How does a TV licence rate as 'paid for' TV?0
-
Some people just have a TV licence but no other extra paid for TV services.
Some people (around 3.4%) like myself are saying they don't pay for a TV licence or pay for any of the listed options at all. (That seems a high percentage to me, I thought I was more in the minority than that!)
Indecision is the key to flexibility0 -
yeah, dont watch live TV or iPlayer. So don't pay TV license. Everything is netfllix & youtube. Netflix is a shared account with 3 households - they are going to stop that soon though, lock it to certain IP addresses per account.

If MSE asked about tv licences maybe it would be useful to them to split the question up:I don’t pay for tv licence becauseI don't watch tv
I refuse to pay
I dont have to pay as I am over 75 and on Pension Credit
I do pay as follows
The full amount
I pay £7.50 because that’s all over 60s living in sheltered accommodation have to pay0 -

Back on topic
I do pay for too much so cancelling 1 or more of the services is an option.0 -
I buy groceries from Aldi and Sainsbury’s, stuff from Boots and Superdrug, also Colgate toothpaste and occasional bits from Amazon, these are advertised on commercial TV, so yes I’m paying for ‘free’ ITV, Ch4, Ch5 etc.Posts are not advice and must not be relied upon.0

I have/pay for Prime mainly for the delivery, but the tv is a nice bonus - I wouldn't pay for Prime TV alone - but the question doesn't ask whether people have it bundled or seperate?0
