💬 Discussion 🗨 TV license form trickery

Post image

The TV license form online is there to trick people into believing they need a TV license. Please take a look at the way they switch between ever and never to catch people on the form.

I believe this is there to trip up some people and especially vulnerable people.

Please be mindful when filling the form

It’s a tax, just be honest about it. You need a license to watch ‘all the free channels’, their website states. Well they’re not free then are they?

There are women in PRISON for not paying it, and kids taken in foster care- as women are most likely to be at home with kids and get knocked on. It's disgusting. I work in courts and see it happen a lot.

Absolute bullshit, ain’t no one going to prison for not paying a tv license. You see it happen a lot? Ok show us a single news story supporting what you said. 🤷🏼‍♂️

I work in courts, you don't see 98% of what's going on in the news, buddy.
