A major change is going to be made which will help struggling families deal with their TV licence bill.
The BBC will offer people who can't afford the £159 fee a two-month break before the chasing of payments begins. At the moment the broadcaster receives 86 per cent of the TV licence fees it is due.
The company has partnered with debt charity StepChange to create the 'breathing space' policy which will help households that are in "real financial difficulty" get affairs in order, reports Birmingham Live.
