What's the situation with your 3 children? I understand you have them for 3 nights a week, if this is the case then the £300 a month you are paying in maintenance needs to be reviewed as you are having them almost half the time as your partner, also this means you should receive child tax credits and part of the child benefit. How would your partner feel about this if you broached this with them? I understand you probably don't want to rock the boat as regards doing anything that may reduce the time you get with them but at the moment I don't think you can be affording to be paying out this amount.Aug GC £63.23/£200, Total Savings £00
