SIR –The Gestapo lives on in Worcester in the form of the Single Person Discount Review Body.
I was accused of not responding to the review body letter which cost me a first class stamp the day after receiving it, and had to phone an 0845 number (more expense) to arrange for an interrogation, or the discount would be removed.
The threatening examination took place over the phone and the interrogator sounded very disbelieving. I was also not told the result except to say it was recorded. This may have caused the creaking sound over the line. On the other hand, it could have been the shiny black leather coat and peaked hat with skull and crossbones the questioner was wearing. I expect the next move will be an early morning knock on the door for more interrogation, or someone skulking in the bushes at the back with binoculars to see if I am cavorting round my living room with a bunch of nymphs. Beware all you respectable people claiming single person discount. The Gestapo is watching you!
