Many people refuse to pay for a TV licence, with some of the general public becoming increasingly disillusioned with the BBC.
The TV licence is a bill that most households in the UK pay on a monthly or yearly basis. It is the BBC’s main source of funding, providing around £3.7 billion of its £5 billion annual income, although thousands are now voting with their feet and refusing to fork out for one.
You need one if you watch live TV – as in live when broadcast – or use the BBC’s iPlayer. It costs £159 per year and is expected to be kept at its current rate until April 2024, reports the Liverpool Echo.
