My good god.
 
So I just got a call from a debt collection agency.

Because I am...wait for it... £2.40 behind with my TV license. PMSL. Two whole ****ing pounds and they pass it on to a debt collection place, I've actually never heard of anything so pathetic in my life :D

lmao, that's crazy

Vicky. 18-04-2011 11:16 AM

I know. I actually cracked up on the phone :laugh2:

I started being a bit sarcastic too, coz I found it so ridiculous. I said I couldnt afford to pay and could they set up a payment plan for me so I could pay it in installments :D

Niamh. 18-04-2011 11:18 AM

ahahahaha, what did they say to that?

It all adds up though

He took me seriously and said no, the amount will need to be paid in full ASAP. :joker:

I paid a tenner about 20 mins ago. Silly people.

I need to pay ours as well, but like that I don't even have the Irish channels so it really pisses me off paying it

The thing is, its apprently to keep BBc advert free.

But its still full of adverts. Yeah not advertising products, but about 4/5 adverts on advertising other programs inbetween things

Just another way to get money from people I think. I dont mind usually, its only a fiver a week or so, but when you get calls like this its well annoying :laugh:

Not having ads in the middle of programs is good though. We pay a TV licence and they still have ads on in the middle of programs:bored: Not that I can even watch the Irish channels anyway!

It would be good, if there was actually decent stuff on those channels. As it happens they are full of ****e

Yeah, I only really watch Eastenders on BBC, it's fairly crap compared to the ITVs and Channel 4

FFS I bet it cost them more to pass it on to the debt collection agency :laugh:

Niall 18-04-2011 01:07 PM
