Phoned them, can't go to court until an officer has checked my address, can't request an officer because theres none in the area. No other service in the UK requires you to specifically opt out. They harrass you until you subscribe. Thats all it is a monthly subscription same as netflix Disney etc. nothing else threatens and forces you to opt in or out

That shaky camera is the real crime.
I think everyone above the age of 70 is already aware of this
Jesus, just take and upload a photo! The shaky cam is giving us motion sickness!
Just ignore the letters. They will do nothing.
Unless you need one (sounds like you don’t) then it’s no bother opting out. Took me two minutes to do online.
I agree they can’t enforce it on you, and I’d be surprised if they took you to court to be honest. But I don’t know the ins and outs of it all. I just opted out as I don’t need the hassle and genuinely don’t need one.
Don’t you start giving Mickey Mouse ideas, he’ll set Pluto on ye
Just click the link below and say you don’t need a license and they’ll leave you alone.

My experience of getting a visit was quite good, the guy just asked if I watched TV and was happy with my response
We know for sure that Scott Robson has no pals.
Bastards
Never phone or contact them. This is a scare tactics letter. Throw in bin, move on with life.
TV licenses are an absurd idea and are a hangover from a time when only one network ruled the airwaves.
If I remember, there hasn’t been a case that has went to court that’s been prosecuted when people have defended themselves.
The majority of cases that do go and are in favour of the license are due to people not showing up.
It’s all a load of nonsense.
Second time posting this, this morning.
Just make a declaration on their website that you don’t watch live TV or use BBC services and they will leave you alone.
I’ve been doing it for around 10 years now and they never bother me, they just email every couple of years telling me to renew my declaration.

Good grief, why is the camera so shaky, are you having a Wank whilst filming this?
Do you know what a don’t understand about these folk. Why haven’t you gone on the website and filled in the form stating you don’t have a TV, and that’s the end of that? Why cause yourself all that stress? Zero sympathy for you, lad. You’re literally going about looking for trouble!
If you don’t need a license just call and tell them and they stop sending letters. Pretty simple
Ignore them, can’t do fuck all.
They keep threatening to send inspectors to my door too!
I’ve waited in and no one arrives……so disappointed…….these people have no right to enter your home and you are under no obligation to tell them who you are.
Someone learned camera work from the Blair Witch Project I see.
Just put them in the bin where they belong. The PedoBC can fuck right off.
You can go to court, go see a lawyer and do it yourself.. you can wait but you don’t have to answer or talk to them as they need physical evidence to claim you need one. By that point you don’t even need a lawyer your word is enough to refute it in court because they have no proof.
Never give them your name. If it says to the occupier you’re sound
How bored do you have to be to actually phone them?
There is no way that’s you just realising this in 2025 🤣 are you a new tenant or something?

Got this a week after I moved into my new flat, I haven’t even plugged in the TV. Anyone else sends a letter like this it would be extortion, no?
Just return them to sender, it’s a Capita warehouse/admin I think.
For all those Americans who have no clue what this is, they have a law where you need a “tv license “ to watch tv. It was such a stupid law that Monty Python did a sketch about it in the 70’s.
