New Which survey finds most people would like them banned, strange how the BBC put this report up as i have known a couple of people who have changed their number to stop the BBC agents from calling them about a licence.
Can anyone tell me another business that would get away with sending you a threatening letter every month if you don't buy their product or let them search your house at least a couple of times to prove you don't.
The BBC subcontracts the collection and enforcement of tv licences. The latest figures for 2008/9 show the evasion rate was 5.3% so that justifies the methods they use to confirm folk are complying

I run a business and that's how I operate, so there's one example.
// Ludwig I dont understand what business are you in where you send threatening letters to people who dont buy your product //
I'm a double glazing salesman. I throw bricks through peoples windows with my business card attached to them, and a note saying 'Ring this number for a friendly service - if you know what's good for you'.
Talking about POT KETTLE BLACK, that would be somebody who does not want BBC services but happily surfs the BBC website and posts links. A service paid for by the rest of us through the licence fee.
