But I did sign. I was taken by surprise. Not only had I recently written to the TV Licence people under the advice of my debt advisor, I was making a cup of tea and sorting the washing and getting my son's pudding! So, being caught off guard, I signed. So what now?

Wow! A lot of information here. And it seems, at times, it goes round and round in circles Anyway, I have had a visit from an enforcement officer. I will hold my hands up. I don't have a tv licence. I did a few months back, but fell behind with the payments. When I tried to get on my feet again, they wanted nearly £100 a months....for the arrears and advance. I tried to pay, and I failed. I have recently joined a debt management thing, an dthe subject of the TV licence came up. So when the officer came, I explained I was in the process of arranging it. But I still had to sign a declaration, and he set me up with payment there and then. Will I have to go to court though? I am worried, I don't want to go to court. I am begrudgingly willing to pay. But they don't make it easy for you!
