Financial harrassment and banks

So. You split up, you have joint bank accounts, joint child benefit, tax credits etc. Its a mess to untangle. Then, your ex turns up at your work threatening you, you lose your job, or you lose clients if you are self employed because of slander. Or he turns language student away at the door because he wants you to default on the mortgage he refuses to pay. This list is endless, depends how creative an abusive ex can be. The latest is lying to tax credits about who the children live with....so I am left with £60 from my meagre job per week to live on with two children to support and a huge mortgage he refuses to pay.

my question: will my bank recognise 'financial harassment'? My direct debits will not be paid, they will charge me, and I not eligible for a loan.

Any advice evry gratefully received X

Have you spoken to your bank about this?

Perhaps you need to consider a non-molestation order to prevent your ex from continuing with his behaviour.
