CSA behave like robots on the phone

October 29, 2011

My 3 children are supposed to receive £5 per week maintenance from their self-employed father. Payments stopped 4 months ago. When I called to ask for the arrears to be collected the robot on the phone said that the system didn’t show there were any arrears. When I asked her to contact him to ask for the £87.24 she said she would if she could find some contact details for him at some point in the course of the day.

I suggested the innovative method of using the telephone or writing a letter to him which seemed to throw her into confusion.

Then she said that as there were no arrears shown on the system she could only ask him for a contribution. These robots are not there to help you but to follow a procedure and not answer questions. I would have had more success talking to a child.

CSA Fraud

October 29, 2011

My partner left me and my daughter back in April when she was (just about) 4 months old. He toook everything and run off with an ex of his. This ex and he have 2 children together.

I made a claim for CSA in June 2011 and have since had one payment of £150. Now, here’s the dodgy part. He and his wife have put a claim in to the CSA for their children, this is so that money toward my child is significantly reduced.

They are back together. The CSA tell me there’s nothing that they can do!?

Why not?! Surely THIS IS FRAUD!!

CSA want £9k for a child my partner has never seen!

October 29, 2011

Where to start…. my partner has been asked to pay £9k arrears for a 6 yr old child he has never set eyes on. The child was a result of a one night stand, is not on the birth cert and he has never been sure he was the father.

He has had no contact with the mother since their one night stand. He recalls having a letter off the csa a year after she was born, but took no notice as he hadnt Read more

Child Support Agency is staffed by angry, bitter women

October 28, 2011

The answer is very simple once you accept the fact that men have no rights as fathers in America. The entire Child Support Agency is staffed by angry and bitter women, that are more then willing to use unethical actions in order to criminalize fathers.

Many people say to kill your wife, but that won’t stop the racketeering in the system, and your ultimate destruction. The only way to turn the problem around is to make the civil employees in the system live in fear, then they will begin to think twice about their corruption and the direct consequences. Real fear is a great motivator for change.

So if your thinking of ending it all, at least go out making a difference for the rest of us victims…besides there’s thousands of them to choose from and only one wife that leads directly to you. Of course I’m only referring to legal actions…lol.

Struggling to support my children with no CSA support

October 28, 2011

I left my husband in 2000 and moved back to london. The child support agency down south were in contact with my husband straight away. We come to an arrangement and my husband paid £50 aweek for both children. In 2001 the communcation between my exhusband broke down. He cancelled the direct debt for my child support.

I return to scotland in april 2001. I filled in several forms for c.s.a support and never heard any thing. I even called falkirk and the england branch who delt with my case down south. still no communication. My son got custody of my son during the diviorce process.

But He still never paid any maintence for my daughter. In 2005 or 2006 my son who had stayed with me two weeks out the four returned to me full time after hiring his own lawyer. i have still never received a penny from my exhusband or c.s.a my son is still at college and still carry the burden by my self and have done since the day i left him.

I have ended in finacial trouble supporting my children who i love dearly.

But i am sick of hearing about the hard done by fathers what about as hard working single parents.

Mothers pay the Child Support Agency too

October 28, 2011

I split from my husband over 3 years ago and for a time the children lived with me. I never asked for any money from him as he was still living in the house and as far as I knew (he had told me) he was paying the mortgage. He continued to tell me how skint he was and couldn’t afford this and that. He insisted that I didn’t move out of the village we livid in as he wanted to see as much of the children as he could. Fair enough I thought as he is the father and loves them just as much as I do. My daughter ended up moving in with her dad as we had an argument and I called her bluff after her Read more

CSA called me a slapper

October 28, 2011

My daughter was born in 1999, her father has paid excatly £77.08 in her 12 years on this planet….. fast forward to 3/10/10 and a letter saying I should be recieveing £40 a week….great I thought……..yeah until I met the “liars” that are the CSA employes….. Nov 10 I recieve a letter saying my ex is disputing paternity (now this is just a staling tactic as its hurt his pride I am not scared of him anymore) and wants a DNA test as 5 other men could be her dad…

Never once did the CSA ask him to produce names so they could be DNA tested but they happily sent me a letter infering I was a “slag”…..DNA came and went and the test proved on a probability of 36 billion or so that she WAS his daughter…………. since then the CSA have gone after him for their DNA money and screwd my daughter over, she isnt a prioroity ive been infomred this morning, the case has been with legal enforcement for just over a year……….my daughter is under the DR because she cannot believe her “doner” has done this to her and i am now on anti-depressents due to the stress this is causing…. ive no idea what to do anymore.

The Child Support Agency doesn’t account for my debts in their calculations

October 27, 2011

When the CSA first contacted me they told me debts I had to settle for the family could not be taken into account, and hence reduce my payments. I have had unpleasant ‘phone calls from the CSA, they have attempted to twist the facts, and ignored their own information sheet stating that such debts can be taken into account. The ICE has condoned the CSA falsely telling me that Debts cannot be taken into account. The ICE has also changed my complaint, and the Parliamentary ombudsman so far has failed to act, completely ignoring the numerous errors the CSA has made. The CSA/tribunal service promised me a local hearing, then changed the location tp 60 miles away, did not tell me, and made false claims to the court.

Does anyone know of an organisation or person that can get these people to stay within the law, admit their mistakes, and treat innocent people who have lost their homes and families with a little respect

CSA constantly harrasses me for more money

International collection of CSA money

October 27, 2011

I am a 48 year old single mum, who’s son was born in Scotland. His father is scottish and during the relationship has been abusive in many ways. He is an alcoholic and also addicted gambler. He used to beat me and abused me mentally and emotionally. I have brought the criminal acts against me before courts, 3 times. During 2006 I had to flee my home and seek refuge with womens aid because the father of my son had threatened to kill me. The police advised at this point to leave the house for safety reasons. To illustrate the case further I should point out, that my son was born in Glasgow in 1998.

I had left my partner in 2000. I am a German national and because we haven’t been married, my son is also of German nationality. During the years from 2000 to 2006 I have always maintained the contact between my son and his father and also the rest of the family. I have not received regular payments of child maintenance. Sometimes the father would pay what he thought was right and mostly to manipulate me.

I have tried to deal with the CSA. I was told that I maybe shouldn’t persue the case further, because it wasn’t worth taking the risk for my safety. The money I should receive (if at all) was too little to take the chance of being harmed. At a later point I was told that the father couldn’t be found, although he never left the area. (He is, by the way, a self employed bricklayer.) Eventually, in 2007, I left the country because I was so frightened for my life. The situation was also too difficult for my son, who didn’t want to see his father anymore. My financial situation was also getting much worse since the father had started court actions to have visits from his son (which I always maintained). His aim was to ruin me financially.

After we had left the UK, I tried to contact the CSA, just to find that a collection was not possible from a country other than the UK. In the meantime my home country has paid maintenance for my son until he was 12 years old. Now he does no longer receive financial support.The contact to his father has ceased and I have no information where he lives. But I am certain that he is still in Scottland. Seeing that the CSA has not been able to find him while I was still living in the UK, I believe that I have no chance whatsoever now. My son is 13 years old and his father has paid him some money for about 3 years in total. It is my sons wish to study. In my home country it is a criminal offence when fathers (married or unmarried)don’t pay child maintenance.

There is a jail sentence attached to it. In the UK it seems to be a laughing matter that single parents have to shoulder the financial support for their children completely on their own. Can you, please, give me advise in order to receive the outstanding amount, although I do no longer live in the UK?

I’d be very greatful for an answer on behalf of my son.

Kind regards,
Elke.
