The company has responded within the prescribed time (and by recorded delivery, of course

What benefit fraud are you referring to?
What is wrong with tax avoidance?
What's wrong with gaining some small amusement at the "Catch 22" type situation?
I do take responsibility, more then you'll ever know. :cool:

The last thing you write is very good to know. Must say though that it doesn't come across in that way going by your first post. Which is probably why you have got the responses you did. To be honest you came across as smug and as if you didn't care at all.0 -
As an NR father, I am quite proud to announce that I pay the absolute minimum in child maintainance I can, I have even increased my pension contributions so that I pay even LESS.
Why?
Because my childs mother is a useless, drug taking, workshy little slag. I have no idea what the CM is being spent on.
Instead, as my CM reduces, I put the extra saved into a LTSB Young Saver so DD can have a car or university education.
My main concern would not be about money if any child of mine were living with someone who I thought of as useless, drug using and workshy. Id be more concerned about the kids day to day welfare than playing games over money.0 -

I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!0 -
Seems this forum is turning out to be the self righteous slagging posters and gets out of hand. Every persons circumstances are different.
There may well be self righteous people out there, but posting on an open forum that sort of attitude and you wonder why the staff at the CSA don't give a f**k...!
Lots of people quite often feel like that, but keep it too themselves and let it pass, at the end of the day he should, and everyone else for that matter, be thinking about the welfare of the child/ren and not be complaining so much about the way things are...!
We live in a democracy, if you are sooooo upset about it, start a petition, and get the 100,000 names on it for a parliamentary debate... I mean, that can't be too hard can it, after all the CSA screws enough people over...

The only people who will have a giggle is the CSA, I bet they have a right old laugh at us NRP who they stitch up on a daily basis, they probaly all try and out do each other at tea break about how much they can lie and stitch a NRP up!!! The best one i was told was "don't worry we will leave you enough to live on!" 6 weeks later £80 aweek take home pay if i was on income support £96! "At least !!!!!! Turpin wore a mask when he stole from you!":beer:0

Income support isn't £96The best one i was told was "don't worry we will leave you enough to live on!" 6 weeks later £80 aweek take home pay if i was on income support £96! "At least !!!!!! Turpin wore a mask when he stole from you!":beer:
it's £64 per week. I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends. It won't be a mistake that I make again!0 -
1. You still slept with her, so says little about you...!
2. It doesn't really have anything to do with you what she spends CM on, as long as your child has clothes, food and a roof over her head that is not for you to decide...!
Oh she wasn't always a slag, we were in a relationship for 3 1/2 years. She then decided on New Years Eve to turn her back on her family so she could have a second shot at being a teenager and putting her legs in the air at every opportunity and being drunk all the time.
My daughter regularly arrives at my house with no shoes or in clothes that are dirty. Oh, and there was the £300 arrears she built up with the nursery last year which I went and paid off...PreludeForTimeFeelers wrote: »Congratulations, you sound like a really fine upstanding citizen.

Thank you. Certainly more so than her mother anyway, who has never worked a single day in her life and claims every single benefit imaginable at the expense of upstanding citizens.
I am sure she will be proud when she gets to the age of 16 and wants to go to university, and good old Dad will be the one to help her.
Maybe when she is older, she can have access to all the documentation I have relating to my ex partner stopping me from having contact for no reason whatosever, and see all the time, money and effort I put into fighting for contact with her.
I now enjoy every other weekend, every Sunday, half of all holidays and we always go and do something enjoyable together because she tells me "Mummy doesn't take me to the park" or "Mummy doesn't take me anywhere 'cos she got no monies"make_me_wise wrote: »My main concern would not be about money if any child of mine were living with someone who I thought of as useless, drug using and workshy.

Oh no don't worry, that was initially my main concern as well.
Unfortunately I since discovered that social services are about as much use as a chocolate teapot. Taking drugs "is perfectly normal" for a lot of parents, was their words.0 -
Cosmic-dust-- That was what i was left with at the time,, my income support money and my morgate payment, The CSA don't allow you your council tax in your protected income!!!:T:T0
