The Ladies v The Child Support Agency

THE LADY DETECTIVE AGENCY.COM
Don't get us wrong, us ladies here at the agency love the child support agency.

A great organisation who bring the non paying parents to justice.

The problem with them comes when you've got a hard work non paying parent who's playing the system.

We had a case recently. The father in this case was the one not paying for the child. He'd not contributed one penny to his school age daughter. The mother had been left to bring up the child on her own with no help. Something we just find unacceptable under any circumstance.

The father said he wasn't working, and he's been self employed for over 15 years.

He said he hadn't worked in 18 months, which was a lie because we'd caught him red handed and taken photographic evidence of that. We'd also given witness statements.

The father still pleeded poverty and he wasn't working.

Just a couple of facts of when a parent goes under investigation, here is what the CSA cannot do:

1. they cannot follow anyone

2. they cannot wait outside anyones house

3. they cannot visit a place where a person is believed to be working

4. they cannot do internet investigations

Pretty much the only thing they can do is look at electoral rolls and utility bills. That's wonderful, but that's far too many loopholes to slip under, and our target was well and truly doing it.

Our target was selling products on the internet, and he'd been photographed working.

The CSA could not do anymore to check this out.

Ok, so we did it all for them at a cost to the mother who's already out of pocket.

We got correspondence from the father admitting his work, internet evidence, photographic evidence, a place of work, witness statements and video evidence.

It wasn't cheap for the mother, imagine if it was a parent who couldn't afford this work?! That's another lying non resident parent escaping paying for their child.

Sad state of affairs when you have to do your own work to get anywhere!
