Just curious really- I have a friend staying at my place. She arrived from an amber list country to live in the UK so has been with us for 2 months now.
First time she was quarantining (back in June) she has received a few calls to check she was home etc. All good. Then one day the quarantine officer had come to physically check- she wasn't in, I had taken her to have her day 5 test to release in a local clinic. Officer asked for proof that she was living with us, my partner (who was the only person home at the time) showed him the passport. He then told my partner to tell my friend that if anyone asks, she is to tell them that she had seen the officer at 5:30pm (when he visited). Nothing else happened.
We are on holiday now in an amber list country. She joined for the first week, and is now back at our place doing her 10 day quarantine (not fully vaccinated). A quarantine officer has visited 3 times since she's been home! She's only on day 4 of being home!
Is this the norm or was she maybe flagged due to not being in the first time? Even if the quarantine officer basically told her to lie? We also live in the middle of nowhere so not really easy to get to 
We get back tomorrow and not fully vaccinated either so we may be meeting some of these officers
