I have been hospitalised 3 times this year with worry

October 25, 2012

My case was closed by the CSA in 2006, I found out through my ex and children, who are grown up now, that she did not receive a penny from the CSA. She even told them to stop all this some years ago.

I have debts to them for over £10,000, but when all this started she was getting money out of the joint account in all some £6000 in the first year of the. The CSA had never been told, till i informed them (twice) but they say they have never had this info and now are in the process of getting a order to sell my home.

My wife who is a pensioner now and disabled owns the property with myself, but because of my passed work history, being a contractor hardly any work over the last 10 years, she has had to pay the mortgage, so by rights it is her property not mine.

I am sick with worry over this as I myself have been hospitalized 3 times this year. What can I do to stop this?

CSA said I should not buy clothes for my children, I should pay the CSA instead

October 24, 2012

The CSA are taking me to court for a Liability order.

They have conveniently lost all of my correspondence regarding my appeal against there highly erroneous assessment (£400 a week after tax!!!) so, as they have no trace of an Appeal, they can take me to court.

I spoke to Margaret Cooper today, in their Enforcement department. I challenged her on all the things I pay for my kids that don’t go through the mother, including the school uniform I bought as the ex refused to.

Mrs Cooper’s reply was: that was your decision to buy those clothes and we don’t take it into account.

Oh, so I should just send my kids to school naked in future, should I?

Would you care to run your policy past Social Services before making anymore utterly stupid comments?

The CSA.

Chronically Stupid Association.

CSA hasn’t updated my calculations or payments

October 24, 2012

I’ve phoned them countless of times giving new information about my payments, i had to ring them 3 times yet none of the previous information was filed so at the moment there not taking payments from my account so now i have a debt with them.

The only way of paying them is to phone them each week to pay over the phone which costs me.

They haven’t updated or recalculated my payments when I gave them my employers details they still haven’t contacted them so now im paying more then i should and have to provide towards my new family which is a tough budget !!!

I wouldn’t mind but my ex cheated on me and kicked me out so money is tight but would be easier if the csa updated my calculation to what it should be.

I think the csa is the worst agency and in any case the male the dad always loses out.

CSA harrass me and my husband on a weekly basis

October 24, 2012

I have written here before but issues with the CSA continue to escalate and cause daily misery.

My husband is being pursued for a liability order of £35,000! He was forced to leave a professional career when a DEO left him with not enough to live on. For a period he lived with various relatives in a state of shock and depression. The CSA continued to accumulate arrears based on his previous job even though they were aware he’d left. He went to stay with family as his Father ws terminally ill. Obviously all arrangements were informal so no evidence to prove or dispute this.

Eventually, he agreed to settle down with me and raise my two children which he’s done for the last 17 years. I have received NO maintenance from my children’s Father as he decided to move abroad to avoid paying. What astounds me is that the CSA just open and shut my case because he is out of jurisdiction so there are no arrears accruing. I am fully aware that once my youngest child is 19 and the CSA no longer are interested that he can return to the UK free from debt or responsibility.He has no other children.

My husband and I live in misery due to the constant almost weekly harrassment and menace from the CSA. My husbands case is with ICE but that doesn’t seem to make any difference.The CSA have said in a letter that they are not interested in any information about his employment history as it won’t change any assessments retrospectively. They ar offering an interview but when they called yesterday and I spoke with them about the purpose of this I was told that they are not interested in information from us and it won’t make a difference. Is it worth going for an interview? has anyone experience of this? or is it just rubber stamping their position…

Finally, has anyone considered the European Court? I know there was a case years ago but I can’t find anything on the outcome. Are there any solicitors out there who could advise? We have no income as our business is failing partly because I have seriously ill health. Our lives are in ruin. Our children are distraught and it just seems so unfair that the CSA are selective in the children they chose to ‘try’ to support. Why should my two children be penalised? It really amounts to stealing from them to fund the lifestyle of another.

CSA assesses me on a figure they choose to use

October 23, 2012

I am self employed and run two small businesses. Business No.1 is a partnership with my second wife and made a profit last year, business No.2 is solely in my name and made a loss last year.

CSA have reassessed my case on the request of my ex wife and calculated that I pay an amount based on the profit of the partnership and will not take off the loss on business no. 2. They tell me that they take each business seperately and that business no. 2 gives me a zero assessment and business no. 1 gives me an assessment of £224.00 per month.

I have explained that my income for the year was less as I made a loss on business no.2 but they apparently don’t work it our that way, so I’m not assessed on my income, I’m assessed on a figure they choose to use – if I was employed and not self employed this wouldn’t happen – surely this cannot be correct.

Why does the CSA alienate NRPs?

October 23, 2012

My Dealings with the CSA started 3 and half years ago. After taking a call from the delight that is the CSA I confirmed my DOB, NI number and address then the individual then say are you denying ****** Fytche is your son! This was my first time I had spoke to them or had anything from them. At which point I pointed out I was going through a very costly process of going to court to get shared residency so I would not deny it.

fter getting Shared residency 6 out of 14 nights I was informed I would have to pay £158 per month straight from my earnings no Read more

My kids never see a penny of what I pay the CSA

October 23, 2012

A few years ago i was working for a company and paid the csa about £108 per week for my three children, although the work involved was often seasonal so my earnings during winter months were quite low, when i was of sick i still had to find the £108 and started to accumulate a debt of about £1800 from this then after several years i left my job through getting a lot of back pain as the job was very physically demanding.

Now for 2 years i was unemployed but the csa kept on adding £108 per week to the bill which now stands at over £10,000 pounds & due to fact they say i did not inform them that i was not working that’s my problem even though im sure i called them after leaving, the £108 per week was taken out through attachment of earnings order which they now are in the process of applying for a new one to pay this bill.

I love my kids have them stay with me from time to time and visit them buy them presents and things, but the worst part for me is they have never seen a penny of the money i have paid and are not going to see any of this money either where is justice and common sense?

CSA has no interest in my financial difficulties

October 22, 2012

Just wanted some advise following a recent re-assessment.

I had a very high paying job until Feb 2012 and have recently come off benefits following a new job being taken on a considerably lower salary (£15K less). Anyway my new assessment is only a £150 less than what I was paying – so my question is can I contest this as I know my ex-wife is working and receives certain benefits – are these ever taken into account or is their decision solely based on my income.

Which I have to admit will put in some financial difficulties – to which the CSA have absolutely no interest..

CSA wants to take more when I am already struggling

October 22, 2012

I have just had my CSA payments reviewed I was paying £39.00. And now they want 130.00 a month.

I am already struggling with bills etc but the CSA do not care. I told them that I have bills debits but they continued to insist the full payment. My son is doing a apprenticeship but they still tell me I have to continue payment. I do not see my children due to my ex’.

I have just learnt that if her child benifit has stopped then so should the CSA payment. How can I find out this information?

ex certainly will not tell me, and the CSA well they just get my back up and I end up getting so depressed and low so much so that I have thought of suicide it has also effected my life I have remarried.

CSA tried to enforce liability order on my home

October 22, 2012

I have just been back in Court with the CSA who have tried to enforce a liability order on the property my girlfriend and I share.

They have created a debt from back dating on numerous mistakes and made out in the Court that I had always underpaid.

The CSA are bare faced liars and will do anything to get money out of honest working men to pay for their incompetence and dodging parents who do not pay for their children.

I have proof that the CSA are wrong and not once Read more
