LoLz BBC channels have no adverts at all Watching a USA show on BBC is funny, it seems like there should be a break every 5-10 minutes or so. Every 10 minutes they tell you what the program is about. Problem is what with modern TV you end up paying the license but only BBC is ad free, the other channels have ads as normal. You only need license for live TV, not for recordings of off TV channels web sites |

You can own a TV and use it for a games console, a computer, a dvd player etc... but you do not need a license to do so. |

Watch How This Pissed Off Brit Anwers His Door & Makes Them Run AWAY!! VIDEO !! LoLz I might be doing away with my TV licence soon as i don't watch live television at all. Hell i might even ditch the TV completely and make do with a 30 inch computer screen, my laptop and ipad for netflix etc. I might even buy a projector for movies. It will be funny if these guys call round. Because i wouldnt even have a TV at all. The only thing i watch live is the NEWS Channels, but i could just use the internet for that as the feeds for Russia Today, Al Jazeera and Sky News are not part of the licensing cost. I don't listen to BBC radio as all the music they play is SHIT. I would basically have to give up watching BBC News to save £145.50 a year which is the only thing i actually watch anyway. I think i will consider this once christmas is out of the way. |

LoLz Also, the Brit Gov have people executed by a public guillotine if they are found guilty in court of watching TV without a license. It's inhumane, but people are too afraid to speak up for fear of being executed in public also.

LoLz The only reason im paying it right now is so the clowns dont call round and annoy me every other day, but if im not using LIVE TV which i pretty much dont other than BBC news its pointless paying for something i 99.999% of the time never use. 145 quid makes me think fuck it, ill give up BBC NEWS and just use another computer to stream Russia Today or Skynews live instead. Im going to seriously think about fucking the TV off to be honest. |

There is nothing they can do as long as you do not give them your details or let them in your house.

Watch How This Pissed Off Brit Anwers His Door & Makes Them Run AWAY!! VIDEO !! LoLz This thread could have just cost the BBC up 10 thousand dollars over the next 30 years. Thats if i payed the fee for the next 30 years. The way im seeing it now is that its unsustainable with the internet and im just jumping ship early, i bet the license gets scraped within 5 or 10 years because of the internet...im not sure how they are going to keep enforcing this if people use the internet and dont watch TV so much. If i get out now ill probably save about 800-1500 quid by my reckoning. Better out now than thinking why didnt i do this back in 2012 in 2020. If i think about it i could have done this a few years back without much effort. |

Ill just ditch the 24 inch monitor for something bigger like a 27 or 30 inch monitor. I'd actually be happy to let them in to see i dont have a TV once its gone. I may get the urge to wind them up a bit first though. I might let them in and put gay porn on a projector or something! LOOK NO TV!! of excuse the balls flapping about, i work as a video editor for pornographic websites, LOLOL. |

I forget to watch them for months at a time. I can stream them on Iplayer a couple of days later and not pay anything because im not watching them live. |
