The utility provider must give you advance notice as follows:
In the modern world, most of us will rely on electronic banking in some form or another. Whether it’s using a card to pay for items in shops, or online transfers, we seamlessly use a blend of digital finance tools and cash in our everyday lives. Unfortunately, this means that there is also a myriad of ways that scammers can target consumers, especially if they are a high-risk group. And with so many different scams doing the rounds, it can be hard to keep track of what you’re meant to look out for.

There are a variety of pro bono programs in Missouri. Some are funded by state and federal funds such as the four Legal Services Corporation programs, some are affiliated with social service agencies, some are affiliated with circuit courts, some are limited in scope such as disaster response, some are affiliated with law schools, and some are affiliated with a single church or local agency usually involving one volunteer attorney.

Defunding LSC as the White House budget proposes would strip away access to legal representation for those who need it most. When justice depends on income, it isn’t justice at all.
In Missouri, a Power of Attorney (POA) is a legal document that allows you to appoint someone (an agent) to act on your behalf in financial and/or healthcare matters. Missouri recognizes both general and durable powers of attorney, with the latter remaining in effect even if the principal becomes incapacitated. A healthcare power of attorney allows you to designate someone to make medical decisions for you if you are unable to do so.
