# Yup, they're complete bastards
when I moved in last year I didnt have a TV for 3months and I was getting "Payment collection operatives will be calling at any time" letters in red.

Arseholes.

# ive lived six in london without a tv licence
their threat letters are cyclic, after a while you start seeing the same ones again. nothing to worry if you don't mind not answering the door to strangers

# that'll do it.

# I may do this.
I am getting peed right off with it.

Surely they are demanding monies with menaces?

# here's a tip:
just throw all their letters in the recycling and ignore them

don't feel threatened, cos if you haven't got a telly, you don't have anything to worry about

# When they turn up on your door and find you've no telly (or aerial I assume)
they'll no doubt just laugh and apologise

If you've done nothing wrong then you and your missus have nothing to be bothered by.

I wouldn't send the poster though. If you must reply repeatedly just keep it calm, concise and make sure you keep copies of each correspondance.

# It's not okay for them to keep harassing me.
I am not concerned, just pissed off that they think it is okay to carry on like this.

I want them to fuck off.

# I'd invite them round!
Seriously. Welcome them to come and get visual proof that you have no tv license.

or look in to the legal side of receiving unwanted mail and try and sue them in the small claims court.
