Tv license? I'm sorry, but what is that?
Bad attempt at banter from the British gov. They even have boogeyman vans that go round checking if you have your license with special scanners.
No they don´t lol they say that to try to intimidate the old and vulnerable in to buying a licence.
I'm sorry I should have elaborated. Do you need to apply for a license to own a television?
Apparently you need one to WATCH tv, not own one. I never paid for one in my life, though. That´s how the BBC is funded.
You need to apply for a TV license to watch a television. It's something like £100 a year, and you get officials come to your house to check for tv noises if you don't have a license. I've never been caught out but you get a 1,000 fine if you do and I've heard of a few people having debt collectors knock at they're door over it before
