I had to threaten TV Licensing with court proceedings when they harassed my Lovely Cousin's grandmother after she temporarily moved in with her daughter and son in law to convalesce after illness.
She transferred her licence to her temporary residence when she moved, meaning the (empty) property she owned did not have a licence.
The letters she received were nasty, and of a very threatening and scary nature, especially to a sweet old widow of advancing years.
The community charge was NOT a poll tax.
