Have given up totally with the CSA now.

Originally had filed with CSA when DD was 3yrs old (will be 16 in November !!) and have received total of approx £ 1,100 which was 2 payments back when she was approx 7/8. He (biting tongue not to call him worse) changed his job and became a taxi driver which the CSA stated they could not calculate how much he would owe until end of financial year, as he would declare income then, as he was ignoring all letters and home visits by them. He has three children living at his home, 1 being his child, so if I was due any maintenance I assume it would be a pittance.

Can anyone advise me if they have taken the legal route with maintenance and sued their ex's !!!!!! off !!! ( Getting rather irate now, deep breath) And how much roughly would this cost. I know there is still no guarantee that I would receive any backdate from him, but is now the principle.

You could push the CSA harder for enforcement action. I beleive they still have the powers (thru the courts) to suspend the NRP's driving liscense. That'd teach him, seeing as you say he is a Taxi driver. I know you wouldn't then get any money, but your not now are you!
