Here's another statistic for you... every 15 seconds one of their goons gets a door closed on them 😂
I don't even answer the door.
5 years licence free, feels great
me too!
Three years licence free for me. Still loving every moment.
Yeah, and not watching TV does wonders for your mental health. No more propaganda fed to you through a box 24/7.
About probably 15 years for me!
Thanks for all that you do Jon, breaking down the "gobbledegook" for us. As a side note my elderly neighbour, is 73 and in poor health, as a consequence of our chatting it turned out he was very worried. I took the liberty Jon of showing him one of your excellent videos, next day he told me he slept well for the first time in a month, having been reassured by your information. Thanks again from both of us.
I declared a no TV licence needed online but i still had a goon knock on my door. I just told him to go away and shut the door.
Never give out information that you don't need to. The BBC have no legal right to know who you are or where you live.
Spot on.
Yeah just say no thanks shut door and job done. Costs em money so it’s all gravy as far as I’m concerned wouldn’t tell em the colour of the door right in front of them as it would already be shut and locked…….
Way to go !
How could you be so heartless? ;)
It's literally bullying and harassment. I might have considered buying a licence and getting a TV had they not sent me those awful letters
You forgot theatening!, which im sure many older people would consider it!.
Whoever lived at that address they visited every 10 seconds must have got a bit p****d off.
Anyway, got that same letter myself a couple of weeks ago. It went straight in my green bin.
Feel the same about voting register - sent nasty letter - I was born English - I know I do not have to register for this crap either! Banker picks Gov - not public, 2022 - came out of his Mile to force Liz out for Rishi to be installed!!!
Banker Rules here - we never were a democrasy.
@@colinellison762 which is why they do it. They have expensive reliefs and “Artworks” by convicted people of the worst kind to upkeep you know the BBC.
Bullying & harrasment while hiding behind a bunch of legalism that protects them to some degree I would say too!
Fantastic to see how the BBC are fully utilising the money they receive via thousands of door-to-door sales people. Absolutely brilliant work!
They ain't no Sherlock Holmes when it comes to investigating since they don't even know your name.
Normal subscriber services actually use marketing, like "First six months free!" or "Refer a friend and get 10% off!"
BBC sends threatening letters. Pure effin' genius.
Why hasn't someone taken the bbc to court over the scary harassment letters.they shouldn't be allowed to send out intimidating letters like this.
Because to have any chance in a court hearing, you need expensive lawyers outta the arse to argue your case for you. Else you will just be steamrollered by the legal process.
It would take a rich person wanting to make a point to proceed with it. And a rich person is going to have a TVL.
Go to blackbelt barrister. He might take them to court. Just guessing.
@@tonyandjanetparker3204 he may be bat for your side, he's hired-gun/mercenary-for-hire? if there splashing more cash than you?
.... because the BBC have an exception from Government granted by your local mp.... ask them why they explicitly allow the bbc to behave as they do....
@@dh2032 You need to write that with correct spelling and punctuation. That way you might make more sense.
Had 3 visits in 6 weeks from 3 different goons not been in for 2 of them and they have left a snotty threatening letter in my post box. I live in a bungalow and wonder if they think i am elderly and can bully me into buying a licence I do not need.
I am elderly but they don't scare me!
Had a visitor from the "investigating officer" as I was leaving the house this morning to go to work. Told him "no thanks" Followed me for 2 mins and said "follow me any further I would have him arrested" Turned about and drove away. He has been in trouble with the police previously for something similar.
That sort of harassment would justify more physical action, in my opinion.
*YEAH!!!!! I'VE JUST HAD THE VERY SAME LETTER*
Mines in the bin 👍👍👍👍
Please recycle 😂🙏
hahaha and me, I can remember when a letter from TV Licensing came in a brown envelope which actually had TV Licensing on the envelope. Now it just arrives in a white envelope and no indication who it is from , However the giveaway is how it is addressed "To the Legal Occupier"
@@robertcapewell6465
They sent it in my name, till a goon got the door closed with a ...no thank you.
Then the letters started coming to Legal Occupier.
🤷

Bit of a waste use it for toilet paper or to get the fire going with
Imagine how much it costs to send these out. How many people are paying for these letters out of their TV licenses?
about 13 million quid a year.
lots- mugs.
The black whole of their shortfall.
A lot lot lot less than Gary Lineker!!!!
But a freedom of information request will tell you that they can't tell you that. I think more about the environmental aspect of all that paper they are using up. At least they're helping keeping the posties in jobs
I have a letter dated 18 April which lists "what I need to know about the enforcement process:
- We can apply to court for a search warrant to gain access to your property.
- An officer (???) may interview you under caution in accordance with national criminal law.
- Anything you say to the Officer (???) may be used as evidence in court.
- You risk a fine of up to £1000 plus any legal costs . . .
- If your property needs a TV licence, you will need to buy one."
That last point should have been first!! Still not replying, still filing the letters, still not watching live tv or BBC. I have been tv tax free for two decades now.
They ARE barstewards.
They need the money to put In to Swift and COMPANIES HOUSE and HMRC and GOVERNMENT who ( allegedly) trafficked over 100,000 uk kids , gary youtube....gary waterman has all the evidence , no one is listening just like when Gordon Bowden tried to expose it all
Whoever lived at that address they visited every 10 seconds must have got a bit p****d off.
Anyway, got that same letter myself a couple of weeks ago. It went straight in my green bin.
They can get a search warrant if you had previously spoken to them or had previously let them in your Home but only if you incriminate yourself. They can't do it on a hunch and they can't kick your Door in either. LLSS
They are not Officers, just sounds like Police. Other Companies have Officers. Some Public Toilets have an Officer.
Only police can read you your rights otherwise it is meaningless. P
Threats are meant to intimidate you, cause fear so you cough up with out getting in to any trouble. The whole thing is based around that.
I haven't paid their tax for over 20 Years either and not 1 knock.
If you live in a city. They Will come round on the off chance .and a lot more often.
Cities are now going to be killing zones in every sense . None of these bastards give one good goddamn about anything but their commission on a sale…….
Send them a legal letter warning them to stop sending you letters. Hit them back with the letters, you're not breaking the law with anything to do with not having a licence
I advised that "I do not need a license" a number of times and even did it online a good while ago and as a result they stepped up on the door knocks and threats. Harassment, extortion under threat of court order.
Abusive people become tv licence employees.
If you answer the door to them say "You are harassing me, you are intimidating me without cause or reason; come back and i will sue you personally for abuse." The look on their face and the stumbling words as you slam the door in their face is worth it!
I did declare I didn’t need one and no refund was issued (9 months left on licence)I had a visit from 2 people a male and female ENFORCEMENT OFFICER……ha ha ha. I have adhd and have been terrified by these people. I just said no thank you and closed the door. Thank you Jon.
Jon,I informed BBC Licensing 4 years ago I didn't need a licence. They emailed me back a few days later to confirm this.
Then the letters started ending up with the big red envelope one. Had a vist after the covid suspension.
I then contacted my MP and said I had been intimidated on my door step by demanding money with menaces. She agreed, she wrote to BBC and I haven't heard anything since.
I was selling a fridge freezer to a bloke that took my number in the pub. I haven't heard anything since.
I've had five letters for this apartment and I only moved in two weeks ago. The first two letters were dated before the apartment was even completed in February and ready for occupation. They're getting desperate. Glad I have a shredder.
Keep up the good work Jon👊 This scandalous racket MUST be called out and stopped!!!!!
Yes keep doing the letters jon. I was reassured myself thanks to your channel. Let's get more doors closed on them.
They cancelled my licence and I STILL get communications from them. You can’t make this stuff up.
Remember: the default is you don't need a TV licence. You opt in, not out. The same as a firearm's licence.
... or a fishing licence, a driving licence, a pilot's licence, a canal boating licence, a water abstraction licence, an agricultural analysis licence, a bookmaker's licence, a cockling licence,
... or a fishing licence, a driving licence, a pilot's licence, a canal boating licence, a licence to dive at protected wrecks in Wales, a cockling licence, a bookmaker's licence, a scrap metal dealer's licence, a fireworks manufacturing and storage licence, an abstraction of water licence, a dangerous wild animals licence ...
Of all the dozens and dozens of licences which I might require for any one or more of a great many leisure or commercial activities in one or all nations of the UK, there is only one licenci g body which - with absolutely no evidence AT ALL - makes the assumption that I _must_ need said licence and proceeds to harangue me _continually_ and repeatedly over a period of years, about the penalties I face for my omission to own such a license _when I do not need said licence_ .
I watch what I like, not paid for years.
Im starting my third year of no tv licence, ive had one visit in that time. Never opened the door and they toodled off. I get one letter a month which i send straight back to them, return to sender. It works . Keep up the great work. 🏆
Tvl have an agreement withe the post office and your letters won't have been returned... you are better off to forward to your mp asking why they permit harassment...
Reason.. they go "scary" on these letters is they know they cant enforce it as they cant see what you are watching unless you tell them or let them in. So if the letter wrote you cant watch live tv LEGALLY without a licence, please buy one, people will know they can do it anyway. They cant detect you watching live TV, so their hands are tied and like the Police in the US Not able to "demand" ID without arrest, they push you into giving it against the law threatening with arrest if you dont give ID. In court defendant always winds a lawsuit. UK cant do anything with this licence mess now but send out letters and doorstops to get you to admit you are watching live tv without the licence. shut the door and theres nothing they can do by the law...
The way I understand it is, if you legally cancel your licence, they keep sending you letters and a threat of a visit, even though you have cancelled "legally" . Also, if you fill out the cancellation forms or cancel by phone, they will have a name to go with your address.
I'll just continue to ignore them and not give them my money and simply not go through the pointlessness of filling out a form.
Thanks for your work and information, John
I just declare every 2 years under a fake name. It doesn't really matter whether they have my name or not, they know my address is not licensed. I know I don't have to, but that's my choice and it stops the letters and I have never had a visit in 6 years.
Thanks, I might do that then. I only get a letter on average about once a month. But from what I've heard from others is that even after cancellation they still receive letters.
@@cshartley101
It just seems to vary and there are different outcomes for people doing the same thing. When I cancelled, they did say I might get a visit, the usual nonsense threats, but that's an email rather than a letter. I really hate those letters, that's why I chose the online declaration every 2 years.
ive done a no licence needed on line for years and you dont have to put a name to it
No one needs a TV license.
as a protest , how could we gather all the letters and then leave them out side the jimmy savil bbc door step
Keep the letters and then send them back with no postage.
I stopped paying them after I realised they knew about savil
I dont care, they can threaten as much as they want, there is nothing on TV that i could be interested in thats worth a fraction of what they are charging!.
Keep up the good & accurate work 👏 haha the BBC can go and whistle for funding! You are doing a great job of informing people in your videos.
Good man.
I've been licence-free for over two and a half years, received countless letters from them, but no visits. I have signed the no licence needed declaration twice (without including my real name). I don't watch or record anything that's being broadcast nor use BBC iPlayer and have saved over £300.
My house is a blackhole, anything that goes in, such as these letters never come out, no reaction, nothing. Nothing easier than doing nothing. Why on earth would you declare you don't do something...
I declared no license needed 2 years ago and last year as well. I will keep on doing it every year whether needing to or not. Haven't had any letters or visits. If they do happen to visit I will get my solicitor friend to send them a letter.
you don't need a license to watch live TV and bbc iplayer full stop. Been watching live TV and bbc iplayer for 2 years and nothing, no letters , no visits, nothing. It's a complete scam.
You only pay it if you want to.
seen them all john , my latest one is, we have been authorised to visit your home ,still havent come round .but i have nothing to hide , have been lissence free for the 11th year , i dont watch any broadcast tv , its all shit ,
i love how they just ASSUME you need a tv licence its pathetic my 69 year old mom received one yesterday she is ok with tech i just been going over how she can watch her soaps without tv licence even eastenders dont know why eastenders episodesmare normally on youtube few hours after broadcast so u can watch without licence point is i been showing my mom she can watch everything she loves on catch up not i player without tv licence and she had a goon last week come to door i was there and she just told him to bog off and shut door i was proud i just hate how they assume ur guilty its so wrong keep them coming jon
I had a goon from tv licensing put a letter through my door with info hand written in the boxes on the back. On the front it says in red " do not ignore this".
I wasn't in the property at the time but it says they will be back in 7 days. If I was in the property I would have told them get to f**k off my private property. I don't have a tv at the property and don't have the Internet there either and don't live at the property. Anyway, why should anyone have to pay a licence to watch independent tv stations and the money is given to the BBC!!!
I just ignore the B'stards.
Great channel.
I live with my autistic son so I did the no licence needed declaration as he would get upset from the letters arriving. We haven't watched live TV for over 4 years. I so far have had no visits. But my son is prepared now if one calls. Firstly he won't answer the door and if he does he will be polite and and say no thanks and close the door....
Had this one again last week, 3 rd time since i moved in February last year. As usual it went to line my cats litter tray
Had a visit last week told him to go away 😢
Pretty sure I've got the full set several times over now after 12 years of not paying for something I don't need....any other company would have been warned about harassment by now by the courts....
This needs to be stopped... especially as elderly people are likely to be extremely unsettled by these bullying letters...
I'm getting one a month. Thanks for info as I don't open them.
It will stop for 6 months tns then re start
I just recently had the "It's time to update your status" letter from them and just went to the /notv section of their website and answered the multiple choices and no licence required again!
I might have mentioned this somewhere else and Jon you might want to mention this to your viewers, the multiple choice questions, just make sure you read them as the 1st two you'd tick no to, but the final two questions you might want just read them I nearly just carried on ticking no, but they're trap questions so it can come back with you need a license, no way Hosè!
I've no need for endless repeats of Bargain Hunt thanks.
I can also get my local news from itvX, after broadcast can sometimes be uploaded late but at least I don't need Auntie for that! This includes the local weekend bulletins too!
Never had a visit in around 15 years and would have to get past my intercom an' all! 🤭
I noticed that my love letters from the BBC are more frequent too!
I wrote to them and removed their implied right of access so they aren't allowed to come round my house. I don't have a TV in my house. I really hope they try and get a warrant so I can take them to court for harassment.
Got the same letter last week and put it back in the post with "Return to sender "
Back in the 1980's a case went to court in Glasgow for using a TV without a licence. The guy had found out that the governmt did not allow TV detector vans to operate in Northern Irteland. He screamed discrimination. The judge agreed and as a result all the detector vans were scrapped.
I cancelled my mothers licence when she went into a care home 8 years ago , I filled in the online form and still got these letters . Since she passed away a year ago , I am getting them every two weeks , absolutely fed up with them .
I get letters all the time, nobody comes, I tend not to answer the door generally anyway, but when they threaten I wait and nothing. I don't watch any BBC I don't even watch live motor sports on CZcams, so I am not breaking any laws, but they are idle threats, nothing ever happens on the days they say they are coming.
They haven't tried it on here, the past few months. Last bloke i got filmed swearing when he saw the CCTV fitted out my first floor window. I actually pity them, the Traffic Wardens have more respect around here.
With the list of categories for needing a TV licence such as CZcams Netflix including commercial broadcasting companies that you can watch on a smart phone or PC, they still say you require a TV licence, such ambiguity should be illegal as it's nothing to do with the BBC, you are right, they will continue to strike fear into the public with the backing of the government through the back door avenue to pay up even when you don't need a licence, totally disgraceful.
Four years me no licence I just regard their activities as purely childish. If people want to cancel they should do it, you've more to fear from the Bogey man under the bed.
Don't you risk getting jailtime and a criminal record ?
@@VictorLaszlo-iz3il They'd like you to think so but if you do as Chilli says and have no contact with them there's no risk. I've had goon visits their so called " enforcement officers" and they send me a meaningless threat letter every month which goes straight in the bin and where has it got them. Nowhere.
Hi ChilliJohn, was speaking to someone the other day and they absolutley tried to shoot me down in flames stating that you require a TV license just to own a TV set AND to cover the radio they have in their car,They were not having any of it,Is it any wonder the BBC are pocketing a fortune when ill advised people have this kind of mindset
4 years licence free.. Just don't open the door, letters go in the bin.. If I do get caught out and open the door just say no thankyou shut the door...
Exactly, no need to be overly aggressive or rude, a simple no thank you or I am not interested then shutting the door is all that's needed.
I had filled in the "No T.V. license needed" form online 3 times over the last 6 years. This time i did not bother. I got 3 letters over about 3 months, then one unanswered visit from one of the boys. I have many cameras.Waited till i got another letter then filed in the "No T.V. needed" form online. Only this time i did not fill in my name. I do not watch TV in any way shape or form, it's something i lost interest in years ago. I still have a SKY dish just above my front door, my SKY subscription expired a good 20 years ago. As i give zero thought to TV I'm less likely to fill in any form next time.
I see Freely the latest tv service was launched yesterday which is backed by the bbc,ITV, ch4 and ch5. What really annoys me is in the press it's being described as a free service which is complete fabrication as you still need a licence to watch it.
I am so lucky, I’ve filled in the online form for no licence needed, three times and I’ve never been bothered by a visit, threatening letter or letter about no licence registered at my address.
I have not had a TV Licence for about 8years , at first they came round and came round and came round i then pointed out that there is no evidence that i do need a TV license and if this visiting continues without solid evidence that I have watched a live broadcast or any BBC iplayer program ( which won't happen) then I will report them to the police for illegal harassment . They stopped .....
we should have all woke up by now , having been through the fear and scaring by MSM including BBC and Government about the virus
which was fake
Just bought a house so told them I didn’t need a license and within 2 months had a letter stating that I had been “detected” watching live tv - despite house being unoccupied & uninhabitable during renovations
Hi. Just thought I would add my two penn'orth. I have just received my free TV licence and a refund . I have also had a reminder that I haven't paid my tv licence.
24 years no licence, lived in two places, latest since 2013, lot of letters, no visit. But then i live in east london so they surely can't recruit anyone who would dare. Tip... make sure you don't use iplayer either, and make sure you do open letters from the state about voting etc to make sure you tick boxes for keeping your name off the visible electoral roll, so they can't address you by name
We bought a property 25 years ago, where we have never used a TV or watched i-player. We notified them that we didn't require a TV license from the outset but 2 years later they started sending the letters that ramp up the threats to a peak and then subdue back to the original letter to start the whole process off again. Since then and therefore for the past 23 years, all their (black and red) letters go in the bin. We have never seen a hint of any TV Licensing investigation officers in all that time and had they carried out due diligence they could have known that the property is unoccupied.
As the BBC have franchised out the collection of moneys to Capita aka TV Licensing, it is in Capita's interest to maintain the flow of letters to justify their fee, whereas I suspect the BBC would have long since realised the futility of attempting to pursue us and given up.
The stupidity in all this is that the TV License fee seems to most that it only applies to TV, whereas it supports that vast array of local, national and international radio services that we should be rightly proud of. In many countries the BBC World Service for example, is well respected and for many it is the only reliable independent service available, particularly for unbiased news. We pay the license fee on our main home as much for the support of the radio services that most of us listen to, as for our dwindling home TV viewing.
Really appreciate the video and yes I think it's a good thing to see what letters everyone gets, as individuals we are more likely to be in terminated by these letters but by showing they are Commonplace it is not such a scary thing, yes and BBC TV Licensing uses fear of financial loss or breaking law to get you to pay.
Fear. Just dont answer the door. Capita employees may have been bullied at school?......and 'maybe' looking for retribution?. only they know!
Never tell them you don’t need it. That could be used as evidence against you.
Apart from telling them the first time I stopped paying my licence, which was over three years ago, and getting a visit a little while later, I haven't filled in a two year declaration and I haven't had a single letter!! I'm a very lucky lady 😊
I actually had a interview to be a goon. The pay is quite good £30k+ per year. Interview was done on teams and was asked awkward questions. Didn't get the job
Good to see you back Jon - and yes I've got exactly the same letter 😂 - it would be a good time for them to pop around tbh as I'm currently not answering the door to all the political characters who are suddenly interested in getting my vote, so I can add the TV licence 'enforcers' to the list of ignored callers 😎
imagine if supermarkets did this lol we notice you havnt bought some bread recently, if you dont require bread, then you may be liable for a 200 quid fine ...its laughable
I had a visit other day just said no thanks and closed door - should I expect to hear more from them?
You might get a return visit, but for them it's a numbers game. The goons earn commission, so they can't waste time on a useless address.
If you like in a big town / city you stand more of a chance of a return visit at some point
@@ChilliJonCarne thanks for taking the time to reply it’s most appreciated and keep up the good work 👍
If any letter says legal occupier it's not specifically for you. I had loads when I moved into my flat.
been licence free for 20 years had a few " we are in your area and have authorised a visit " but no one has ever called, lots of other letters but they fit in the recycle bin. :)
They have been in my area for 20 + years!.Never aknowledged.
I've spoken to People who pay the tax and I've asked them why do you pay it?
No one has ever said that it is good value for Money. We don't want to get in any trouble, best to stay legal or we do watch East Enders.
John, don’t rely on living on a top floor flat as protection. I am a delivery driver in the UK and I believe I witnessed a goon buzz a different flat to gain access to the building under the guise of being from the “council”.
They will often buzz a different number flat to the one they are actually visiting. So still expect the knock.
That must be tresspass.
I live in a sheltered flat, and we are not obliged to buzz anyone in (unless it's the postman), if the person they are wishing to visit/communicate with is not answering their entryphone. I do have a TV but do not watch BBC or any live broadcasts, only talking pictures TV or the crime channel....all the others are crap in my opinion.
I have lived at the same address for 21 years and have never had a tv licence.
I get the occasional letters. WILL YOU BE HOME…..
WE HAVE INSPECTORS IN YOUR AREA…..
They are all addressed to
THE OCCUPANT. I’ve always just posted them back, marked, ‘NOT KNOWN AT THIS ADDRESS.’
The bit about how many doors they knock on is ridiculous, 5000 a day works out if they do 12hrs around 420 every hour for the whole country, ether they are lazy or that's the number of doors that get opened to them. Your postman mostly delivers in a single morning to more doors in one day.
I've had the very same letter. I photograph them and put them in my Facebook page. Usually get a few laughs from friends. They can keep them coming, it's not my licence money that's paying for all this bulls¥₩t.
Two years now since I had a Goon visit, unfortunately I was away so never had the pleasure of shutting my door on them!
Brilliant advice as ever. Thank you so much. I feel harassed with letters and door knocks, they're BBC bullies.
They get away with it because no one has taken them to court over threatened behaviour 💯😡😡
If you have already notified them you don't need a license then when they knock just tell them to go check their records.
TV licence inspectors are those who failed to make it as a traffic warden
March 2023. Politely phoned up to cancel. All well and good.
September 2023 the first harrassing/threatening letter arrived.
By December 2023 i had FIVE letters, the last threatening a visit 'on ar after 14th December at any time during the day, evening or weekend'.
And THAT is why I will NOT be telling them i don't need a licence again and will just slam the door in their harrassing F'n face.
I will treat them in the same way as they have treated me.
First mistake was telling them.. you don't need to... bin the letters or send to your mp asking why you are being harrasesed for services not used..
Mine will be on it’s way soon, thanks for the heads up Jon😮
It’s arrived!!!
I've not had a letter from TV licensing for over 16 years since I had a visit, yet some people get loads of them, I feel abandoned.
Not had a TV Licence for 22 years. Dont even watch TV or any live broadcast TV or recorded TV or BBC iPlayer.
I dont have satellite or cable TV or and Digital TV
I rearly watch Netflix or Disney+ on demand services (not live) (which does not need a TV licence.
Thanks for all your work Jon, keep em coming.
Cancelled my TV licence over a year ago and heard nothing.
Excellent advise. Thank you.
Im lucky nothing in 26 years, 1 visit after 5 nothing more.
Remember its subscription listen to Jon.
Best keep your head down and your mouth shut or you'll end up with a criminal record and jailtime if they get you in court.
I don't need one, only dvd and videos haven't hax a connected tv fo 31 years
@@VictorLaszlo-iz3ilfor what crime?
Any letters I get that are just addressed to "OCCUPIER" or whatever, and not to me by name, I don't open them, and just write not "NOT KNOWN AT THIS ADDRESS" on the front and put them in the letter box, so they'll be returned to the senders.
Just got my investigation letter today even after telling them i dont watch tv and dont want a licence. my property is vacant due to moving. letter binned
2 weeks into moving into a flat with no tv aerial and phone line (reason i have not rushed to get a tv license) I know I am settled in having recieved a letter to say I am also under investigation!
Keep on making these videos Jon because it shows people how consistent you are with what you know - people can't ignore that despite whatever opinions they may hold!
Your advice is brilliant. I shall follow it. 😊
About 10 years ago they turned up on my dad's doorstep stating that their records showed no valid tv license at his address. He stated that he did indeed have a valid license, and showed it to them. They said that their records showed a different name at his address, and asked for proof of I.D. He said their records were obviously wrong and showed them his driving license. They still wouldn't accept it, and harassed him for months, until he threatened them with legal action. They are crooks who will try anything to get your money.
Good evening johnny👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻just got my new toilet paper letter🤣🤣👍🏻
I restricted access to my property by phoning them up and telling them that I wished to restrict access to my address, once you have done this they are not allowed to post or call at your address, I did this some 15 years ago now, no one has ever called and i never receive post from them
It is legal to listen to all audio music channels (no picture) on the TV...without a license.
Not had one for 4 years.
I was really looking forward to an "enforcement officer" calling round for a chat as the driveway and lawn sprinklers can be operated by remote from my phone.😇
I declared a no TV licence form online and 6 months later got yet another letter saying 'we think you've broken this agreement, phone us to buy a TV licence'... nope not falling for their mis truths
