CSA ignoring request for breakdown & bullying £13,000 from us/well him now

Can anybody help

We paid the ex-partner, for years and kept records, she denied receiving any of it, CSA have calculated we (or rather him now as all the stress has meant that we are no longer together) owed app 13thousand pounds but refuse to share the breakdown on how they have arrived at this cost - we gave them copies of all the accounts TWICE they haven't done anything.

They have sent in bailiffs who are in fact part of there own department but under a different name, four judges have told them to provide a breakdown, we wrote to the CSA Appeal - but heard nothing, we wrote the courts and heard nothing.

The law of the land says people have a right to understand what they are being charged for.

How can the CSA be allowed to ignore us/him and bulldoze there way to securing £13,000 with threats of liability orders/bailiffs ?

Is there anybody else out there with these experiences - this is fundamentally wrong

Would really appreciate any help

contact your MP. It's the only person they seem to listen too

If you are seperated, leave it to your ex to deal with the csa who have made the calculations it is them you should be cross at if your ex has given them his paperwork.

You have your own life now, I would not waste it on and his ex, go and enjoy your own life.

It should have read an ex and his ex.

Hi gillybean2 - many thanks for your mssg, i will do that, although i feel frustrated that we have to go cap in hand to any MP and pursuade them to shout our corner when we have a right to be heard !

Hi Brad...... it is too easy to walk away and turn your back on somebody just because you can or because its not your own problem, we are not together as a result of the pressures of the CSA not because we no longer care for reach other.

Definitely go to the MP - usually an email/phonecall will suffice, my ex was hit with ridiculous charges which meant we didn't have enough money to live off when my DS was newborn, the pressure and stress was a large contributor to our split.

Anyway I digress - he contacted his MP who have send a letter on his behalf and immediately the CSA took notice! It is the only way to communicate with the bozos!

Good luck
