Anyone know if it is possible to get a refund on a TV license. Essentially we have ended up with two current valid ones for same household due to a clerical mixup. An Post are playing dumb andsaying no procedure.
I know it is possible in UK/NI to get a rebate but I am begining to believe that like some many things in our sweet Republic there is no rule so you get ripped off.

Don't buy next year's. If they take you to court then you have an alibi.
 
I got a declaration from AN Post this morning to say that don't have a TV.

Must I sign this?

The TV licence ran out last month & I don't think I'll bother with it for a few months.

I managed to pay my TV License twice in 2008 in the same post office. I got in touch with with TV Records office for my area and they sent me a refund by cheque. Records office for your area details here: http://www.anpost.ie/AnPost/GeneralTemplates/FAQ.aspx?NRMODE=Published&NRNODEGUID={24D68E6B-0B76-48A7-A11E-ADE6D4D02F8A}&NRORIGINALURL=%2fAnPost%2fFAQs%2fTV%2bLicence%2bFAQs.htm&NRCACHEHINT=Guest#Four

Thanks Megan I give that a whack. I have no problem with the obligation to pay and would to advocate being a sponge.
