I’d equally be amazed if Sky/Virgin still notify, but I’m sure those at TV licensing would never voluntarily clarify if this was the case. The belief alone will endure a few sign up, those that don’t can be harassed in the usual manner.

Virgin obviously don't as we take the TV pack as part of a bundle deal and TVL still don't know who the "occupier" is. :rofl:

Why does anybody take these bozos seriously?

If you only have a B&W TV but have VM equipment that records then by the letter of the law you need a colour licence as this covers recording in colour.

Re: Using VM TV with a black & white TV licence.

If there’s no legal requirement anyone can find on the statute books then under data protection and GDPR it’d probably be illegal for Sky/Virgin to pass details on to be used/processed by a private sector contractor enforcing TVL.
