      You`re wrong. It is the business of the BBC if you watch live TV in the UK on any channel, or watch BBCiPlayer.
      This is the law whether you like it or not.
      If you don`t watch live TV or BBCiPlayer then it is none of the BBC`s business what you watch.
      That `they will never know" ( in fact or theory ) is a poor excuse for a potential breaking of Criminal Law.
      I don`t have a TV Licence and haven`t had one in 15 years, but only on the grounds that I don`t watch BBCiPlayer or live television.
      If I did watch live TV or the BBC and / or BBCiPlayer then I would be in possession of a current license - in compliance with the law.

    I stopped paying it 2 years ago thanks to this channel. I still get a letter every month informing me I will get a visit. No-one ever calls round. In the two years I've not paid that's £320 they haven't had off me and the cost of the 20 odd letters they've sent me must be another £50. At this rate and by 2033 (if I'm still alive) I've worked out the BBC will have spent another £320 in postage trying to get me buying the licence again.
    I used to be a BBC fan. I watched everything they put out. Then, around the turn of the Century they lost their way and began preaching to the public and producing crap programmes. Around the same time, the rise of the internet changed the way we live and operate. EG: Don't waste an hour watching Question Time. If you miss two good minutes, that clip will be on You Tube on Friday morning. Did you miss a controversial red card on MOTD? Don't worry, it'll be on YT Sunday morning. This applies to nearly everything on TV. Why waste hours watching absolute crap when the few juicy bits are on YT within 24 hours?

    Long time lurker, first comment today.
    I am on the outside looking in, since I live in the US.
    All TV here are based on the subscription model, regardless if you consume TV through a traditional cable/satellite TV provider or through streaming services (Netflix, Fubo TV just off the top of my head).
    Sure we complain about the amount of ads on TV, but at least we do not have to pay a TV licence fee. Everything is supported by ads.
    I am not sure why the BBC is adamant on not going commercial? It has worked for the rest of the world and it WILL work for the BBC.
    Again, I would like to reiterate, I am on the outside looking in, as I live in the US.

    Not had a TV for nearly 8 years now. Best thing ever was the day that Mind Numbing device was sold on. Maybe really i should of smashed the screen and thrown it in the recycling bin. As i have been party to the cycle of assisting the numbing and dumbing of a persons mind.

    Mr JonCarne. Just a suggestion, but why not have an intro or outro to each video that summarises the rules. Just a 5 or ten second snap that will go viral and people will remember and share. Love and kisses from an ex-TV licence holder who definitely doesn't hold a TV licence any more and never will again x

    Ah yes, Martin Lewis.

    I would like him to take a look at the debt recovery business. Specifically how these parasite companies break the law and use threats to achieve their aims.
    Given his success with PPI, I thought this topic would give him something to do in his copious free time.
    Oddly I have yet to hear anything from the great man or his minions.
    A cynic might think it's somehow going against his interests to question these parasites and their methods...

They way they've worded the last 2 questions differently to the first 4 is done on purpose to try and confuse people. Q5 is "Can you confirm that you and your household never watch BBC iPlayer*?" Q6 is "Can you confirm that you and your household never record TV? For example, on: Sky, Virgin, BT, Freeview".
