How has it been like since returning to the UK.? Do they actually check if you're quarantining or booking an overpriced test or not?
Numerous friends have popped back to the UK from Spain and I can assure you that they check your locator form pre departure including that you have booked a day 2 and 8 test, they check on arrival in the UK and the tracer people will call you every bloomin day and ask the same questions. If you do not answer, your registered address (on the form) will get a visit. As to fines for non compliance, I'll let you know as a friend returned to Spain within the quarantine period (no PCR required on return bizarrely) and got a visit to his Mum's house in the UK where he isolated and a text message warning that he could get a fine for not completing the day 8 test despite being back home in Spain.
Note to admin: will my posts always have to wait for approval?

I returned from Germany and they check the passenger location form on entry. They also phone you to give advice on how to isolate. Have to say that once you’ve answered the call and listened to the advice they don’t phone again.
CAN you actually be fined for not completing the tests on return???
I know the law says you have to book them and can be fined if you don't book them, didn't think there was anything stopping you binning them.
Especially as the papers we're full of stories of the test firms not sending them on time.
Interested in what type of questions they ask.
In other words, can they be answered on your mobile whilst out and about or by someone else.
