For what it's worth (very little, I know :rolleyes: ) I agree with you that the BBC should be free.

However I don't think it's the place to encourage people not to pay their license fee. People don't a) have the balls to stand up to them like you, and b) and most importantly they don't have the money to risk getting a fine where as you are in the fortunate position of not having to worry about it!

:think:

Well kinda, but there is a definite LEGAL way that people can get 90 free days a year and it's not that hard. It involves cancelling their DD and paying in cash at the PO at certain dates. It's even easier than card tarting but that got hushed away quick now didn't it. *Grumbles*

Besides if people took to the time to read the site they would see that all the legal threats from Capita (who run the operation) are smoke and mirrors. I used to work for Capita! I've seen some of the internal memos on the TVL department.

i thought you couldnt buy your license from the po any more i know i had to buy mine from the corner shop using pay plan or something...i also admit it annoyed me the fact last year when i didnt have the money and opted to pay by ddm i paid for the year then they continued to take money off me it worked out i would be 6 months in advance i stopped payments then as i dont pay any bills in advance just when i get them so i wasnt about to start with them

Hmm well i'm glad lots of people are finding my posts amusing. I wish I could say the same about other peoples but I guess that's the difference between a serious MS'er like me and some hobo wannabes.

I seriously just don't understand what the big problem is. It's like people are adverse to saving money on this one?!? Beats me. But I'm in the mindset I don't want to be DF, I want to be very rich. It's a well known fact that millionaires bend the rules to suit them, so I guess that's the trait I've got

I know ultimately despite all these apparently funny posts, I'll be the one having the last laugh.

I'm ok thanks. How are you? I'm DF now and self employed which is working out really well. Apart from that everything else is the same. Still a fat !!!!! though so trying to get down to 10 stone before the festivities. *Sigh* What's news with you?

ten stone wish i could even get there i'm over 15 now and only 5 ft 1 ...need to get my head around the get fit stuff...just gave up college last week it totally broke my heart but i couldnt keep it and work up...great to hear your df now ...i'm hoping to be that way in about 3 years or so ...any tips?

elantan

what work you doing?

amosworks

Oh don't, I can't even do any exercise (above and beyond the weekend fun ) as I start growing muscle which bulks me up. Still on my goal to get down to 7 stone but it's taking me longer to do because without exercise the fat doesn't come off as quickly What plan are you following or are you just being sensible?

Sorry to hear you had to give up college. Is there any way next year you could carry on from where you left off at all? How about switching to the OU instead maybe??

For work I do all sorts of things but they generally revolve around ERP, BPM, CRM, SFA and loads of other 3LA's. Still gogo dancing every now and again but not for the money now it's just fun and a great excuse to get off my face on substance lol.
