Advise on Consent Orders

When I divorced my ex back in Oct 2002, I agreed to a consent order which stated that monthly payments should be made for the benefit of our 2 daughters until the age of 18 or when they finished full time education. I have recently asked if I can have an increase because 8 years on, I am finding it difficult to manage. He has refused. I contacted the CSA and they have advised that because the consent order was issued before March 2003 they cannot get involved. Have I been extremely stupid in agreeing to this back in 2002, is there nothing I can do?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For a court order that old you have to go back to the courts to get it changed, I'm afraid. Talk to a solicitor.
