    I don't know what to think. The OP is obviously in a pickle and asking for our help but i'm not sure what help we can give. I feel a strange feeling of disloyalty with the OP because s/he has done something that I would never dream of doing and believe me. we were in a pickle financially but every thing is above board. I paid out nearly £600 a month of my salary when I worked to have my child looked after by a childminder and never got or ever expected any help for it.

    I'm just not sure whether we should be helping the OP out with support even if we don't agree with the circumstances or whether this situation really is beyond our normal kind, caring and surporting manner.

    Hi Mich,
    It probably seems strange to a newbies, but this particular poster has a history here of being adamant they were going to beat they system and poo-poo'ed lots of advice she was given. Seems the 'system' is back to bite her on the bum

    Be interested to see how 'adamant' they are now. Noone ever really knows the system....if we did, most of us would not have ended up in sticky situations and seeking advice from wonderful forums like this one. I have to say though, even though i am no expert, the facts certainly scream fraud.

    I'm a firm believer that NOBODY can go up against the system and win. There may be times when you think you've won but they'll always come back and bite you in the end. You can murder your next door neighbour and yeah you'll get in hot water for it but realistically, nobody really cares. However, steal from the system and the water you find yourself in is going to be boiling.

    Money is power afterall. :confused:
