surely if you were living and working in Germany then you were not living at her home address?? Not sure how your adress history can be messed up.

i was working away but giving her hundreds a month to sae her house from being reposessed.
She never informed me she was taking me off the elec roll and did it secretly.
Is that what you would do to your partner then ,knowing his address history and obtaining credit would be messed up?
I asked her not to say i was working abroad,and thats the payback i get.

She would have received a letter from the Electoral Officer asking her AT THAT TIME to put down who was living there. You weren't living there.

She took 500 off me a month even though i wasn't there all the time,as long as she gets discount eh???????

If someone cheats benefits they're presumably dishonest in their personal life as well.

But is she she a benefit cheat? I am trying to find that out.

You weren't there. So you weren't entitled to be on the electoral roll.

Go and take your desire for revenge elsewhere. Unless she was claiming Income Support or Housing Benefit, I fail to see how the money you sent her could get her into trouble.

I'm not sure that's true. My son is at uni and lives away from home but he is still on the voting register at our home address. He gets a postal vote.

Surely if the OP was only away on a temporary contract, his address in the UK would have been at the GF's flat?

If you read from the beginning u will see i am not seeking revenge,just clarity.
The address was my home and i work self employed form march to november abroad.My point is i supported her while i was away ,yet she tell the council i am a lodger when i am here at hers,Sh never told them that we live together half the year !
To them i am a sub-tenant,although i moved in so we would live together,sometimes working away.It is her house though.

Thankyou for reading correctly.It is her house and we live together,and my job away helped her keep her house with 500 a month donations from me(mugs)
It was my only address here and now i am back on elec roll and only have a few months address history instead of 4 and more.She put herself first!

You sending her money back to help her keep her home doesn't make you a 'mug' it makes you a kind, decent person who helped your GF.

Your GF taking you off the electoral register when you didn't live there (quite clearly you didn't, you lived abroad where you worked) doesn't make her a bad person or a selfish person, it makes her a sensible person. Why should she pay council tax at a rate for living as a couple when she was not doing so?

She hasn't committed any kind of fraud, you were out of the country and when she filled in that form, she told the truth. You are just bitter because you have since decided to leave her (if the reason is just this situation, that seems melodramatic to me!) and you are concerned that you now have gaps in your credit history. Yes, I can see why that would bother you, but you would have gotten that situation anyway had you moved to work abroad, had you not lived with her etc.

The fact you gave her £500 a month to help her out is irrelevant, you were not a lodger, you were a partner and you helped support her with money you earned whilst working away, which to me, is what you should be doing if you were her partner - I don't think its something you can fairly moan about now, just because you have since decided to move on.

As you clearly state, he was a partner and therefore it was fraud to claim as a single person. She should have declared her partner and then it would be a joint claim.

So yes OP, she is guilty of fraud if all you say is correct.

Whether or not you report her is up to you but I think you should tbh.
