Tell us about your debt and how has this affected you? e.g. anxiety levels, financial and accommodation stress:
We were overpaid FTB due to an ERROR / mistake by Centrelink and received a letter from Probe.
We didn't know we were not entitled to the payments as apparently the rules had been changed by the government but somehow someone didn't make the changes to stop us from receiving the fortnightly payment?
How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?:
Totally shameful.
