TV Licence article Discussion

Cornucopia

In order to trace "you", they match email addresses between iPlayer (BBC ID) and No Licence Needed (or something similar).

If they make such a match, they sending a warning. They cannot do anything more than that because the method doesn't provide robust evidence of an offence.

I have told TVL several times now (by phone) that no licence is needed at my property, but I refuse to give them any personal data: they don't have my name, email, or phone number. If I call them, I withhold my number. Letters are addressed to the occupier.

I don't have anything to hide, but I'm not a BBC customer and feel strongly that they have no right to store my personal data. I would encourage others to do the same.

Another £5.50 increase for those that still buy one

But that's such good value - £180pa is only 0.034p a minute....

Just back from a few days away in the UK, so watched some broadcast channels for the first time in a while. Truly shocked at the poor quality of some of the programmes, the poor choice of content, and the awful irritating adverts (on Sky News at breakfast time). I must confess though that most of what we watched was on BBC iPlayer. If it was possible to subscribe to iPlayer for a month at a time, I would probably pay for two or three months a year..

I got the “10 Day Window” letter on Friday from TVL. Now sent to the Legal Occupier rather than my name, as used to be the case. Maybe as I don’t communicate with them now.

Intended to file in bin, but I have highlighted some words and will keep for their Enforcement Team.

Words like;

Correctly licensed

On Hold

Breaking the Law

Only have until…..

What to do if you don’t need one.

That last one will do me- I will do nothing, as I don’t need one.
