Compensation for CSA mistakes

November 26, 2009

I have been fighting the CSA for the past 9 years and so far have received over £1200 in compensation for the appalling mess they have made in my case amounting to gross negligence!

As I sit here writing I’m still putting the pressure on them to get the job done! My case has been past to all offices around the country and not one of them can get it right. I have also taken the matter to ICE twice and am about to do it again!

The CSA have lost paperwork, lied, and casued untold hearache not only to myself and my daughter but also to my e partner. They havebeen unable to figure out a monthly plan for monies and have now advised me(After taking 4 years to complete) after doing a full reassessment of the case, said that my ex now owes me £3.8k in arrears. It’s just not right! The ironic thing is that my ex is on a low wage and if for instance he can only pay £10 a month extra it will take him 32 years to pay the amount off, by which time, he and I will be on a pension and our daughter will be 48years old.!!!!

My MP has been such a great help over the years. There have been times when the situation has nearly brought me to breaking point, but all I can advise people, and I mean both fathers and mothers is to keep fighting! Write down every conversation with the CSA, sho you are speaking too, time and date so that when you need to write a letter of complaint everything is concise and in their faces!

As the CSA has admitted that they have made so may errors on my case, I’m pursuing them for the £3.8k as an Advanced payment from them directly. I wont let this one go and will also support my ex in an complaint that he makes regarding the arrears. Its about time the CSA was made legally accountable for their actions!

Hope this will help.
