Yeah i would have thought so as the signal is being broadcast at that time.+1 Channels are definitely regarded as live tv.

If you don't watch live TV or use iplayer then you don't need a license.Got another "we're coming to visit you" letter today. They can visit me if they want, I answer the door to no cunts.
I don't remember the last time I watched The BBC. I have Virgin and occasionally watch that (only have virgin for the broadband tbh) I very rarely watch the telly. I'm genuinely unsure if I actually need a license.

If you have VM tv box and is attatched to the feed then yes you need a license as your in receipt of the signal.
Is that true?
What if I have Sky connected to my TV but only use it to watch shows On Demand or via Box Sets?
As far as I’m aware, if they can’t prove I’m watching or recording live TV or using iPlayer, then they can’t prove I need a licence.
And I won’t be letting the cunts in!
Good on you cancelling.Is that true?

As to the best of my knowledge if your in receipt of a live signal your eligible to pay for a license.
So for an example and yes i know its an out dated one is
If you had an old black n white license but had a video. Then you had to pay for a colour license as the video recorded from the aerial and not your tv so your video received the signal which would be a colour signal.
Now in your case if you have a device hooked up which receives the live signal or capable of receiving it then i guess you would need to pay.
Now dont take my word m8. Call them up, they will advise you of the correct position here without having to give details and tbh they have always been very honest and straight when i have called to ask questions regarding a tv license.
I agree m8 but people might want to be on the right side of the fence with this stuff.No point calling them up, just give them nothing, simple.

Things have changed considerably with technology the Internet a d smart devices etc. So best advice to anyone is to call and ask. There is a lot of people have the wrong information a d pass it on as gospel and i could include myself here as i am no expert but only speak from my own dealings with them.
Brilliant, i not had a license for over 10 or so years.I've got Sky and watch live tv, don't watch BBC nor the I player haven't paid my license for 2 years, the goons from the enforcement team can kiss my hairy ass.

But people need to realise its not just the bbc here. Just because you dnt watch bbc you dnt need a license. This is for all public service broadcasters not just the horrible bbc.
If you watch any live tv even on your phone bbc or not they state you still need one.

I prefer men.

Aye, not for me.
Yes.Are they allowed to look through windows to gather evidence ?
My front doors next to my living room window and the tv easily seen

Might just rake in enough for a black and white license.
How the f*** is that promoting illegal activity? You know it's not illegal to not have a TV licence right?
Oi! You lot!
Just to add to this thread. I meant to do so earlier but it totally slipped my mind.
A lot of people who are paying for their TV license are actually paying towards next year's license at the same time. After we cancelled my wife realised this a couple of weeks later so I got her to call up and, yep, we'd paid £90 OVER what we should've paid and we're to fill in a form and send it away to have the money refunded to us.
They won't tell you that when you cancel so please ask. It's a handy wee bung from people who have been ripping us off for years to throw money at a bunch of Rangers-hating bastards.
How does this actually work though. Do you still watch telly as normal?
Rather, they are expecting people to respect and obey the law.Just don't pay it, ignore their letters and if anybody comes to your door tell them to piss off, they have absolutely no power of entry. They play on people's ignorance of the law!
