Are you joking? The TV License covers a particular home address. So technically, you can actually take your TV to the park each time you wanna watch any of the covered programmes and you owe no one.
How about homeless people? Can they watch live program on their smart phone while living on the street?

If you're working and earning a regular income, a TV licence is not a big deal, why give yourself unnecessary stress about what to watch when you can just pay for the damn thing and watch what you want on any device any day or time. It doesn't worth all the long conversations here. You can either pay £159 at once or you pay monthly. Additionally, you can use the license for other things like proof of address. And if you don't earn a regular income or you're not buoyant enough to pay for the license, why have a TV in the first place?

Finally, in these days of online entertainment and sports, there's no way you will not watch an online live event for which a TV licence is also needed. Get a TV licence and enjoy yourself to the fullest, simple.
Really? So because you don't earn enough to pay BBC for watching other channels you should not have TV?

Ok. What is not true about it?
Those sections of your post i highlighted

You don't pay tv licence because you watched BBC, you pay tv licence if you watch live program from any channel on any device not just on tv alone.

This got little or nothing to do with aerial connected to your tv

koonbey:
Having a TV doesn't mean you have to pay the TV license. You pay that if you watch the government channels like BBC and co. If you only use it for gaming, Netflix etc, there's no obligation to pay. Don't mind all those letters they send with threats - they are mass mailers they use to bully people who get scared easily into paying.

The issues will arise if you have a aerial or other broadcast-receiving equipment connected, but even that is not definite proof because technically, you can watch some channels on a catch-up basis without needing a license.

In summary, if you know you don't watch TV, make sure you don't have an aerial connected and if they come allow them in to see.


This is not true

I’m just curious to know this.

Has anyone ever had a visit by this TV license people despite these their numerous threats? And what was it like, if any?
Many years ago i was moving in to a new place with a friend, they visited just as we are moving things including TV and asked if we have TV licence we said no that we don't watch live tv them left, few months late we received the usual letter and my friend panicked and wanted us to pay(He was an illegal immigrants but i don't know at that time) , i knew very little about tv licence issue then as i was about 6months old student.

We started paying £10 a month even as i hardly watch tv let a lone live one because i work night and study day. Then i tuned in to a late night talkSports radio program one night and their was an hour long discussion on tv licence, i got educated and the rest is history.

So after getting 2 years stay with PSW, one has to continually apply for leave to remain until it totals 10 years stay before applying for ILR.

Is this accurate?
You have to switch to either tier 4 or tier 2.

You can not renew or extend PSW.

Thank you for this clarification, sadly Mr eagleeye seems not to get it as he's only looking to call out agents with no apparent reason other than the fact that they are agents.
These guys have been providing useful information here and suddenly they went MIA leaving certain questions without replies. Mr Frank and others rarely assist with answers to questions here and you will agree with me that if questions dont get answered then the thread wouldn't be as useful as expected.
We need people with experience other than applicants like us, you understand.
I disagree with you on that, since they stopped posting has the thread stopped growing? Do you know that people that started this thread more than 12yrs ago are not here anymore but we are in part 22 now.

People are far too lazy to read even a page back for info, they are quick and immediate answer.

johnstan:
I don't understand the reason for this, there are household names here, whenever justwise opens a new thread he quotes these names you guys are peddling as alleged fraudsters.

These guys literally started this thread that we are claiming to be part of and they have been helpful.

This is a public platform where anyone has a right to comment and there will always be scammers so long as the internet exists.

If you have a personal experience then share it by all means and be SPECIFIC with the intention to educate and inform others as against looking for who to paint black.

You don't need to hide to speak your truth, you don't need to open new accounts as well, be confident with saying your truth and let others decide who and what to believe, you also do not need to gather attention to speak your truth, simply speak and people will listen.

Lastly there are no kids here as to say we have people to protect against fraudsters, the minute you decide to DM people you don't know for help is the time you set yourself up to be defrauded or assisted.
I give people credit each time they contribute meaningful materials here. I don't take credit for other people's hard work.

That does not mean that i support their other businesses here infact i hate it when people trying to play smart here while pretending to help.

I know some of them are agents using this thread to promote their work, i got no problem with that as long as they don't advertise it here or use another ID or individuals to advertise here. If you contact them privately and they charge you then that got nothing to do with me.

@Justwise... You see say you supposed dey pay me like this. Lol
Don't bother quoting them when they post fake testimonies or thank agent that 'helped' them get the visa, i know those tricks here for years and i do remove such post as soon as i see them.

The IDs you mention above i'm aware of them and i have some sort of knowledge about their dealings here, some have been banned while some stopped posting as they used to.

Report their posts and leave the rest for me

Thanks for what you have been doing

University accommodation is available for those who know what they are doing but people don't usually go for university accommodation because its more expensive and you will asked to pay for at least a semester which is not good for those with untouchable loan

After going through student thread I cannot blame the UK for paid mail at all.... the guideline is 15 working day turn around. Just read some of the comments. Even after 2 days some people are doing paid email and chasing left and right . . ..

No realistic expectation that they should give the visa officer time to process application pr do checks . No consideration that they are not the only applicants ooo. That the visa officer is working on others so there should give some allowance. From the comments you get the sense of once they apply I want answer now now now now... they should put paid email, even double the amount self ...lol .. because even with it, I smh at the chasing so its not even deterring people
That is exactly the problem,i will not be surprised if the cost of paid email goes up.

BorisJohnson:
You know why?
Because the UK (unlike Belgium and others) do not insist on ‘Blocked Accounts’ to show evidence of funds.

The folks who ignite paid emails after 2 days wants the visa to come out quick quick so that they can return the borrowed money to the owners.


Fact!!!!!!

people that design schemes to rip others are called criminals as in 419
and you have identified 2 schemes .paid and paid calls and IHS. the others issuing over 200,000 visa is there the houses to accommodate this person's and the primary school and teachers /student ration to their dependants ?
You are 100% wrong, they did not lie to you about anything, like i said before the cost of studying in the UK is open to everyone to read and make personal decisions.

You don't have to send paid email and it will not affect the outcome of your visa application.

Oyinbos are not criminals , if you found yourself in this situation then the only person to blame is yourself.

The cost of studying in the UK is in the open, nothing hidden in small print, it was your decision choose the UK.

I have issues with paid email though i can understand why it was introduced.

Yes IHS is a rip off again this is not hidden.

Will i come to the UK to study now? Never, unless i have scholarship

How much will be be charge for IHS ?
Will i apply for Tier 4 visa application or a standard visitor visa since my pre masters isn't upto 6 months it is just for 3 months and masters begins sept 2023 of same year

Hello Ancestors on this forum.I hail you all Please I want to ask a question and it is an observation.I noticed that anytime a colleague of mine help with transportation he always wants to drop me at my doorstep.Dont get me wrong as I don't have any issues with that but recently myself and him travelled to a far distance to go and work and on our return I felt for him as we have been driving for almost two hours,so I asked him to drop me in a near by road that I can easily access my house so he too can go home to his family and rest but he still insisted on taking me to my doorstep.So this arouse my curiosity if it is wrong to drop people on the road in the UK or any other consideration for this culture shock.
Pls what do you think?
This is not uncommon...God forbid if he drops you far from your house and anything happens to you he is the last person to see you and will have a lot of explanation to do

I had earlier posted this in the uk student thread, but decided to post it here if one know of a similar experience. I have a peculiar case with regards to a friend who was jailed in the canada and deported to Nigeria some 14 years ago. He has since remodeled himself and become a model citizen, raising a family. He wants to apply for a masters in the uk and intends to give full disclosure when applying for his Visa. What are his chances of getting his visa approved? Anyone know of a similar situation and gotten approval?

When you made that fraudulent post couple of months ago you claimed that you are looking for the dependant for yourself but here you are claiming that it was for someone else.

Fraudsters like you makes it difficult for genuine Nigerians to get a visa , so anytime i see individual like you trying to use travel section for fraud i don't find it funny.
