      @Steve Gee You can't get in trouble for obstructing a warrant which was obtained by an act of perjury. To obtain a warrant they would need to show some evidence to the court, and satisfy certain conditions (S366 Communications Act if I remember correctly). If you're not watching broadcast TV they cannot have evidence that you are watching broadcast TV and therefore the only way they could have shown evidence to the court is by fabricating said evidence and lying to the court.
      Having been a victim of a home invasion I have to say anyone forcing their way in my house now gets the sharp edge of the billhook first and questions after, and that goes just as much for a constable in uniform with a valid warrant as it does for a goon or a baghead. No exceptions, I'd rather worry about the legal consequences later than end up undergoing another 20 years of surgery to stick me back together.

      Blot out your address AND the QR code boxes so they have to waste time and money opening the returned envelope to find out who they have unimpressed, opening the envelopes will also bulk up the amount of rubbish they have to dispose of.
      If you get the one with the "We have opened an investigation" window, write more than you can say for this envelope under the window, before returning to sender.
      If you get the Your IN01O0A34 window write... and you are G00N5 under the window before returning to sender.
      The more people waste their time and effort and show that they are not frightened by the letters the less attractive the economics of sending them will be.

      To obtain a warrant they need proof that you are watching live TV or BBC iplayer, if they haven't got proof they can't get warrant.

    U.S. used to laugh at U.K., but we now have "broadcast TV surcharge." If you get your TV by cable or DBS, usually that $17 is added to your monthly bill. I have antenna and pay no fee.

    Hi.. thinking of not renewing my licence in April. I have things recorded on Sky box…. Will I have to delete them if not viewed by April or can I still watch them after as long as I don’t record anything else.

    Great channel by the way.
    My question is
    If they have a warrant
    And your Not in
    Can they still force entry?
    As I'm Not sure.

      I'm sure I've read somewhere that they can't enter the premises without you being present. Does this constitute as obstruction if you walk out or refuse to enter I don't know?

    What does it prove if they gain access into somebody's home? It's not illegal to own a TV. So they enter and see a TV then what? You need an arieal to recive the radio stations. BBC iplayer comes pre-installed on most TVs and it can't be removed.
    What is the irrefutable evidence they will use to show someone has been watching live TV or BBC iplayer? I don't believe they can do that.

    I received the same letter in my accomodation where I stay sometimes on weekdays in Southend on sea. I have a tv license for my home in london which is my main residence. I do not have a tv in my accomodation but I use my tablet and phone when I am my accomodation and sometimes I watch bbc iPlayer , Can I still use it when I’m away from home? And what to answer them if they came knocking ?

    I'm not going to watch this one. Any force used is a 'malicious prosecution 'of practice. No physical pressure, nor a shoulder nor a toe may cross your threshold without your invitation. Magistrates must throw any of this behaviour out immediately.

    If you don't watch chargeable channels that's fine. But if you do, buy a bloody licence, they're never going to give us a free licence, they only put up the annual fees for those that pay to compensate for those that don't pay. And yes, they can catch you out more these days with the new tech they use, I have 2 near by neighbours that recently now have hefty fines on top of the missed licence fee they didn't originally pay.
    I begrudge paying more money to make up for those that avoid paying ffs.
