My advice: lay low, put on your black face and take a working holiday in Somalia until this thing blows over.

>would i have to pay for that?
No.
>>27791327
Yes, it's really just a scam by the government to generate more money.
Just be like the guys on those anti-TV licensing youtube videos and yell at them until they leave.
>>27791293
>tv licence
What. Why. Its a tv not a gun. Are TVs so dangerous you britbongs need licences to own one?
>>27791321
yes you do
op who gives a shit. i haven't paid a tv license in 4 years. my mum didn't pay one all my life. all they do is send letters.
In order to get busted by the TV Licence people, you literally have to let them in your house while you're watching live TV, otherwise they have to get a warrant and it's a complete ballache for them to go through the process of getting one so they don't bother most of the time.

I watch BBC live on my Xbox. There is nothing they can do about it. No aerial so they won't suspect anything.
Every civilized country has tv license.

It's just such an inefficient system of collecting taxes, though. I mean why do some countries still have this policy in 2016? It must cost so much and take so much effort to enforce the licensing thing, surely they'd get more back through simply adding a tax somewhere?

That's wrong. In my country we have a tax for "culture" and most of it goes to funding the state TV stations. The tax is applied in the water bills so there is not way to escape it.

Do you have to pay for a TV license and a cable provider?
Why is Britain so cucked?
TV license..? Da fug is this shit
Is this a joke? Am I on TV right now?
>>27791293
If you legitimately dont watch tv, they cant collect it from you, right?
>>27792797
That's really hard to read. Can you explain?
You got fined for indecent exposure?
>>27793113
Looks like 18 months jail time. And he has to register as a sex offender.
>>27791321
no and you don't even have to let them in either

In Germany they just charge you monthly now. Originally only people who owned TVs or radios had to pay. Then they extended it to include car radios. Then they extended it to include computers with internet access. Now they just collect from every household, unless you're unemployed or disabled or something.
The official reasoning is that you need to pay a "broadcasting fee" if you own a device that would potentially make it possible for you to watch TV.
Some people sent them letters saying that they would like to apply for child support because even though they don't have children, they have the devices to potentially receive them. The government goons never replied of course.
TV Licenses should be a good thing and were until somewhat recently..
no tv ads cause u pay a trivial fee for it.

>>27791293
The BBC is such shit now, I really think it's time to scrap the license fee
>>27791500
That's what's funny, the license isn't even for cable it's for normal TV that you can pick up with a coat hanger.
Anyway only fools pay, they rely on scare tactics to scare you into coming forward. If you stay silent they can't do anything. Everyone gets the letter that OP did.
>>27794172
And people say Germans are humorless.
>>27795678
Humor is the only way to protect your sanity in the face of big government. The British seem to have the same problems.

I didn't even know about this brithong issue until now. Thanks I've got me some entertainment set for the next couple hours thanks to these YouTube videos
Paying for your TV license is like paying for WinRAR after the evaluation period is over
>>27797650
Its also illegal not to have cable in england.
Britcucks BTFO again
>>27799399

Haha what? That's even dumber than Obama combatting our terrible healthcare system by simply making it illegal to not buy health insurance.

Holy fuck even the US isn't this barbaric when it comes to technology that deals with personal usage of copyrighted stuff.
I thought the licence was only to watch the BBC?
am I wrong?
>>27799861
nope its for all TVs in the entire country, if you own one you must pay
>>27798218

Everyone just hates on America cus it's hip.
We're still the freest country on the planet.
Sure we have a large prison population, but that's because of a broken law system and industrial prison complex that are both being reconstructed.
As an American, you can visit any corner of the web and say just about anything without repercussion
>>27791293
You have to have a license to watch tv. That made my fucking day. Top fucking laugh
>>27793029
I imagine that it would be included with the bill.
>>27797650
Britain has far more over-the-air channels than America. It sucks that you have to pay, but it's not like you're paying for just three channels.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeview_(UK)
>>27801787
Erroneous. The licence fee has nothing to do with most of the programming there.
It funds the BBC, World Service, and some S4C programming. You are paying for relatively little.
>>27791293
>>27794019
BBC is a joke, they scape BBC3 the best channel and still expect you to pay for shows noone watches.
Im glad the internet exists
You can just ignore these letters and it's completely risk-free, a lot of the time they give up and if not, it still doesn't hurt you because you can't be sanctioned for accidentally throwing a letter in the trash. So it's either winning or break-even to ignore it.

Now I have a perfectly legitimate reason to to keep avoiding it
>>27791985
At least the uk has good shows unlike those other countries.
>>27791293
i haven't paid in over a decade, but i don't have a tv so yeah..
>>27794019
>If you watch or record television programmes as they're being shown on TV - whether on a TV, computer, etc
So basically you do not need a license unless you watch the handful of live BBC channels, which in itself is very hard to prove unless you admit to it. BBC is shite anyway.
>>27794172
do the refugees have to pay
>>27801492
at least we can watch whatever porn we want
>>27801559
we also have the 3rd largest population
we're competent enough to lock up our criminals unlike india (2nd)
and china (1st) is even more competent than we are
also we have lots of niggers and spics
