dead bolt only, nobody would be opening anything.
The bill is probably from the work Edison did after the fire... Just a guess.
They may have a program to do payments over time, and sometimes the bill can be forgive altogether. If the bill is for electric use only, then I am with the Red Nun. Someone is tapping you shizz.
What all are you running and how big is your house? Did you get a new meter on your house? There are tons of people complaining about very high electrc bills after getting new "smart" meters. My bill on a newer 2,300 sf house with two HVAC units never breaks $200 a month and I think I pay 9.5 cents per kilowatt. My furnace is natural gas so my electricity is cheapest in the winter but my gas bill goes up but still not much of a bill.
you may want to check your hot water heater. You can get a lot of sediments on the heating elements or in the bottom of your tank making it run a lot harder and electric hot water heaters pull a LOT of juice. It can draw 30 amps at 240v which would be 7,200 watts.
It is all family.
