TV License harassment

[DragonFly1967]

Sorry to drag up an old thread, but I'm legally licence free, and have been for years. I do of course still get, at least on a bi-monthly basis, the Threat-o-Gramms from TVL/Capita/BBC.

 

But I don't throw them in the bin, that would be far too easy. I save them all in a shoe box in the hall, and if and when the TVL goon comes to call, I give them back to him to "recycle".

 

I think the last time one called here, about 3 years ago, I gave him a bundle of about 28 letters. All unopened.

 

The box currently contains 22 letters just sat there waiting for my next victim.

 

 

 

If I can make it to 30, I might stick them all in a Jiffy bag, and post the whole thing back to Aunty beeb, with POSTAGE WILL BE PAID ON RECEIPT written on the package. I may or may not add to the weight by including crushed house bricks

For the past couple of years at least I have only being paying the t.v. Licence as I couldn't face all this hassle and threats.

 

Because I was paying, I threw the t.v. On as some background noise.

 

I can't stand the t.v. I have been a few days with it off completely and life is so much better. I had already been staggering payments for the license and since I struggle for money, I just don't want to be paying for a service I don't really want or need.

 

I want to sell my T.V. should get £100 and with the saving of a years worth of license, that is a substantial amount.

 

Unfortunately, I still have anxiety about stopping paying the t.v. License people as I do not cope well with these kinds of letters.

 

I found this in case anyone finds it useful:

Doesn't matter what the letters say. Ignore them. Doesn't matter if they come knocking. Ignore them. Just the same as you would do with any dca that comes knocking at your door.

 

Capita rely on you turning yourself in so they make huge profits and bonuses. Ignore them and they are almost rendered impotent.
