"Just had to pay them an extra £16 for telling them I'm moving house Wouldn't mind paying if i would've agreed with their standards, but too many double standards for my liking x" Could you not cancel then start it again at the new address and not pay the £16? | |||

Crossed my mind, but that would probably take dozens of emails and letters because they'd prefer to charge everyone an extra £16. Figured it's not worth the hassle x | |||

"Don't pay it and won't pay it! I don't have cable tv, it's mainly Netflix and Amazon prime if I watch anything. Letters go straight in the bin and I'm still waiting on that so called licence officer to come to my door like they keep threatening me with." Came to our door a few times.....just dinghyed him and turned Eastenders up to drown out the door bell... | |||

"You are not paying a licence to watch TV, you are paying a licence to own ANY equipment capable of receiving a TV signal. The fact that the fee funds the BBC is irrelevant, and even if you don't watch terrestrial TV channels, you have to have a licence." But only if it has a tuner - if you use a monitor then you don’t require one. An engineer friend of mine removed the tuner from his TVs and challenged them to prove he was capable of receiving and deciding the signals. They lost and he won | |||

"Never paid it in my puff. And they can threaten to visit all they like, all they'll find is a telly with a PS4 and a firestick attached. I haven't had broadcast TV for a couple years. Firestick with a couple apps for movies and that's it" But you HAVE a TV. With a tuner. That’s capable of picking up transmissions. Therefore you should technically be paying. | |||

Mere ownership of any sort of equipment does not automatically need a TV licence. It is the actual act of receiving TV programmes (or BBC iPlayer on-demand programmes) that requires a TV licence. | |||

" It is literally Bbc programming and streaming apps your paying for if you have a TV and don't watch or use any Bbc products your not obliged to pay for a license not that i would anyway Ofcom are a joke and as said earlier in the thread your basically supporting false media used to promote ignorance and political bias to divide the population. I dont want to start up more nonsense but yesterdays sexual harrassment discussion was clearly popularised by Bbc radio 5? In no way did anyone stop.and take a second to think the Bbc are well known for being full of it. Everyone just went on as directed ripping into each other playing the victim card left and right nothing got sorted or really discussed it was just a shit slinging match with no actual facts or sources just radio 5 said this? | |||
