I have been overwhelmed by the messages you are sending me about the unfairness of this fee. It is clear that so many of you feel the same way about having an enforced tax for services you might not even use. I am working on organizing these thoughts to present them to the right people.

In this day and age why should we pay a license when other countries don't have too . The BBC should use advertising to fund themselves.
It is time the BBC stopped taking off the poor ( I am 75 in June 2020 ) and giving to rich over payed people Like Lord Hall etc
They already us TV and Radio air time to advertise their own programmes so why not have paid advert
this is a tv tax yet its not a government body. the governments seem scared of the bbc. why should I waste £145 a year to a channel I never watch, no interest in the rubbish it shows. how can it be called freeview. make it earn its money by subscribing from people that want it.
BBC now "personalising" your experience. They cannot (and should not be allowed to be) everything to everyone - that's just plain greedy. Pull your horms in BBC and stop using the licence fee to pay outrageous salaries to hundreds of luvvies and management and let us TV watchers concentrate on Sky and ITV channels which are way better and pay for themselves!!!!!!!!!!!!!
U fair tax and undemocratic
Stop the licence fee.
