[QUOTE="Mickha, post: 375617, member: 187442"] I have been sending emails for over 6 months, to the relevant department: Department for Culture, Media & Sport 2-4 Cockspur Street London SW1Y 5DH Asking for clarification, I came up with this example: [FONT=Arial]If I get rid of the following appliances:[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]1. All televisions, with built in tuners.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]2. All DVD recorders and VCR’s with tuners.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]3. Digital satellite receiver, Echostar 3600, receives digital and analogue signals, used for viewing foreign satellite channels.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]4. Nokia freeview box, terrestrial digital tuner.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial] [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]But retain the following appliances.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]1. Self built computer, contains no hardware tuners for digital or analogue, terrestrial or satellite reception, but is used with a broadband connection.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]2. DVD player, without a tuner.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]3. TFT monitor/television without a tuner.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial]4. Various radios, including digital.[/FONT] [FONT=Arial] [/FONT] [FONT=Arial]Could I then legally stop paying for a Television License?[/FONT] [FONT=Arial][/FONT] [FONT=Arial]But they wont answer the question just keep directing me to their web site, which doesn't clarify the situation, probably because of the fact that you can now watch TV over the internet, and they haven't come up with a policy on this, or more likely they don't like losing any form of tax:) [/FONT] [FONT=Arial][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
