Mortgage and Child Maintenance

This could do with stickying Unknown. Could you start a new thread with that info and I'll sticky it.
 
Just an update on this...I have told her I'm stopping the mortgage payments....cue threats of my credit score, getting a mortgage in the future, etc. As if I don't know that?

Anyway, yet another derisory, well disrespectful too, offer.. basically a return to the first. Not really negotiation is it!

So will file Form A on Monday. Sent their solicitor into a flap when I told them.

But after 9 months, I'm not prepared to wait for a fourth offer that's likely to be poor and for more slanderous and condescending nonsense!

I still don't understand how a 70/30 split of a joint asset, with similar wages and her in receipt of all the benefit, CMS, etc is at all fair...
 
Hi jw3593,

I am in the same situation as you. I think the fact you have given written notice is a good thing.

I am going to do exatly the same thing and give notice that I will be stopping the mortgage payments in 3 months time.
I can't afford to live and need to get my life started again too. At the moment these stbx's are living in luxury in the houses that we are paying for.
It is not at all right.
 
It's why they slandered you in the first place. The plan is to get you out of the house and to drag things out for as long as possible thereafter.

I always recommend that as soon as they have had you removed from the family home then don't waste any time. Get form A filed immediately.
 
Well, she hasnt said anything to me after that letter. But she's only put half the mortgage into the joint account 😂

Now for a game of chicken...
 
It is a game of chicken but she's playing a game to stay in the house for a very long time and sponge off you. Whereas your downside is a bad credit score for 6 years. Different stakes, she has much more to lose
 
I just cannot believe the arrogance to expect to treat me like s***...offer me a derisory settlement and still claim that I am abusing her financially!

Form A filed with the court the other day, though. Hoping that puts frighteners up her...
 
Filing probably won't scare her. You'll have to wait for the FDR for reality to hit her like a speeding train. You also need to accept it will be a bumpy ride. Interim decisions might go against you. Don't allow one battle lost to make you stop fighting the war though.

Women have taken recent changes to the law on financial abuse and completely and utterly misunderstood them too (aided and abetted by charities like Women's Aid and SEA who ought to know better). Financial abuse is where someone deliberately withholds funds to control someone. It does not happen when someone refuses to subsidise someone else who refuses to work and it definintely doesn't arise where someone has enough to live on but wants money for their hair and nails.
