You need it to watch any electronic content, not just for live broadcasts on the BBC. Poor losers and le epic revolutionaries try to evade it, most people however do not.
Hunter Foster
Its a license representing the competence to operate a television in the united kingdom.
You need to take a test when you are 16 and if you pass you get to own and use a tv without an adult.
(I failed my test two times because the examiner was a fucker said I used to the remote in an illegal manner)
Luke Russell
I think they pay it instead of having commercials on the tv
Bentley Adams
Seriously? Not even the BBC or any British TV shows but any kind of online media?
Gavin Adams
Yes, but it's pretty good so it's worth every quid.
Parker Morales
Bingo. Ad' free
Gabriel Williams
Dunno if you guys know. The license is 3 times lower if you have black and white tv.
The fucking regulation is literally written like it's 1960's and they're enforcing it more and more because ???
Adam Walker
>Bongs are so cucked their black ops need a license
Nicholas Evans
When do you get up to flip burgers then?
John Gomez
>Wtf is a tv license?
British tyranny. It's why the Founding Fathers rebelled against the British.
Gabriel Lewis
You really need a license to watch a TV show on the internet? I thought they would just apologize if they broke your door down only to discover you don’t even have a TV.
Easton Rodriguez
Wait what, using a remote in a illegal manner?
Tyler Murphy
Really. How do they get a beer outa the fridge and take a leak with no commercials? No wonder Bongs are so constipated.
Easton Jones
OK. This HAS to be a joke.
Juan Campbell
>it's pretty good
Yea I fucking love paying for leftist propaganda to slander me
Joshua Myers
Explain how one uses a remote in an illegal manner.
Benjamin Sullivan
John Martin
It's a tax they pay to watch TV
Blake Moore
It's not. The test is brutal. The theory test is easy, but the practical is just retarded. You can fail for the slightest thing, like I plugged a Freeview box into the second HDMI input instead of the first and failed.
Colton Robinson
i have a camera set outside my front door for when the license man comes.
once ive confirmed its him, i lock myself in the bathroom, devoid of any windows, until enough time has passed for him to give up.
im trying to figure out a way to deploy some sort of deterrent for when he comes.
Levi Gomez
>be britbong
>wake up
>want eggs and toast for breakfast
>rats, my egg license is expired
>welp, no eggs for me today go to fridge for butter for my toast
>open a drawer for a butter knife
>the entire wall of my living room explodes, leaving a Van sized hole
>10 uk police jump through the hole like the kool-aid man, handcuff me and beat me senseless for not binning that knife
Ryan Jackson
I hear that the Russians have some pretty nice nerve agents
John Walker
Rock street season 3?
Dominic Taylor
>egg license
Zachary Jenkins
you're an idiot and not even a bong
Jaxson Anderson
Germans have the exact same shit. Its called GEZ
Daniel Moore
A way for the British to tax their citizens even more in order to pay for the royal family and give sand niggers welfare.

It's actually true. You need a licence to demonstrate competency in the safe operation of a television set.
The test covers things like not putting liquids like a cup of tea on top of the set, correct stowage of electrical cables (to prevent tripping), static discharge, age restrictions on certain broadcast shows, movies etc, what is a safe distance from the screen to avoid eyestrain, volume levels, and many more health and safety matters.
I think it's quite sensible to enforce such a law in order to make sure people enjoy a safe viewing experience.
Noah Ward
TV licence inspector called to my door and asked me to show my licence. I said I don't need one I haven't got a TV. He said, but you have a satellite dish on the roof. I said yes, I have milk in the fridge too but that doesn't mean I have a fucking cow in the kitchen. I slammed the door shut on his confused face.
Christopher Gonzalez
Do they have a toilet paper license?
Operating an ENTIRE roll of toilet paper could be lethal!
Cooper Brown
It's supposed to mean that every licence payer is a shareholder in the BBC and thus has a say in how it's run.
In reality they just concocted some bullshit "Inform, Educate and Entertain" charter and just fill up their schedule with cookery and property programs with a sprinkling of celebrities making tits of themselves dancing or buying antiques etc.
Carter Jones
This sounds bad when you write it all out but you should mention that the assessors are so lenient that it's basically impossible to fail.
When I went to the assessment centre their training TV was broken so the guy just made me go through the liquid safety and cable management portions and then approved my license application there and then.
I've never heard of anyone actually failing the assessment.
Colton Kelly
Where the fuck are you getting assessed lad?
Here in Leicester the practical assessors don't give the slightest shit.
Connor Jenkins
A license to crossdress.
Henry Bailey

Hunter Lopez
Don't know, don't care, don't pay
Jordan Scott
Ahhh brings me back. They failed me the first time for crossing the TV antennas.
Jaxon Nelson
Holy fuck, why doesn't that country go full blown William Wallace?
Dylan James
Tell them you dont watch TV. Send Notice of Removal Of Implied Right Of Access and never hear from them again.
James Johnson
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
this is really a thing. I thought the TV license bullshit was a meme.
Proud to be an American this day.
William Myers
Did you shove the remote down someones throat?
Wyatt Ross
It’s a voluntary charitable donation disguised as a tax. I have never paid for one and nor do I plan on doing so.
Justin Gray
No, you have to be able to say what each button does without pressing it. If you press the wrong button this is what they mean by "illegal manner" its not a crime but it stops you from getting a license and they take your TV away :(
Mason Price
Never remove IROA because that gives the bastards a reason to get the police involved to get their commission. Just open the door, say nothing and then close it in their face.
Isaiah Watson
>americans will never have the experience the TV exam
It's a rite of passage here. You guys are missing out.
Jonathan Bennett
Weak, why don't they just charge a tax when you purchase a television? Or do you have to renew it annually?
The whole television license sounds looney.
Robert Cox
It's a giant pain in the arse and all because I wanted to watch the football on my own telly.
Jayden Wood
Fuck, what other nonsense laws do you have like this?
I can't think of a single law that even approaches this in the US.
Jason Mitchell
you also have to pay it if you're blind and don't own a tv
Jack Cruz
Bong, Brit Bong
License to TV
Carson Thomas
Its how the BBC funds all its race mixing propaganda.
Luke Morgan
more embarrassing than penis inspection day
Charles Brown
that is a lie
only if you watch or record live broadcast
and cause i dont watch tv but use my tv as a monitor i dont have to pay shit
Jayden Gonzalez
Ah, that reminds me, I'm due for my annual.
Better shave up, a tree looks bigger in a field.
William Reed
You guys are missing the point. TV is for controlling the population. They get to pacify and propagandize you while making you pay for it.
Aiden Torres
Year its about £140 per year. I never pay it tho lol
Austin Garcia
If you own a TV, you have to pay 390 USD every 6 month to the "national" broadcaster..and that is just for owning a TV.
Luis Gonzalez
accurate
Ryder Wilson
I bet you still get strongly worded letters demanding you inform the tv license company you're not watching live television and if you don't reply you end up "under investigation", at least that's what happened to me.
If there was some general prosperity/disregard for individual liberty ratio ranking UK would top the lists. There's a general contempt for the common man coming from all your institutions which must be remnants of victorian era when they were established. I guess there are positive things about having your country wiped off the map and needing to rebuild everything after all.
Jason Bell
>competence to operate a television
Zachary Flores
Fuck. Now I know you are joking. “To have a safe viewing experience.” ROTFLMAO. That was a killer line.
Samuel Sanders
Underrated
Luke Flores
The only way a Jew can get paid anymore in the UK in the Industry
Gabriel Morgan
Oi! You need a license to keep your daughter from being groomed by Asians, mate!
Alexander White
This is a good site detailing how pathetic the tv license people are. Fucking paper tiger if ever there was one
Brayden James
wow, is this some kind of monty python sketch?
Camden Harris
Holy fuck I literally crying lad
Landon Garcia
Is there a separate test for external antenna setup, operation & safety? I feel like this is an area of greater concern. I once installed an antenna in my attic and in the process I fell through the ceiling. I actually, ironically enough, landed on my television. I had glass fragments embedded all over my body including my scrotum, which is quite painful I can assure you. To make matters worse I tripped over a cord as I was trying to get to a phone to call EMS. As I was being taken to the hospital, unbeknownst to me, an electrical fire was consuming my house. Unfortunately I did not have homeowners insurance. I wish they was a testing program for buying a house so many of these mistakes could have been avoided. At least there is a free wifi signal I can pick up from a nearby McDonald's. I live a humble life under this overpass, but people are quite generous when I beg for money as they feel sorry for my poor physical state. You bongs are so lucky to live in a nanny state that cares enough to look after you. وداعا
Jaxson Rogers
Which is bullshit because that's how you get a signal when you're nowhere in range of an analogue signal.

Wow really got my noggin joggin.
Evan Lopez
Oi! You cheeky wanker don't get me started on the kitchen cutlery licencing regulations.
Grayson Powell
Exam was going fine until they asked me how I would demonstrate changing the Brightness. I apparently pointed the infrared so it crossed paths with my lower body and the examiner's clip board "exposing him to an intolerable amount of light pollution".
Liam Davis
Doesnt the guy who protected Saville at the BBC run the New York Times now?
Asher Collins
Nah its all true, i only passed and got my licence last year. Before I would watch tv at the tv shop.
Daniel Sanders
YOU DON"T HUV A TEE VEE LOICENCE?!
Cameron Mitchell
Lmfao imagine paying money for the opportunity to vision the tele
Evan Cooper
Has anyone decided to secretly bug an across the street's neighbor with a microphone and watch HIS tele with binoculars?
Cameron Perry
My old gran just had hers revoked. She went from a "Reasonable" pass last year to a barely "Satisfactory" in January. It's a sad situation but I guess they're right when they say you know it's time to go when you can't adjust the volume on ITV4 and are listening to The Morning Crumpet on a whopping 52 volumes.
Jeremiah Morris
You have a license for a car, why can't tv's be regulated the same way?!
Nathaniel Ramirez
i don't know if i'm being memed or not

>BBC providing BLACKED porn
If anything that would make more brits want to pay the tv licence if this is guaranteed
Levi Jackson
The best bit is, its half price if you're blind and deaf
Xavier Williams
I have no idea if this is satire.
Wtf is wrong with bongs?

John Campbell
We dont shit that much in OUR country
Carter Williams
My mate Daz got sectioned because he thought it would be funny to take a load of coke and watch the Graham Norton show on Volume 100.
Jose Thomas
degenerate filth
Oliver Hall
It's a license you buy if you have a TV or you use any of the channels online to watch programs from the main channels here in the UK. It costs roughly $4,000USD a year.
Mason Evans
Four thousand us dollars!?
My god man, how big is your tv?
Anthony Nelson
Blind people get it half price.
But only if they watch it with the sound down
Jayden Nelson
It is a method of monetizing propaganda.
Andrew Rivera
I recently had to downgrade from my 52 inch 4k screen because I couldn't afford my TV license mortgage, so now I have pic related and I can easily afford the roughly £2,800 with simple monthly payments.
Asher Morgan
I passed on my first try with 2 cautions
Christopher James
At least the graffiti on the bottom is based.
