TV Licensing Starting Again From Scratch 😂

The writers of the TV Licence letters must have zero imagination, they have gone round the clock with the IN0 letters, and I find it funny.

    She also likes the idea of blokes in frocks in women's prisons and would probably support replacing the TV licence with funding the BBC out of general taxation. Re the video, it is sound advice not to declare no licence needed. To do so increases the likelihood of a visit. TV Licensing claim that a proportion of people who do make this declaration actually do need a TV licence. How would they know this without visiting? Another very good reason not to do so is to avoid a vile organisation like Capita recording and linking one's name to one's address on their database.

If l sent this many letters to the licencing agency without actually doing what l said, my actions would be classed as Paper-Terrorism. But yet they conduct Paper-Terrorism on us via the postal service which if I am correct is an offence & abuse of the postal service function.

    I'm afraid not. The BBC is granted exlusion from prosecution with regards to the letters it sends out - in fact the Government oblige the BBC to contact those not licensed. You can test this by taking the letters to the police - they will be interested until they see who sent them. Ask your MP why they explicitly allow the letters to be sent by the BBC.

    It's how Finland did it, they used to have a TV Licence, then it came out of Income Tax at the end of the tax year, you see over there you actually get a full breakdown of how much tax you pay, what your taxes actually pay it's similar to the Council Tax breakdown but much more detailed, and they changed it because most people never paid for the TV licence, and they really didn't enforce it either despite having some of the most far right police and laws in existence. In the end the YLE tax which is the BBC in Finland, was introduced, however it actually ended up more expensive via the tax then the former licence, it's also the same for speeding fines etc, where the more you earn, the more you pay. I know Kimi Raikkonen got caught speeding and was handed a 30,000 euro fine, in the end the police never put it through lol, as that's just insane.

    My uncle passed 18 months ago. This was before I found your channel, and as I thought I had to at the time, I phoned them and informed them of his passing. They they told me that I could claim back the remaining months of his paid fees. Being the third close family member that year to pass, I can honestly say my head wasn't in the game, and I forgot to call them back or go online. I recently got a letter from TVL saying their usual rubbish, about how there's there's no license, etc. Bearing in mind, between him and my grandad, I dont think their house ever did not have a licence since it first was required to have one, including a radio licence! And now obviously, because he's now passed, and the house is in probate, no one's living there, so no licence is needed. But they're saying they're looking to come and check to see if one is needed. But I have no idea how they plan to check to see if he needs a licence? Not unless, of course, they've got an ouija board and plan to ask him and my grandad's ghosts what the latest cricket scores were to catch them out!

Be very careful, they cant' be trusted. And after all would you let just anyone who comes to your door in and march them up to your bedroom. i not sure you would and i would not either.

    Letters in bin. Sign on door, no unsolicited sales callers. In the unlikely event I open a door to a TV goon, it gets quickly shut in their face with a ‘No thanks’.

    There was a famous criminal investigation where a "survey" was sent out with a generic number on it...but a hidden number in "invisible ink" was on every paper. That invisible number was assigned and delivered to a specific address. The prize and chances of winning a prize were so attractive that 99% of the recipients filled in the survey and returned the papers. The papers assigned to the houses of "particular interest" were fingerprinted and DNA'ed on their return to the survey HQ. ... and all particular addresses from which no papers were returned warranted further investigation. In the end a serial killer was located...

    Interesting. When did this happen, and what was the final outcome, as I'm not aware of the case? Thanks.

    I've always said this about TV Licenses, people who WATCH TV broadcasts including the BBC channels should buy a TV license, but if you don't watch the TV channels at all, then why should you be charged for something you do not use or want?

    I watch, but why should I pay? Who am I? The beneficiary. No payment required.

    I declared on their website that I don’t need a licence and TV Licensing acknowledged receipt. I then emailed them stating “I hereby withdraw any implied right of access to my property to you or your agents forthwith.” This was suggested by the Black Belt Barrister. They confirmed that they understood this and would use “other means” to identify whether I require a licence. In two years, I have never received either a letter or a visit.

    A lot of tenants who rent rather than own their property don't realise they basically have the same rights when it comes to door-to-door goons. Just because you rent your place, you are under NO obligation to let these goons in. They can't even demand that your landlord allows them entry. Renters out there: you have a right to privacy and quiet enjoyment of your place. Don't let these goons in!

    BBC we don't need you. Also, most of your better classic shows are on UKTV demand and everything show on ITV, C4 and C5 are on demand within the hour of the show going live. It's amazing how many people still don't know how this works. Keep up the good fight Jon
