(0/1217) I need to pay off the balance on my car insurance.
I was laid off back in January, and been unable to find a job since then. Since February, I've been unable to afford insurance payments, so I've been unable to safely use my car.
Unfortunately, the few jobs I can get with my level of physical ability/education require I be able to access a car. (Whether that be due to distance/non-proximity to transit, needing to use my own car for the job, or needing to be on-call.)
Additionally, due to my partner's worsening physical and mental health, we've made the decision to try looking out of the city for a job, and a place to live on our own.
Because of this, we absolutely need access to a car, in order to access things we need in the city. Things like my partner's doctor, our meds (at least until we can get them transferred), and (most likely) my employment.
Anyways, because I couldn't (and still can't!)Âą afford it, the balance went to collections. They've been harassing me for months, and I have been scrambling all that time trying to figure out what to do. I'm at my goddamn limit, and I don't see any other way out of this than asking for help to get it done.
I've included the email below, detailing what I owe. I'll be able to cover the Paypal fees - I just want this gone, so we can stand a chance of getting on our feet again.
I don't want to be forced to take a car-dependent job and to drive without insurance. Not only would I risk another run-in with the cops (last time was because I forgot to renew my registration), and risk having my license suspended as a result: I can't imagine what would happen if a collision happened without insurance.
Âą i am on unemployment, but because it's supporting myself and my partner, it's barely even enough for the basics. Sometimes, not even that much.
As I usually say: please help people in worse/more urgent situations first.
