Not being funny, but, how could you tell from a 'phone call if they are struggling or not? Did they fail if they have a 'plummy voice', or if they threatened to set the hounds on you?
Without further and deeper details how could you tell over the 'phone, if they where genuine about struggling or just putting it on?
Surely, the idea would be that if they had the courtesy to ring you and apologise for any delay they would be given the benefit of the doubt about being genuine until they once again failed to pay up.
To claim that
you, could tell over the 'phone who is and who isn't struggling is a little too clever even for a Tax collector!
