TV Licence Renewal

    I am currently in the process of moving out of my rented accomodation and moving back home for a short time before leaving the country. I keep getting TV Licence Renewal letters, as my licence expired on 1 August. I am moving out in 10 days and so I really didnt feel the need to pay a whole years fee for 5 weeks. Can I ring them and tell them that, or will that just get them to pay me a visit and do me? I am moving to a house that already has a valid licence, so it would be silly to get another and transfer it.

    Thanks for any advice

    Get the thought of paying it out of your head now.

    Feck them and all their horses.

    If you can live without TV for 10 days, just pack it up and put it away...then in the unlikely event of you being inspected, they can see that there's no television in the place (they're unlikely to check through all your boxes).

    If you can't live without TV for 10 days, then either pay the full licence for a year, or break the law...if your family home licence is nearly up, you can always get a licence for your place, then transfer it to your family home so that they have a licence for longer...

    10 days I would't give a monkeys, 10 months maybe.
