Do you have problems reading Paul because I've said a few times now that the TV Licensing don't believe anyone and class you as guilty until proven innocent.Paul_Herring wrote:"My Friends"? I don't know anyone who works for the BBC..
its rumoured the BBC to pay people to troll the forums and post untruths if people start questioning the mighty BBC (how much ? )Paul_Herring wrote:Anyway, rubbish. I've had some of those letters you've scanned in. I've rung them up to explain the situation, both at my logings, and my mum's house after she moved out, and they stopped sending their letters. Granted they said they would stop for only 3 months
And they insist in sending one of the TVL gestapo officers round because like I've had to keep telling you they presume you are guilty until proven innocent.Paul_Herring wrote:but where I live they appear to have stopped sending them completely. The only reason you're still getting them is you appear to be point blank refusing to contact them.
No I just don't believe in giving scum,spamming & nazi like organisations my name and its really that simple.Paul_Herring wrote:Or if you do, you're going completely the wrong way about it. (I lost my rag one time on the phone to them complaining about the letters
I've come across loads of people who do this and get no where my BBC give us you're money friend. I'll ask you now though why should I spend my time and money trying to contact them just to get more crap in return ?Paul_Herring wrote:- didn't do much good but made me feel better at the time, was much calmer on the next letter, and they stopped.)
Sorry but as you may have worked out by now I'm not on the payrollPaul_Herring wrote:What do you mean by subsidise? Would you care to expand on this? Since I don't have a TV?
Then why are you so interested in it then. Please go out and get yourself a lifePaul_Herring wrote:And why do you feel it necessary to attack people personally - I'm the second person you've done it to on this thread.
No I've suspected you to be looking for trouble since I seen the rubbish being posted and now you've just admitted you don't even have a TV.
Face it if you really don't have a TV you shouldn't feel threatened to get in touch with the BBC's SS. You shouldn't be getting letters in the post with Our Enforcement Officers are coming round (they came round once and haven't been back since)
My Grandfather died last year at the age of 85yr and even he was recieving this rubbish and its the state that was paying his TV Licence arrghh0 -
Ok - I've had enough of this character assasination - it appears that anyone you disagree with works for, or is on the payroll of the BBC, and once you've formed that opinion, you resort to personal attacks.
Instead of calm discussion, you appear to be looking for a fight, and you've only posted 33 times - do you have some sort of agenda here?Defiant wrote:Please go out and get yourself a lifeDefiant wrote:its rumoured the BBC to pay people to troll the forums and post untruths if people start questioning the mighty BBC (how much ? )Conjugating the verb 'to be":

Personal attacks lol I think people are seeing you're agenda Paul and its a red herringPaul_Herring wrote:Instead of calm discussion, you appear to be looking for a fight, and you've only posted 33 times - do you have some sort of agenda here?
calm discussion ? You've just admitted you don't even have a TV yet still stick up for the mighty BBC. Don't you think people should have a right to watch the true FTA channels without paying for the mighty BBC first ?Paul_Herring wrote:And since the quality of your arguements go this low
says "I don't have a TV but I love the BBC"Paul_Herring wrote:I'll be placing you on ignore. You're unwilling to listen to others' points of view, instead you just shout your own without regard to what's been said before.
Pot calling the kettle me thinksPaul_Herring wrote:You accuse me of trolling - may I suggest you look in the mirror?
Tell me what did you think of the BBC's TV Licensing sending threatening letters to an 85yr old man who's already had a bad heart (had two heart attacks) ?
What do you think of low income families and single parents getting locked up because they can't afford the TV Licence ?
What do you think of Asylum Seekers getting FREE TV's and FREE TV Licence's ?0
