They made you pay for a licence even though you worked for the cunts?

Agree the licence fee is outdated I've always paid mine as its worth it just to not see adverts every fifteen minutes.
Also having worked for the BBC for eighteen years it was a sackable offence to get caught without one.
It now provides me with a pension so up yours all you non payers.

When Boris was PM I was sure he said that they were stopping prosecutions for non payment of BBC licenses!
I live abroad and haven't bought one for donkey's years although when I lived in France, I had to pay a broadcast fee with the rates or Tax Foncierre they call it.

When my daughter went to Uni the digs she was in the 2nd year never had a TV aerial so they just watched everything on line via a firestick.... mainly Youtube, Disney+ and Netfix... never once did they go on BBC i player or any of the other terrestrial TV platforms... anyway she had a knock at the door from the TV licence people... she explained they did not have an aerial and never even watched i player etc... did not wash... got a warning letter... she wanted to dig her heels in and in the end I paid it for her... mainly as you never win against these things (as have found out in my younger past)...

A licence to transmit I can fully understand otherwise every cunt and his cousin would be on the air, but needing a licence to receive what's being put out there?
Biggest pants-pulling down con since religion took hold.

Never. Haven't bought one for about 15 years. They send out pointless letters warning you they are in the area and nothing is ever done. A complete rip off and waste of time.

Some years ago I had one of their detector vans pull up outside my house. Bloke got out and waved this detector thing around and put a letter through the door. Never heard anything after that.

A BBC van pulled up just as a woman was leaving for work the BBC confronted her regarding a valid license and she said that her husband was in and that the license was behind the clock.
The BBC knocked at the door and asked to see the license and he replied sorry I don't know where it is... the fella replied that it was behind the clock !!!
Feck me mate that's some van you've got there.

I pay it as I listen to a bit of their radio output and watch MOTD2 every week ( stopped watching motd as cant abide GL) and the Mrs watches some stuff on iplayer so not goingto be a hypocrite by not paying.
Lisence should be scrapped tho, put their 'world class' service to the test.

When I worked at the Post office in the mid eighties we used to get paid overtime for driving around in the tv detective van for two weeks of the year.
It had a weird revolving coat hanger type thing on the roof which done fuck all and a couple of tables in the back which we used to play cards and eat our sandwiches on.
The instruction was to wear smart civvies drive around slowly and park up for a while around housing estates big blocks of flats etc and of course not to tell anyone it wasn't real.

“It’s truly amazing what we’re pulling off, by the way. That most households are pretty happy paying a licence being a forced payment. It’s amazing what we’re pulling off.”
Tell you what, Davie — remove the legal requirement to have a licence and see how truly amazing households really are?

I dont agree with the BBC tax, but on the flip side it does mean you only have to endure those cunting "we buy any car" ads on commercial channels...especially the one with the jock

Bloke I used to work with did, didn’t pay the fine and got a month in clink.
Contempt of court apparently.
I have only bought one tv licence in my life, the day after I moved into my new flat I got a threatening letter about not having one.
It’s in the bin now.
