I emailed what I would call a rant but also wanted to find out certain answers to the type of questions i proposed to why i need a TV license.
As many of you know, myself and a few others are off to Swindon to live as of Friday. Moving in and sorting bills is new to me and we questioned would we need a TV license if we only wanted to use it for playing games or DVDs but not to receive any signal for normal television.
I then went on the main site and found that pretty much anything you do we a television will mean that you need a license. Very angry at this i just couldn't stop my fingers from typing and as promised to someone, i have decided to share with you all my specialty ranting.
To whoever it may concern.
My name is Daniel Walsh and i am moving into a new flat in Swindon to obviously live and work towards a dream that happens to be based in Swindon. This is my first time of doing things for myself and at the tender age of 23 i guess its about time but hey ho.
Sorting out all this bills as you do got us questioning if we needed a television license. Now if i was to watch television plugging in a cable to receive signal i would expect that the license would need to be in hand however since we are not going to be living as such in the flat and more just sleeping and getting up in the mornings made us think to cut a bill we wouldn't watch television there for didn't need a license. We did however want the TV if ever we decided to watch a DVD, VHS tape or maybe play the occasional computer game.
I then read "the why you need a license" and quite frankly was disgusted at what i was reading. I would be charged so that i could watch my DVDs or play my games when i pay electricity to do that and purchased the items deeming them to be my possessions. But i need to pay a yearly subscription to say yes i can use this!!! This is utter turd crap to be honest, to try and save money in a society of today that can barely survive on the wages given out and the expenses of general living made me think why the hell i am paying for this.
I would understand if it was to fund the likes of the BBC and placing terrestrial television to me however as i stated i personally do not want to waste my life watching the likes of todays programs.
Now i think that if i place a television in my flat, you and your weasels would be around in an instant looking to take more brass, well no way hosey! Next thing you know I will have to pay a bed licence, yes a frickin bed license. Excuse me sir, you have to pay a yearly fee if you want to sleep on the mattress of yours. Erm exsqueeze me, earth to the world!!!!
I cant understand why i would be paying for this, car insurance is paid so that if i crash, i will compensate for the other person. Should i watch for any speeding televisions that might come crashing through my door!
I need to speak with the big cheese, the architect of the matrix, megatron, i don't frickin care. Fact is you are ripping me off as i would like to wipe the crap off my ass and post it in a letter and send it to you and call it a turd envelope complete with the nuts that i consumed from a Dairy milk nut bar.
Yours faithfully
Daniel Walsh
