good on that man, I really do think the BBC expects that they can get money off everyone... I don't mind paying it as I do use their online and radio facilities but I do use little of their television (cause its mostly s**t). I just don't think it is right that they expect everyone to pay for it.

Clive:
Every month or so  our local newspaper prints a list people who have been fined for not paying their TV license.  Name, address and what they have had to pay.  I wouldn't like to take a chance on not paying! 

sam:
but I guess the difference is, he is not using it...

mistybear:
We have free to air channels here, four networks plus SBS (special broadcast service, or commonly known as the "wog channel") and before someone says that I'm racist.
 
--- Quote ---The Queensland senator, who admitted enjoying Wogs out of Work-style comedy, said, "There is nothing more unself-conscious and confident than the capacity to laugh at ourselves." He said Australians were remarkably comfortable about race compared with other countries. He doubted "the use of the word 'wog' in any way would be regarded as offensive or racist".
--- End quote ---

Aussie wogs are a good mob.

I can't get SBS as the signal is very weak up here, but I do have a Satellite subscription which includes SBS, they have some brilliant documentaries.

I don't watch much free to air television and I'd be seriously annoyed if I had to pay for it. So I can sort of understand not wanting to pay for something that is rubbish and you don't watch.
Is it that the BBC just expect people to pay anyway, because everyone now days has a TV?
