i had intended to ignore any more of your posts but you seem to be hell bent on making this very personal.no one searchesd through someones posts to list items that i requested information on funnily enough that isnt the same as purchasing an item. when last checking i dont have a new dongle thing or a lap top. even if i did you seem to keep missing the point. I HAD NO KNOWLEDGE OF IT GOING IN, IT WAS OVER A 13 MONTH PERIOD WHEN I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY HOUSEHOLD CHORES OR MONEY I DID NOT SEE A BANK STATEMENT AND IT WENT IN IN SMALL AMOUNTS. ALL OF WHICH INCLUDING SAVINGS, OVERDRAFT AND MONEY BOXES WERE TAKEN bY MY EX WHO LEFT ME WHILST IN HOSPITAL IN 2003. WHAT HAS THAT GOT TO DO WITH A HOLIDAY 6 YEARS LATER. THEY HAVE SINCE MADE FURTHER OVERPAYMENTS WHICH I AM PAYING OFF AT £80 A MONTH SO I AM CERTAINLY NOT SOMEONE TRYING TO COMMIT FRAUD OR NOT TAKING RESPONSABILITY FOR REPAYING A FURTHER £4500. THIS I KNEW OF AND TOLD THEM YET THEY KEPT OVERPAYING ME FOR A YEAR! NOW PLEASE JUST GO AWAY. YOU HAVE BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN MAKING ME FEEL LIKE A CRIMINAL AND I WILL NOT COME ON THIS SITE AGAIN

Please don't let someone with an axe to grind get you down.
You are not a criminal.please don't let anyone make you think that.
We had the opposite with the tax people taking over 7k excess in tax over a three year period from my husband and if we had'nt looked into it we would never of got it back.
They never saw a problem we had to identify it ourselves.
The whole system is incompetent.
Anything from the norm and the government departments just can't cope.
I'm pleased to hear you had a good conclusion to your problem.
Good luck.

Helpful to whom?

I would like to think that now the OP is aware of what happened, that they pursued the ex criminally for theft/fraud - however he/she managed to get the OP's money. Now, if there were a partner, I would also think that it was a joint claim - so why if the OP's claim is accurate, are they just prepared to write the whole thing off and not pursue the ex partner for the money? So one of the partnership is a thieving scumbag who will rip off the other person, and one is incapacitated in hospital so that makes it okay for the thieving scumbag to do what they did? Or, was it a joint claim, joint bank account, and therefore the OP's partner had every 'legal' right to clean out the bank account?

Or, was it a single claim when living in a partnership, and therefore tax credits didn't know there was an ex partner to go after for the payment back?

Would it be worth disputing this?

Actually did you not do this already? Slightly different story there though.

So, this was actually back in July 2009 that the OP 'won' the case and was told they didn't have to repay? What year is it now? I had the impression that the 'win' had just occurred -(maybe I didn't read the OP correctly!). Seems odd to bring this up again a year and a half later - hey ho!

So, it was a joint claim from the post in the link above, so, um, why did they drop the whole thing and not go after the ex for his half at least?
