Alright girls I hate to do this again but I'm asking for help
About a month after I moved out of my last permanent residence, the water company who provided water got in contact with me and told me that they had been miscalculating my bills for some time. As a result, I owed them approximately £1500.
Because I was no longer living there I no longer had access to meter readings and thus couldn't prove that it was bullshit. After seeking advice, it became clear that my only choice was to pay it, and after my old housemate didn't respond to my attempts to get in contact with him about it, it became clear that my only choice was to pay it alone.
Over the past year and a half I have been doing exactly that, paying it off as I could. This has not been fast enough for the water company, and a couple of days ago I got an email from a law firm informing me that the matter has escalated to the point where legal intervention is on the table.
So, long story short, I need to pay this off right fucking now.
Unfortunately I also have other bills to pay and I cannot afford this. If I could, I would have paid it off already, because having them threaten me with debt collection every few days for the last year has not been a stressless experience.
So I am turning to the kindness of community. Please do not put yourself in a bad way to do this, but if you are able to help out you would have my undying and eternal gratitude.
