[Margaret Pilkington]

When my mum died I let all the agencies know that she was no longer with us...including the TVL.
The house was not sold for almost a year.
After six months I had a very intimidatory letter telling me that I could expect a visit from someone to check that the house was unoccupied and no TV services were being used.
It upset me, because I felt that I had done everything to prevent letters like this.

I rang them up and got a very snotty woman who told me that these things were computer generated ....like that made a difference.
I told her that the investigator was welcome to come and check that the house was empty....but asked for 24 hrs notice so that I could let them in....I also suggested that they bring Wellington boots as they would be required to walk through a lot of mud (and dog dirt) to get to the house.

Thankfully, I heard nothing more from them.
