It came to my attention last week that we have been paying two TV licence fees. 
Im going to try and claim a refund and have filled in their online form to send off today.
Anyone else had experience of reclaiming?
I'm not going to hold my breath but its worth a bash.
Im really surprised they don't have a system in place to notify customers of such issues...
The second i cancelled DD on the second licence a letter popped through the door
Funny that :mad:

Three years!! My god I check my bank account weekly, there is no way I could do such a thing. Good luck getting a refund.

If you have been paying for two licenses at one property then I'm certain you'll receive a refund of one of them.
I think the lesson to learn here is to check bank statements on a regular basis. Three years is a long time to not discover such an error.0 -

I'm surprised they never got in touch to ask why you were paying for two, but maybe people buy two licences if they have a holiday home or if they're paying the cost of a licence for kids away at Uni. They must presume people know what they're paying.Liverpool is one of the wonders of Britain,
What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

I'm surprised that you don't have such a system in place. You only have one licence to manage, they have millions...No free lunch, and no free laptop
