Being robbed blind by CMS and I don’t know how to stop it.

Don’t even know how to go on about this. Basically my son turned 18 in January has moved in with his girlfriend last year. Child maintenance services keep fobbing me off about child benefit. I’ve already reported his mother multiple times for benefit fraud and I feel like I’m just getting laughed at by the government at this point. I’ve already been robbed of over 30grand due to her lying on her application (son was living with me full time and hasn’t lived with his mum since she made the claim) and had accepted it til he was 18 not much I could do about it.

Waiting 16 weeks at a time just to be told she’s gonna still keep getting the benefit is really getting to me now. Is there any other avenues I can go down now as this is an absolute joke now. This system is a joke I had social workers, teachers and his doctor all to verify that he lived with me full time when this all began and just get told chil benefit is all that matters. Seems like this system is designed to shaft people.
