Problems with CSA payments

Barbie please tell me you must be joking Get a job Barbie have some pride

This is to the head person over child support, My daughter was not able to pay her lawyer after she won her case in getting her kids back, so was this lawyer allowed to pay you all off so the decree could be missplace or not recorded? for when she came there no body could find her decree.I'm writing because this mess up cause her to lose her job and now they are homeless,but she did hear you all are sending money to her ex who don't have the children after he brought in the old decree from 1980s. it's has been over 3 years,Tuesday Fed 19 I'm going to send a leter to the news cause this don't make since

I think you should take some time off Lorraine and go travelling. I know being a mum is hard work Its not an impsossible task as a single mum. I really think your wasting time living off hand outs though, I worked for every penny saved up had a career break then had kids off my own finances. Now there a thought...

The csa are rotten to the core, I work for the gov and they have been told to collect owed money basically at any cost or methods. Corrupt I think is the word

The guy travelling is a legend hes clearly deserves credit hats off to him!

I thinks its an outrage I spent 15 years abroad and visiting my kids each month to escape the one sided payment arrangement single mums are happy to accept. you want kids the maybe you should pay your huge debt to them when you start working again.

I would like to say I'm one of the lucky ones but unfortunately I'm not , I split with my ex partner in January 2002 the 25th to be exact and I have received £30 altogether three seperate payments of a massive £10 each time. My ex partner payments have been calculated at £56.90 a week so by doing the sums he owes my daughter quite a bit to date. So as we go by being told they cannot track him down or trace where his working that not to mention the times he put hisself into mental hospital to be excused from contributing to his only daughters upbringing. We find that his off travelling the world spending twelve months in Spain then your off to Germany , Ireland , Canada , America sending us pictures of hisself on Daytona beach so while we get by I get told by the capable csa staff that it doesn't cost a lot to travel. So despite several phone calls telling them where his living even where his working I'm still told they are still investigating the case so almost six years on I'm still no further forward my daughter is still not living half of the fancy life her so called father is living. I now found out that he is going to apply for a work permit for America which is a joke because at present he's not able to work due to stress. My last little gripe and believe me I've saved the best to last he has recently put in an grievence against the arrears and the csa reduce the arrears by one year without even telling me I found out casually one day while ringing them , they didn't even have the decency to tell me that not only had a grievency been put in but that they had reduced the monies owed to my daughter.

After a year of the CSA doing absolutely nothing with our case, my ex-husband and I did come to an arrangement that we were both happy with to ensure that our children were provided for. I asked to opt out of the CSA's involvement and they flatly refused to allow me this. Now they have made up a huge sum of debt that they claim that my ex-husband owes, are taking it directly from his wage, but our children are not receiving any of this money. They are paying it to the "Defender Of The Realm". No one will tell me what this actually means. No one is answering my letters and my ex-husband and I are banging our heads up a brick wall of indifference. It's our children that are suffering as a result. It seems to me that no parent can ever win with this organisation no matter which route you try to take to ensure the welfare of your children, which, afterall, is meant to be the whole aim.

The CSA are representing the greedy if you ask me. The CSA charge you for a carer allowance, in other words you have to pay the Parent who wont give you access to your child so they can afford to go out every weekend, have a top of the range mobile. The children very rarely have any benefit of the money provided. The latest complaint that makes me laugh is the Parent who is on benefits not receiving all of the money taken from the non-resident Parent, I totally agree with this, there is no reason why someone should be rewarded for sitting at home all day. I believe that Parents who give their child away via adoption should also be made to pay.

Has any one tried to start a new claim recently? I would like to make me ex pay me more each month above what the court agreed in maintanance currently stands at.
