CAB trying to help me against the CSA
February 26, 2010
I’ve finally found a site that isn’t orientated to the parent with care. everywhere you look its if you dont pay well take you to court. ive been threatened with my license and passport and bailiffs.
i paid no problem for years n lost my job in 2006 i went self employed for 18 month n granted didnt pay. i then got a new job and the letters started comeing in again. first of all it was i owed £1200 this was paid at £90 p/w by deo for approx 4 months. i heard nothing after that for approx another 4 months. thinking i was in credit i let it run as no contact was made with my employer then low n behold a letter lands on my doorstep saying i owed £4500. this then rocketed to £5500 they now take 40% of my wage im in the security industry how the hell are you supposed to live when youre weekly bills come to 55% of your wage ???
ive been to the CAB and theyve asked me to get together tax reports etc for the last few years which ive done and another appointment is booked in 3 weeks. any savings ive had are gone. the CAB said theyll put together a letter does anyone know who this is to ????
the CSA have properly fucked me up………….

Hi Ian,
During all of this, did you keep the agency up to date and notify them of changes in your circumstances at the time the change happened? – If not, retrospective change will not be considered.
If you did keep the agency up to date, to ensure alleged arrears are correct, you would possibly benefit from requesting your Data Protection File and a complete account breakdown, there’s a template letter in the downloads section at http://www.afairercsaforall.co.uk the agency now require a £10 processing fee for this, do not sent cash.
Who / where your correspondence needs to be sent to, really depends on which stage your case is at?
So Chall the CSA have another way of making money by charging people £10 for a processing fee.
Next they will charge us for breathing.
Hi Reece
The ability to levy a charge is as per The Data Protection (Subject Access) (Fees and Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations 2000
Maximum subject access fee
3. Except as otherwise provided by regulations 4, 5 and 6 below, the maximum fee which may be required by a data controller under section 7(2)(b) of the Act is £10.
The agency took this step at the end of last year. I totally disagree with this stance.
Anybody who requests their DP file and gains a successful outcome on their case as a direct result from info/contents of their file, should write to the agency and request a full refund of the fee (A template letter will be added to afairercsaforall asap).
At the moment i pay £100.66 a week, which i dont mind because its for my daughter,so i thought, my daughter turns up at my home for her weekend stay, with old clothes on andholes in her trousers, and shoes, i ask her why and she tells me her mother will not get new clothes for her, i ask her mum why and she puts the phone down. Her mother is now a manager of a pub on full pay, which leads me to think its all going on her and not my daughter,if was switched from the old system to the new system then the money would go on the right person. My daughter turned up at my home last tuesday in tears, i ask what was up and she said her mum had thrown her out of the car over a chat of new clothes, her mum replied by shouting in her face i have no bloody money. My daughter is still with me at this moment, and this aint the first time
