Why we're here:
This blog is to highlight the unjust persecution of legitimate non-TV users at the hands of TV Licensing. These people do not require a licence and are entitled to live without the unnecessary stress and inconvenience caused by TV Licensing's correspondence and employees.

If you use equipment to receive live broadcast TV programmes, or to watch or download BBC on-demand programmes via the iPlayer, then the law requires you to have a TV licence and we encourage you to buy one.

TV Licensing Letters: Dishonest, Misleading, Unfair, Unjust

BlackBeltBarrister has described TV Licensing's persistence in sending "final, final warnings" as being dishonest, misleading, unfair and unjust.

In the view of Daniel ShenSmith, a barrister of England and Wales, TV Licensing's repeated sabre-rattling could constitute harassment.

Speaking in his latest video, the learned Mr ShenSmith said: "If they (TV Licensing) continued to make these threats about coming to visit you, investigate you et cetera, and never actually followed through on it, that might well amount to harassment.

"There have been cases gone to court where lawyers have threatened individuals with court action - they've even on occasion said that they've taken steps for court action when in fact they didn't - and they've been found liable to harassment."
