American here, we did that years ago, and went with a antenna and purchased a roku, and get free channels with it, and can rent movies thru it, and can also watch youtube on the tv.
Why should I pay 159 quid to watch Eastenders once a year and the news on a blue moon, I paid last year and I feel I’ve been robed. Now there sending letters through the door saying they could fine me 1000 as I haven’t paid for a few months all because they couldn’t take one direct debit as I had no money in my account in that day. “ couldn’t they just try again on another day like normal services do 🤷🏼”. But I was on the site and ready to renew it. But then thought to myself do I really want to pay that much to here Phil Mitchell’s voice while cooking once in s blue moon? Is it even worth it.?
You can watch EastEnders or almost 90% of any thing on catch-up or CZcams now TV etc without watching live TV. So get rid of the licence most fines are £200-300 and you only get that if you go to court so shut the door don't let them in don't answer any questions just say no thanks shut the door after a while they will leave you alone. TV detector vans are empty have no detection capabilities never have. Don't have you TV visible from your front door mute it when answering the door. Close curtains when watching stops accidental snooping 😊
I don't blame you Peter, I watch very few programmes and they are recorded, I absolutely refuse to watch the trash that they dish up now, which includes the constant repeats. Whatever happened to decent tv ?
Sounds good in theory but they have just prosecuted 2 local women in my area fof nof having a tv licence. And printed their names in the local newspaper.
@@annsandell890 lucky for me I have not watched TV for years. When I moved into this house 2 years ago the previous owner cut the cable to the TV aerial and the sky dish and I never reconnected them lol I stopped watching TV when I got my driving licence and ham radio licence.
@@oldgrouch1835most countries Inc UK have a TV licence to watch or record live TV, that's programs that are advertised to broadcast at certain times BBC and ITV also covers BBC own iPlayer. £159 at the moment for the privilege. We can opt out if we don't watch or capable of watching and only use TV etc with streaming services. The BBC take £3.5 billion approx and have around 30,000 employees and are the governments propaganda station 😊

One factoid that i learned that kinda correlates with this is that right until the mid 70s there wasn't such a thing as "commercial" radio in the UK because it wasn't allowed. The only ways to get an alternative to the BBC radio services was either through pirate radio ships like Radio Caroline or through Radio Luxembourg. This boggles my mind simply because it's ridiculous how much power the BBC was allowed to have over the years.
And the 'inspectors' have NO right of entry so just ignore them ...
I've never paid TV license in my entire life
congratulations :)
3 years since I defunded the Britain Bashing Cabal and kiddie fidderlers club.
Shhh
I gave up TV about a decade ago and licensing have been hounding me ever since lol
thanks for sharing
I cancelled my TV Licence months ago because I don't really watch TV now. Well done
20years now no tv licence
I watch anything I want and don’t have a licence.
Stopped paying it years ago.
I stopped paying TV license in 2008!
I cancelled my TV Licence Direct Debit in 2012 just after the London Olympics. I get the occasional easy to ignore letter and no visits. 📺
Congrats upon realising that "it's all propagandist shite"
Tell them to do 1!
TV licence? Never had one and never will.😂
Well done sir
The BBC shouldn't get to gatekeep all "live TV", there are plenty of stations that have their own infrastructure.
I defunded the beeb because of their biased behaviour towards the Reform Party 🇬🇧 disgraceful
Dare to think outside the box!
indeed

they cant prosecute if you dont break the law - we are not suggesting you break the law
A nonce organisation!
Only watch Netflix, CZcams and Prime Video, but don’t watch any Live TV on Prime Video and YT.
There is no licence needed for radio anymore apparently
Tidal the green Cup is here
Good for you mate 👏👏👏
Haven't had a license for so many years now.And still these bastards hound me and send me letters.
Pull the cable from your satellite dish and tv aerial outside. Then they will see it’s not connected, so you aren’t watching!
It's none of their business if you do have a cable connected and it's also irrelevant.
What the HELL is a TV license??? I've NEVER heard of it. It must be a UK thing. We don't have that in the US
