Hi there just found this web site today!!!

Wondered if anyone else has come across this same situation.
I became subject to a DRO on 13th Aug this year. I included in this order an overpayment for Tax credit awarded a couple of years ago. As they have continued to make reduced payments to me i called them the other day and was infomed that because i have an on going award with them they can continue to make reduced payment to me to recover the balance, however if i was not claiming Tax Credits they would not persue me for the debt! I called to insolvency service to get clafification on this and they informed me that HM Revenue and Customs are treating these debts as they would be treat in bankruptcy and not as a DRO as the wording in the legislation is different therefore they should not continue the take the overpayment from my award. However the insolvency service say they cannot do anything about this my only option would be to persue this matter myself through the courts.

I feel at a loss really wondered if anyone out ther has had the same trouble??

Thankyou
