Should I reply to TV Licence letters?
Just ignore them. We’ve not had a license for years, used to watch all the on demand channels – now ignore iplayer after the change in law. We’ve had tv licensing round twice over a few addresses and all you need to do is tell them to go away and dont come back. Don’t give them any information!
Are TV license letters harassment?
Generally speaking, everything that BBC/TVL routinely does is non-statutory (has no legislation behind it) and therefore you can ignore it. This includes the threatening letters and the routine “home visits”. None of the demands and coercion in the letters has any legal significance and they can all be safely ignored.
