I couldn’t agree with you more except for one ever so tiny detail. But you wouldn’t be expected to know that, living abroad as you are.

We can’t pay for the TV license at the Post Office any more. We can pay at any shop displaying the Pay Point sign and we get charged £0.50 for the privilege. There’s always DD of course but I don’t like people helping themselves to the money in my bank account.
