My ex can work, he just won’t – what can I do?

My ex hasn’t paid anything towards our son in all his 14 years, he claims disability benefits, however he has stated to my son he could work if he wanted to, he had a large compensation payout many years ago, which enabled him to purchase a six bedroomed house, and he owns two cars between him and his wife, am I able to make a claim?

  1. @andrew jones…. What a prickish answer!!…. He has to pay for his kids that’s why! It’s his f****** duty!!

  2. Sorry to burst you greedy bubble compensation payments don’t count towards Csa calculations unless its over 64 grand and he receives a income of the money so if he has purchased a house good on him if he has 6 bedrooms he will be able to have your son for over night stays , but you better watch out if you son stays with him for more than 3 days a week it will be you the Csa hound !!!!!:-)

  3. Its not that I want to be a sponge or that im greedy, the fact us that im a single parent of one, and work full time to support us, I am currently struggling with the financial demands of a teenage son, and have asked my sons father to help cover the costs of his school meals, which are £15 a week and towards my sons army cadets camp trips and equipment, which his father has blatantly told me no,

  4. I got to the bit where it said “he had a large compensation payout.”..then I stopped reading.

    Kinda knew that it would end up with “Can I make a claim”…

  5. @ wendychong90… i’d like to clarify something for you as you are quite clearly misinformed…. the fact that you ex’s girlfriend works has absolutely NOTHING to do with money he pays you!!!!!

    You and the father ONLY should pay for your child NOT his new girlfriend….. I wish some people would get their facts right and consider things from a moral perspective….. MOTHERS should NOT expect their ex’s new partner to pay for their child(ren)…. ONLY mothers and fathers should pay for their kids!!!!!

  6. The issue is not whether he had a compensation pay out or not, its whether I could claim because he had, he had this payout around 12 years ago, our son is now 14, I have not recieved a penny from him in all this time, and neither have I tried to, or even asked until now, i have not even recieved the standard £5 a week which should be taken from his benefits

  7. @ Melissa
    Can see from your response to this posting what side of the fence YOU are from.
    Whilst I don’t condone fathers who go out of their way to avoid paying towards their kids up keep, I bitterly object to being forced by a fucking government agency and dictated to on how he WILL pay…YOU mellissa might be a little bit more understanding and supportive towards NRP’s who are robbed and hounded by the CSA and in a lot of cases by greedy money grabbing fucking ex’s that see the kids as a meal ticket and the father as a cash machine.
    I will use this scenario as I done before and then ask you Mellissa , WHAT would be your thoughts on NRP’s then ? It appears from your reply,you don’t have much time or sympathy for fathers or absent parents as the CSA like to call us even tho I for one was relieved by the mother of my parental/ father duties because the bitch didn’t want around anymore.
    So heres the scenario to you.
    If you met a guy who had a past and a money grabbing ex who milks him for hundreds of pounds each month for a child she took away from him because she wanted nothing to do with him anymore…and you and he had a child of your own along with a child you had from a previous relationship…your kids suffer and go without because his past want leave him alone to get on with his new life.the bottom line is . As far as bitches like you are concerned. We ain’t entitled to a life after the ex…this is the problem and main reason why most of us on this site dispize the CSA and all it stands for and it certainly ain’t pulling kids out of poverty.
    Andrew jones’s reply was certainly a bit lame and pointless…but I understand his point , pure anger and frustration of how this system treats NRP’s and how biased it is towards pwc.
    Now I’d love to read your reply and your thoughts on NRP’s mellissa ….I’m pretty dam sure they won’t be very pleasant and certainly will not be supportive of us.
    So bring it on….it’s been a while since I been posting on here and am ready to rip into someone like you…you arrogant bitch!!!
    Gonk

  8. I cant even be bothered to read all the abusive above, I would suggest a chat with Inland Revenue/Benefits Agency.

    I think a lot on here need some serious help, judging by your posts.

  9. fuck off Karen

  10. @ Karen… And no one can be bothered with you either…. Stick to what you know… Abuse the system to get vengeance on your ex because you cannot move on with your life….

    Jog on….

    You lot are so warped and need help, lets get back to what it should be about – the children – you both had them so you should both support them!

    Nicola join the facebook groups child support agencies failings and others for advice and support.

    Karen fucking Bedford…this is the problem…..WE both don’t support them…only the nrp does…you arsewipes just bleed the nrp with the csa’s help.
    gonk
