Hi, I've submitted my paperwork for appeal to the CMS after my mandatory reconsideration came back with nothing to change. I sent it all off 2 week ago recorded delivery and was just wondering when I might hear something.

I know the guidanace said the hearing might be some months away but just thought I might have got a letter or something, and also am a bit on edge as wondering when my exH is going to be notified.

Many thanks

You haven’t answered the question. Why do you think that because you are separated from their mother you don’t have to provide for your children?

DaisysStew · 20/01/2018 00:19

You pay no maintenance.

I have paid thousands to both my children since me and my ex split up , you need to get a grip daisy

How, when you only earn £80 a week?

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:21

No I don’t cause the cms decided that, I disagreed with that, was in process of setting up a voluntary ( means I didn’t have to ) amount and ex decided to take me to court 3 days before Christmas , she is going to lose I’m afraid

She’ll have the love and respect of her children, how is that losing?

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:22

Did I mention a timescale if when I earned £80 per week

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:23

Lmao you have no idea daisy , too angry in your own little world,

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:24

If you would like to talk sensibly I am happy to give my full story feel free to contact me

DaisysStew · 20/01/2018 00:24

I actually laughed at that last one. Your NN is actually angryfather. At least the first part of it is correct.

DaisysStew · 20/01/2018 00:25

I have no interest in the story of deadbeat fathers. Because there is no tale tall enough to justify your behaviour.

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:25

I’m sorry , but you are very opinionated and coming from one side I get that and respect that, you don’t know my story , as I don’t know yours , but to come out with such inflammatory comments like you have

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:26

Not as angry as you dear :D

And I’m sorry if that is true

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:28

But don’t transpose your life into mine

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:28

I find you offensive actually

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:29

Degrading to fathers out there, who have a right to enjoy there kids lifes

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:29

I know exactly what type of person you are daisy , with your comments :)

DaisysStew · 20/01/2018 00:31

So you’re all for your rights as an equal parent when it comes to contact - but when it comes to providing that’s all your ex’s responsibility?

What a man! 😍

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:32

My wife denied contact for 4 years to me my parents and my siblings we paid money to interject she moved away

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:33

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:33

Angryfather · 20/01/2018 00:35
