TV licence and being brought to court.

You just reminded me!! I've been out of my house with pyrite for 5 months and just back in. I haven't had a tv for the 5 months as it was in storage and didn't receive a renewal (a lot of post went missing) so totally forgot about tv licence. I just rang up and paid there now! Thanks
 
We all forget sometimes and also we make mistakes. Being prosecuted for non possession of a television licence is a pretty minor offence. It's no big deal other than having to go to court and face a judge (and the public). A "mea culpa" approach always ended in a small fine to those who had taken out a licence before court.

If you do take out a licence bring it with you to court.
 
I'm amazed that the original poster hasn't made comment on eligibility for a free licence, and other supports, if money has been tight.

I would have thought that offers a potential solution to a couple of problems, and might also help evidence circumstances, when they go to court.

See my earlier post (it's #12)
