Does anybody know of anyone who was actually brought to court for not having a tv license?

Yes. Also, people have gone to jail for refusing to pay the fine.

They've heard all the excuses.... all of them.

As long as they don't have your name and you don't answer the door to them, you will be fine.

Nobdy is ever brought to court for that.







You'd have to drive or maybe take a taxi.

I believe Kevin Barry was brought to court over not paying his tv license and they hung him. Cough up buster.

dit guitar society

we had to pay ours as they caught an old tenant who was moving out who had a broken telly,
we dont even have a tv anymore,
may they burn in hell

kfallon

Well I haven't

I'll never pay one again and I'll never answer my door so I won't be caught

AstonMartin

regarding the procedure.

they show up to the house. someone foolishly gives their real name and then tells the people they live with that they ****ed up and now everyone has to pay up.

they get the tv license and give the nosy ****er who had to see who knocked a slap.



or:



the tv license crowd sends out warning letters saying you have to get a tv license now and they send out a few letters.

how long before they take any action?

yoyo

I was summonsed to court for having a ****ing license! A letter sorted that out... So yes it happens, I get one for free luckily, would rather ditch the TV than pay for that sh!te

Happened to us - letter sent out -
then a guy knocked and one housemate opened - said he just moved in and that he didnt know anybodies name - he also gave a fake name -
the inspector told him to pay or go to court -

we didnt pay and just didnt open the door for the next 3 months - we still got letters however just didnt open them
