To think I may never get child maintenance

I have just got off the phone from the CMS again. My case has apparently been moved to yet another team and exP still isn’t talking to them or paying any money for DD. I last had a payment in October last year and since then nothing has happened. They have been discussing a deduction from earnings order since Xmas time but as yet nothing has been actioned!
I’m so frustrated, he currently owes over 12k in arrears as he has never willing paid a bean. Part of me thinks I should just close the case but this is for DD’s future. She’s almost an adult now and I have saved nearly everything I have received to give her when she needs it.

@Tzenl
Please create your own thread regarding your own issues. It is not etiquette to hijack someone else's, which you may not be aware of, as it derails the thread.

@Teasynurse The system is shocking. It shows up the fact that many dads (and a few mums) are more interested in screwing over their ex-partner financially as some sort of punishment rather than support their child. I have a family member in the same boat, and the lengths their ex will go to to avoid paying any maintenance, is sickening. It's all designed to "get" at her, and is just financial abuse IMHO.
