Tell them your TV was out of the country for the months inbetween so no license was needed.

I have had this situation and what you do is you go into the post office and tell them how you just moved into the house and its a new licence. Do not take any licence reminder letter with you as the just continue on from it.

They issue you one from todays date. I do recall once I got a letter to say they made a match and have backdated it to the expiry of the last one but I ignored it as it was the first time I had bought one as I had not lived in that property.

I didn't have one for a year and a half. Inspector comes around and left the note to say he called.

I then went on line and bought one. Haven't heard any more since. Licence came in the post and nothing else about backdating it.
