Hi, I wonder if someone would be able to give me some advice pls.
I pay my ex child support each month via CSA. I also give her extra money each month in addition to the mandatory amount I am required to by law.
I have recently found out she has been spending money on Botox/filler beauty injections !!, even though she does not work and is pleading poverty !!!
I don't want to stop the extra money each month but I do want to ensure it is being spent on my child. I have been told I can buy vouchers and they can only be used for certain purchases i.e. things for my child.
Does anybody have advise on where I can buy the vouchers pls?
Many thanks in advance Andy
I haven't heard of these, so hopefully someone else will know.
However, if you get the vouchers, does this mean that it will free up some of the maintenance money for her to spend on other stuff?
It might be better if, instead of getting vouchers, you buy the actual things she needs - though of course, there's no guarantee they won't end up on ebay if you do this, or if you buy vouchers.
The only vouchers I know of are the child care vouchers, they would be spend obviously on nursery fees not on clothes etc for the child
