Any experience since REMO's were transferred to Bury St Edmunds?
I applied to have the REMO enforced and to have some help collecting the arrears 2 years ago <sobs> and since everything was transferred to Bury St Edmunds in June last year I've heard very little. I can never get through to them on the phone, and it's taking them a month to reply to any emails. The order expired in April…

What happens in the 'gap' between CSA case ending and CMS case starting?
I am the paying parent and the CSA case ends in a couple of weeks. CMS told me on the phone that they start to set up the new CMS direct pay after the CSA case is closed, and this can take up to six weeks. Does anyone have experience of what happens during this gap? Do I accrue arrears which I then clear when the new CMS…

Government petition to make the parent receiving child maintenance provide receipts
In my opinion when a parent is paying child maintenance all of the money being paid should be spent on the child/children involved. Now I know that not all parents receiving child maintenance use this to fund their social lives and I am only going off what has/is happening in my case. However I believe that if receipts had…

Using an umbrella company to avoid child support
My ex is an airline captain earning £10k per month. He sets up a company, he is the director, the only employee and pays himself £600 pm. He generates a pay slip from his 'company' to 'prove' he's on £609 pm and gives that gleefully to the CSA. They use this pay slip to calculate my maintenance which works out at £100 per…
