  • i would keep ringing them they are useless at phoning back.
  • Ring them back yourself, a callback is usually a excuse to get rid of you ! from experience I have been told many times I would get a callback and to date I havent had 1 !! so keep ringing them if I were you.
    I hate the name child support and can't say it without a nasty feeling in my tummy. ...:mad:
    Dont shoot me down I am as PWC and a NRPP so I am at both ends of the stick and the CSA stinks !

    That sounds familiar, my partner is still waiting for a letter that they said they were sending him...................2 and a half years ago:mad:

    Usually if they promise you a callback they have 48 hours to do this...if they've not rang you within that time scale then I would call up again.

    I think it's the best way to get things done, and to make sure that your case is being dealt with.

    Failing that write them a letter and mark it 'Complaint' they have to deal with it then. I was told this by a CSA employee and what do you know a month after I'd done this my case was sorted out (after 2 years of being faffed about by them).

    Good luck :)
