[UK] 7000 homes block visits from the TV licence enforcers..

...Growing numbers taking advantage of legal loophole that means they can threaten to sue collectors for trespass

I am amazed this report was released!!

Basically what they are doing is saying they do not authorise them to be on thier property so the ppl leave so they arent cited..

 

The whole time I'm reading this article I'm thinking WhAt tHe FUCK is TV License fee???

I had to look it up.

It costs £145.50 for a colour and £49.00 for a black and white TV Licence. In some cases, you may be entitled to a reduced fee TV Licence (see table below).

Holy fuck!

 

Indeed so.......... I guess they dont scramble thier signal OR HAVE COMMERCIALS so they kinda force everyone (or try to) to support them......

 

i thought the onion always put their logo on their web pages.

 

So these people don't pay, and everyone else picks up the slack.

 

That's like $300 a year to watch 6 episodes of Mrs. Brown's Boys...
Is that REALLY a lot of slack?
