Can anyone reason out why she still gets £160 a month from me?

January 19, 2014

I agree with the very basic principle of the CSA but the system they use is so bad it’s almost laughable.

My wife and I split up (amicably) and we have 2 children. When we split we agreed that we would both share the children’s time 50/50. However as soon as I left the home this changed and she started thinking how much money she could get from me. I’m not guessing at this because it’s what she told me. Cold I know!

So, she kept hold of the children for as much time as she could and then informed the csa. Now, I love my children and never had them for someone else to look after. I fought her in court and it went in my favour – Thank god for forward thinking judges (middle aged mother by the way).
So now although we share the children’s time pretty much equally she still get’s £160 a month from me. Can anyone reason out why?

* She was never means tested
* She earns 50% more than I do
* She gets all the child benefits from the government
* She only had to make one phone call and never had to prove anything (took the judge to prove she was lying and to reduce the amount from the CSA)

So, she gets more money than I do, more time off (works less hours than me), all the child support payments from the government, All the savings she has hoarded away, and now gets me to pay her a nice sum each month for treats and pocket money.

Don’t tell me the CSA is working or in it’s current state is a good thing. It’s so completely biased that it will never work in this form.

P&*^%d off

    Its because she gets the child benefit…this is what csa go by.

    It will all be changing soon where a pwc and nrp come to a much amicable agreement and children not used as weapons like this….phone child maintenance options they will be able to offer more advice and when this change is definitely going to happen….and unlike the csa the number is free!

    This is a typical reason why the CSA is out of touch and has been for years, it’s biased towards the pwc normally the mother. Can’t wait for this change to take place
    Oh and watch out for comment from Sarah Louise white??? It will be a negative one because you are a bloke

    How are you doll? Yes this Sarah hacks me off because I seen her name pop up a few times now telling the Nrp to keep it inside his trousers or comments like ” a child is not just for Xmas” real helpful bitch ain’t she.
    She will typically accuse me of being a trol like others do but they can’t see who the real trol is lol, I just react to these people.
