Have you compared the bills?
You’ve included essentially none of the important details like price per kilowatt or usage

All the banks and CUs are subject to the same guidance which says accounts should be charged off when they’re uncollectible or 60 days, whichever is first, so this would have happened everywhere

Banking guidance says overdrawn accounts should be charged off no later than 60 days.
Any calls were a courtesy you weren’t entitled to. That was just them being nice
Don’t overdraft and it won’t be an issue.

Open a new account elsewhere

Your post is asking about federal rules and you didn’t include your state
Regardless, your cost basis in a gift is either the donors adjusted Basis or FMV, whichever is “worse” for you, so it doesn’t matter since you don’t have a gain

The 1099-k rules were delayed another year
And It’s not income

You can’t deduct expenses for a hobby
So you just sold random stuff you owned? That doesn’t require any tax form let alone a business tax return

Are these business assets or household items? Your choice of phrasing makes it difficult to tell

It’s not a perk. It’s an extension so the irs can develop guidance and the payment processor can become compliant

Spending $800/month so you can 'do things' suggests your priorities are out of whack especially given how small the other line items in your budget are
