How do you feel about the way the Government has handled this process?:
To date I would have spent 20+ hours of my time compiling information and making phonecalls, this is such a waste of my time. This is a measurable personal loss.
I am confident that this debt is unfounded, I am just so tired of fighting it.
I want those responsible for implementing this system to be held accountable for their poor decision making and the undue loss and hardship encountered by me and many others in the community affected.
