Neither my experience nor my husband's (when we lived separately before we were married). We got endless threatening letters, to all of which we replied explaining that we didn't have a TV. Finally I wrote and said that that was the last time I would reply to one of their nasty letters, the rest would be binned. I binned everything else they sent me. But no enforcement officer turned up - at least, not when I was in. Admittedly, this was a while ago.
