I have been disputing an overpayment of tax credits that occurred whist I was living with my ex partner. We were overpaid £5,610 due to a computer mistake recording that I was working 37 hours a week and that I was unemployed and receiving benefits. I have disputed this, appealed and complained to no avail. The debt is on hold with the ''Hardship department'' and has been since September. I have been told that they have not made a mistake even though I have recorded calls that they sent me detailing the times, dates, person I spoke to recording all the information that I had given was correct. Still they say they have not made a mistake, every letter I send is not received even though I have recorded delivery receipts and scans of signatures of the people receiving the letters. I have now written to my MP as this has been ongoing for 2 and a half years and they have told him they have no record of any complaints made by me. Help what now?
