You can even withdraw their right to use your front path and doorbell.
Indeed no more "Rights" than a double glazing agent. Ignore their stupid computer generated letters, don't open the door to strangers and don't answer anonymous phone calls. I thought that this was common sense.
Actually based on experience they might call once every 6-9 months, easily spotted as they look like complete bozos.
There's absolutely NOTHING they can do, despite their apparent claims otherwise. The more people realise this the sooner this iniquitous tax can be abandoned
Simply don't pay. We haven't for the last five years, we don't watch or use the BBC and don't pay for it.
If the BBC was so good it would have no problem being subscription ONLY (If you want no ads) |
I have promised myself to cancel my TV license in the new year, I watch very little television because I have little time to waste. Live TV doesn't suite my lifestyle so it's rare that I watch a program live. I have watched one BBC program over the Christmas period and I wasn't even at my own home when I was watching it.
Anyone who doesn't wish to watch live TV such as myself needs not have a TV license, not even to watch BBC iplayer if you so wish. TVL deliberately make it unclear to make it look like anyone with a TV needs a license, but this is not the case.
I will be cancelling my direct debit and I will not be filling in and signing their form to cancel that supposedly gives them the right to access to my property! Yeh right
ps. I seem to know a lot more people these days who will not pay and are not afraid of TVL
