Did you know that when you reach 74 you get your licence for half price and when you are 75 it is free.

Yes

What's the point of the half price year?

In some circumstances, you may qualify for a concessionary licence. For example, if you are over 74, you can apply for a Short Term Licence, which will cover you until the month you turn 75, at this point you become entitled to a free Over 75 Licence. If you are blind, you can apply for a Blind Concessionary Licence at 50% of the full licence fee. And if you live in residential care, you may qualify for a licence at £5 per year.

All becomes clear!

Blind people shouldn't pay anything.

I think it should be scrapped.

Yes that one again. Someone starts a thread about the TV licence so I say what I think of it. It's how a conversation works.

How about we have a meter on our tv's and only pay for what we watch?

goldencup · « **Reply #11 on:** February 10, 2007, 01:13:03 pm »

How about we all say we never watch BBC anyway?

You just know you'd run out of coins as soon as something good came on.
