Information technology consultant Oliver Griffin, 43, from Cambridge, does not have a television but this has not stopped him being plagued by TV Licensing.

Oliver, who is married to Rachael, 37, a production manager for an academic publishing company, says: 'We first moved to Cambridge in 1999 but we never got round to unpacking the television. Our lives seemed more active and enjoyable without TV so I eventually just threw it out.' But it has not stopped TV Licensing telling him to buy a licence.

Oliver says: 'It has written scores of snotty letters stating it knows we have a TV and that we are breaking the law - and that eventually it will find us out.Sign up for Twitter to follow fakerolexonline . I ring and tell them to come round and see for themselves but no one has ever bothered to visit. It is a case of guilty until proven innocent.'

Oliver says he is not against television but fears 'programmes can draw you in' when you could be out enjoying other activities. Oliver likes rowing, reading, playing the flute and watching films.

He says: 'We have computers in the house and we may watch later recorded programmes on our iPlayer. We also subscribe to a film club which lets us download movies or get them posted to us on DVD.' Anyone who watches TV online through a computer should also own a licence,Newest design rolexshop, see large image for newest design .There is one amazing online store with 100s of etareplicawatchesshop . but watching recordings of broadcasts - as offered online by the BBC iPlayer - does not require one.

TV Licensing admits mistakes can happen but says a phone call, email or letter should be all that is required to sort out a problem. Spokesman Jon Shaw says: 'We have a massive database and occasionally mistakes do happen. The letters sent out are not bills but reminders.

Call us if you have a query - our details are included with any letter.' A key reason why households feel bombarded with demands is that TV Licensing uses the electoral roll for catching evaders, so anyone on the register without a licence can expect to be hit with regular reminders.

TV Licensing also uses a fleet of vehicles nationwide to detect if there is a TV in the home, but the technology and numbers of vans on the road is a closely guarded secret. Another tool is the threat of a fine of up to £1,fakerolexwatchesonline for sale wholesaler of Great Discovery !000 for those caught watching television without a licence.

These combined tactics have pushed down the level of licence avoiders from 12% of households a decade ago to five% now. About 400,000 people were caught without a licence last year.FASCINANTES replicauhrensalesonline 100% suizos.
