    Great news. When the CSA finally caught up with my ex, they were going to allow him to pay his arrears and the regular amount himself (without their intervention), but I kicked up a bit of a fuss and told them that without a DEO, I doubted if I would see any of the money. I pointed out that he had moved house three times, and jobs several more times, without telling them. They agreed to a DEO, which kicked into place within two months.

    Thanks DUTR, Kelloggs and Kingfisherblue.:beer:

    Kelloggs: Thank you again I will email the complaints department this week.

    Kingfisherblue: Thank you, I will also phone the CSA asking if a DEO, NRP has done exactly the same before.

    Update

    Thought I would just update this post...

    2 weeks ago I received a letter setting out payment dates and amounts, I was so thrilled. (though I do have to wait to see if I actually start receiving the payments now)??????

    ..

    Hi, great news. I just wanted to say congratulations. I posted earlier in your thread saying I doubted my chances of ever getting financial support from my ex. So....I take that back and will think positive!

    Hope the payments start soon.

    Thanks Hardball, I must admit if I hadn't of emailed my M.P. I know I would
    still be having the same conversations with the CSA now. Yes, positive thinking and I hope you and Karenx receive the financial support soon that your children rightly deserve.
