    Good on ya for cutting the cord. TV is the devil.

    Still need a licence if your blind it's just cheaper than the standard licence

    Majority of people who end up in trouble is because they engaged in a conversation with the goons or even signed the 187 form, the goons have been known to pose as meter readers so just be aware. The way I do things is if I'm.not expecting any visitors then I don't answer the door, no contact no contract.

    Surely they would only end up in trouble if they haven't a TV licence AND are watching live TV? That's a big difference.

    My tv works perfectly fine without a license , admission is the problem and that's how they get you. Like I say no contact no contract it really is that simple

    Sure, but that isn't a reason to complain about being caught.

    See the sprinter smoking weed thread...

    If you get caught its purely because you fucked up by letting them in and signing the 187 form if you don't do any of those they can't do shit to you
