They can't give you a court summons if they don't know your name . Every single conviction concerning not having a licence is due to the person admitting they were using a TV without a licence, they cannot prove by any means you watch normal TV channels on it as such and you do not have to let them into your home.Tell them to go away not come back and all representatives of the BBC are not welcome on your property and you will remove them as trespassers if they come back in the future..They will take you to court of your stupid enough to admit to it,just do not admit to it and they cannot prove otherwise mate.. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The tone of their letters gets right on my tits - they're designed to scare old folks and vulnerable people into paying whether they need it or not. I can be grumpy with little hitlers like this at the best of times but, I've got Covid at the moment (only like a man cold) so, I've got the hump a bit anyway - I hope they do turn up, I'll put the c**t clean out of my front garden. That'll cheer me right up 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
