Sorry for the long post! But has anyone ever been in my situation? Has anyone ever found a resolution to something similar?
I had a child with my ex partner and he practically abandoned our child when he was 6 months old, when we broke up. He now has 5 kids with 5 different women and hasn't payed or seen any of them. He's a deadbeat basically.
3 of his exs, including me, have a child maintenance case with him for him to pay for his kids. Standard right?
However he has totally refused to pay anything for over 6 years for any of them. He was only told to pay £2 a week for each child which is disgusting, I know and still refuses to pay.
This is because he works illegally, cash in hand, to avoid paying more for his kids.
Child maintenance told me they were taking enforcement action against him for mispayent and got permission from court to take further action. A year later, nothings been done since court. Still no money, arrears not payed. Still no effort from child maintenance to help.
I've updated them constantly with his new addresses and details. I've sent them evidence of him running his own business which is publicly on Google and social media but still nothing.
I'm past caring about the money. I've done just fine without his help. It's the principal.
How has he got away with it?
