Tell us about your debt and how has this affected you? e.g. anxiety levels, financial and accommodation stress: 

Increased anxiety as a single parent caring for two small children on my own. I have debts from my marriage that I am wearing on my own that aren't all mine but ex refuses to pay. Receive very little in child support. I fear that the bank will foreclose my house.

How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?: 

This has been ridiculous. Going back Years and how to prove this they have made it extremely difficult to prove for people and I feel most will give in and pay because the alternative to fight is horrendous
