    It's only around £10 a month you tight gits!

    And there aren't only two tv channels, don't forget about the digital channels and radio stations.

    You effectively pay for the other channels anyway by increased prices on goods, as advertising isn't free!

    What about the money that goes to Channel 4 and all the other TV and radio stations?

    Nat - The bloke my have transferred his licence to his new address. Thats what I did.

    Mart - If you get one for a year, you can claim the money back for what you don't use (its in 3 monthly periods tho so you'll either have to claim 3 or 6 months back).

    You get a refund if you move out before the end of the licence.

    Are you kidding??? The documentries are second to none, The comedy is class and even tho i dont really like drama they are on the ball for that too, and i listen to radio one all the time, Not to mention BBC 3 with gems like little britian, the extras and all the other great comedy.

    maybe if the bbc challenged the sky sports stranglehold i would be less hesitant to pay a fee.

    we've had a letter but i cant afford to stump up £120 so it can wait.

    no im not kidding, i think its a fucking rip off

    ok, you get the odd good show, like the office, but most of its utter wank- look at the list of terrible comedies we are inflicted with- carry and barrie, my hero, 2 pints of lager, all about me, the lenny henry show, mad about alice....the list is endless

    radio one is shite apart from the odd show- annie mac, ess mix

    the bbc is alright but worth the licence fee? is it bollocks
