CMS are shit. How do I prove my children are at home 5 nights?

[Mumof3almost4]

Ex has said he has shared care of kids, he claims he has them 3 nights. He does not he has them 1/2. This has drastically reduced maintenance.
I appealed and they said I have not proved that they are at home so many nights. How the fucking he'll do I prove they stay at home at least 5 nights? Send pics of them in their beds?!
I have to appeal at tribunal, please advise what you'd do??

I'd tell him he needs to withdraw his false claim or you will prove he's lying and ask that he be sanctioned for doing so in court, because that's where this will end up.

Does Breakfast tv or a news channel show the date and time? Could you video them in front of breakfast tv and news at night then email it to yourself immediately? This would show that the tv was live as the email would also show the date and time sent (rather than it being done in front of catch up).

Thanks for all of your replies. I have sent him a screenshot of what he owes me, he then blocked me. I do feel vindicated and quite smug I just need to claw back this money he owes now. What an unnecessary pain this has been

How can you claw the money back? You can ask the CMS to get it taken from his wages at source: (I believe there is a percentage charge on this though.)
