      Unfortunately, the law on the Statue books is worded in such a way that gives them the right to get away with it. It is a pathetic law, which in my opinion goes against common law and international law (fundamental right to be treated as innocent until proven guilty is also an international human right under Article 11 of the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights.) This private company, owned by Capita, are treating everyone as guilty under UK law, until they "assess" you as innocent and our politicians won't do anything about it!
      If I sent letters to MP's telling them they are guilty of murder because that sharp knife in their kitchen COULD be used to murder someone, there would be out-roar and so there should. Just because I own a TV does not mean I am guilty of using it to watch LIVE TV or recording it or using iPlayer!

    Maybe , back in the old days the bbc could justify their licence fee. They owned and maintained the tv transmitters, there were 2, 3 4 then 5 terrestrial channels(if you could pick it up). They made good educational documentaries,, music presentations , drama , comedy... they thought everyone loved sport, they had respected news reporting teams, they had no (very little) competition.
    These days , the tv and radio transmitters were sold off to private companies as was most of the bbc's technical duties. They have increased their channel numbers but don't have the content for more than a few hours a day, I was disowned as a radio listener a long time ago. They still pay crazy money for televising sport events , and their presenters. They are trying and failing to keep up with pay tv (and all the competition), and the bbc news channels have no credibility and have become part of the governments propaganda machine.
    As the bbc are now just "customers" of the tv transmitter companies, how can they say we need a tv licence to watch ANY channel live that ISN'T the bbc?
    They are not the "Broadcasting" company they used to be.
    Did the licence fee get reduced when the transmitters were sold off??
    The licence fee is archaic and irrelevant these days and the bbc should either be funded by adverts or by their government masters.

    I've been at this address for 23 years now and for most of those years I got my monthly letter imploring me to buy something I simply don't want nor have use for (I discovered my TV works just fine without a licence).
    They used to be addressed to me personally but after about 5 years they became "To the Legal Occupier". I have never acknowledged any communications nor have I spoken to anyone from TVL but about 10 months ago the letters stopped! Why? I have not got a clue but I'm very happy as it means my bin doesn't fill up so quickly.

    He asked to come inside to have look around to see if I had a TV.
    I refused.
    He said he had a right to enter my home for the purpose of verifying whether ot not I had a TV.

  • @davidspear9790
    @davidspear9790 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    The reason that they can get away with the language they use in the letters is simply because it's the law to have one if you watch live tv or iplayer, and, rightly or wrongly, all TVs come equipped with this facility. Maybe they could sell TVs with or without a live tv subscription? I bet they wouldn't sell many without live tv enablement!

    • @jackywhite880
      @jackywhite880 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      They DO sell TVs of this kind. They're called computer monitors.
      Connect a Roku box or similar to one with an hdmi cable and you're fine as long as you ensure you don't access live broadcasts.
      You don't need to prove you don't - they have to prove you do.
      Difficult if you simply deny them access and answer none of their questions - you have NO obligation to admit entry, answer questions, or even identify yourself to these pathetic door-to-door salesmen.
