Before I begin I feel I should say that I am a bit surprised that there is no separate section for TV License issues. That said, I don't have a television and I haven't had one for about eight years. I realise that probably makes me look quite peculiar to most people but I used to watch about an hour a week on a Friday night and then realised how much that was costing me per hour and decided that it wasn't worth it - something like £2.00 per hour, if I remember correctly, and asked my then landlord to take it away. He refused and I put the television in my wardrobe and wrote to TV Licensing explaining what I had done - they seemed happy with the situation. Since then, I am so accustomed to my blissful TeeVeeFree life that I would not have one if Jonathan Ross personally installed a gold plated 3D 60" 5.1 Dolby 8 valve organic FairTrade™ gluten-free Yamahonduki if the license fee was payable to me as reward simply for having the junk in my house. I actually feel physically sick when I visit other people and their televisions are on - they never have the manners to switch them off when they have company. Plus, I live in a rented unfurnished house with an aerial on the roof which drives me insane when it is windy. That all said, I do have an HD projector and a Blu-Ray player because I enjoy occasionally watching my own choice of films. And it is not a requirement to have a license unless you watch television programmes on any device, as they are being shown on TV' - their words. But I still get regular letters from TV Licensing which border on intimidating. I have written to them to tell them how I feel about the stupid things and invited them to come at their convenience to inspect my house. But instead they keep sending me letters threatening with 'a visit' and to treat my address as 'unlicensed'. It is unlicensed! For a very good reason. Surely, the license fee constitutes a service charge and the onus is on them to prove that I am using the service - not vice-versa. Sure, I could simply play their game and fill in their forms every time I get a letter or phone the non-free phone number which does not have any indication of the call rates - but I fail to see why I should simply to assert that my ownership of a television should not be taken for granted.
