No TV Licence
If you no longer wish to watch television and you are only going to use your TV screen for games and DVDs, how should you go about this, how do you let the television licencing people know? Is there something you can disable on your Tv so that they believe you? Thank you

This is a tricky one. If you have an aerial receiving signals which is attached to your TV then you have to pay. Best advice would be to take any aerial down and disable the aerial hole for the TV. MInd you a friend of mine has never owned a TV and had a devil of a job persuading the people of this fact.
Well surprise surprise there is a web site for TV licensing (who would have thought that eh)
And on that web site there is a place where you can say you no longer watch TV. It is here (took me about 15 seconds to find it)

if you fill that in and contact them they will want to search your house.
do what i do
tell them to go forth and mulitply
the people who call at your house are just salesmen, they use the word enforcer to make them sound big so just pull the aerial out and tape it up
and if they call don't speak to them as they have no power.

you have more chance of nessie giving you a bite than a tv detector van catching you
there is no such thing as a tv detector, no person has ever been found guilty with the evidence from one in a court of law
the only thing in that van is a laptop with all the addresses of properties that do not have a licence

notafish they love to visit young ladies and old folk as they scare them with the threat of a £1000 fine and a pace statement
if they call just close the door do not speak to them
if or when they call do not even tell them your name
they can't take a house to court that is why they want a name
they did a young lady near me when he said i am going to take your statement under the law she should have just said p1ss off and closed the door
even the police can't make you give a statement
