Incompetent CSA are reason why I don’t see my son much

July 5, 2015

I was paying my ex £200 / month for my son + driving 200 miles every other weekend to pick him up and drop him off.

My ex then moved further away and into a bigger house so needed more money, so decided to go through the CSA.

The CSA told her she was due an extra £54 / month so i agreed to this, but said that she would have to do half the driving.

She refused to do this and as such, i ended up seeing my son once/month.

She was quickly on to the CSA advising them of the new arrangements, which i agreed to and they said they would take an additional £30/month.

Having always paid by DD, i dont check the payments to the CSA, but received a phone call from them 5 months after the change advising me that i had arrears as they hadnt updated their records.

They requested that i paid the full amount of £202 to bring the account into line.

Having gone round the houses about their incompetancy and why they hadnt changed it, i offered to pay an additional £10/month to bring it back into line, they refused and advised that they would take 40% of the arrears back/month until it was resolved.

No concern about whether i could afford it or the fact that its coming up to xmas.

Apparantly, they have the right to take additional money out of my account without my authorisation?!?

So since the wonderful CSA have been involved, i see my son less, my ex gets more and they can rob me before xmas of money that i was going to spend on my other child, who seriously finances this organisation? oh yeah, me as a tax payer – absolutely disgraceful.
