you just stop paying
You just stop watching the BBC
they send some threatening letters round...
if they move to a subscription model, you'll be able to watch tv without a license
just not the bbc
you sign a thing saying you want to "cancel"
i dont but because i have a computer that can access it i have to pay
in theory, they could make you, brett.
in practice, they don't charge you for that
Stop watching TV
i got nabbed with a stonkling £500 fine
And use your TV screen for your PC monitor
Stop watching Netflix without a subscription too
Netflix is gay
Nothing on it
>paying for tv
I'm not brit. Can you explain something please? When do you pay the BBC tax, when you buy a TV... or what? do you have people periodically going to your home to check if you have a TV?
fucking plebs
neither, DVHeld

pirate that shit you nibbas
The BBC have a list of all properties in the country, and a list of all the properties that have TV licenses
^
All the addresses that don't have licenses, they send letters to demanding you either buy a license, or send them a "we don't have a tv" form
But you need an account to watch the BBC online now
if you do neither, they'll check you out
They can't legally enter your home
Actually they can
i got a fucking bailiff barge into my house and start demanding items to the value of £500
Try it
If you refuse them, they can get a court order to enter your home with police backing
Try it
They do 🙂
Generally though, if you tell them you dont' have a tv and send them their form, they leave you alone
i haven't heard anything more from them in 3 years
"Oi mate! You 'ave a loisance for tha'?"
I prefer to let them waste their paper
But I agree with doing away with the license, it's retarded
can you game that system by having a TV and declaring to have none?
In theory, DV
your Scottish, your to poor to be worth a baliff
