Stop CAPITA sending harrassing letters to people who don't require a licence, and wasting licence-payer's money on those cruel demand letters
The TVL "enforcement" campaign is deliberately designed to levy distress without there being proper grounds to believe a licence is required at a particular address before sending nasty letters scaring people into thinking there is an ongoing court action against them.
Capita is a private company and they are running the TV Licensing "service" in the same way as a kneecap-finance payday loan lender. It's criminal.
They are wasting money on these letters.
The money used to send the evil correspondence would better be spent on TV programming instead.
If the letters were more appropriate, perhaps more people who require a licence would actually buy one, because I suppose there are a good many people who are so offended by the nature of the demand notices that they choose to completely disregard it, as any right-thinking person would, given the tone and content of the notices.
You can't sign this petition because it is now closed. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
