TV Licence to kill (time)
I renewed my TV licence online last night, and was pleasantly surprised to discover the option to receive my new licence via email. That must surely qualify for a discount, I thought to myself, having saved the TV Licensing people the postage and printing costs, only to have my dreams of a 50p discount crushed when arriving at the payment screen.
And just to prove TV Licensing really haven’t got a handle on this interweb thingy, I got the following message after I’d stumped up my £139.50:
“Once your transaction has been processed and accepted a new TV Licence will be emailed to you within 3 working days”
I’ve ordered TVs online that have arrived faster than that.

I hardly ever watch BBC and when I do it is just the news on Sky,not opposed to BBC getting Money if it was a premium package or a % of the monthly fee for sky.TV licence should be scrapped certainly with digital coming in is a good time to stop it.If BBC made good programmes etc people would want to watch and pay for it. I noticed several years back they started advertising on BBC for their DVD’s magazines etc.One time I timed one of those and it was 5 minutes which is as bad or worse than ITV.
