This boards.ie thread seems to cover this issue.cuchulainn said:Heres a new one.
all the students in dcu campus have to take out a licence for each apartment. but hotels only need one licence for the whole hotel. seems unfair.
No - as the thread above states the license can be transferred to a new address. Anyway, they don't have to get a license. They could always get rid of the TV.As it is my son and his pals have to buy one now for the whole year but they are leaving in June. the last 8 months of the licence are effectively waste.
As far as I know An Post post a "statutory declaration form" to the residents of each new dwelling. You are obliged to filll the declaration form and return it after set time.
This sounds absurd. Why do you have to declare that you have / don't have a TV? I'd take that as an infringement on my rights to privacy.

Am I being too paranoid here? Do other people (especially women in apartment complexes) have the same concern about verifying the identify of such allegedly 'official' visitors?
Are you sure that you never signed up to allowing them to do this? If not then that's out of order and you should complain to them in the first instance and, if necessary, [broken link removed] or the [broken link removed] perhaps.I paid for my TV license once with my Credit card and without authorisation they took the payment every year thereafter.
Not obvious at all. Could be purely coincidental. What evidence (other than circumstantial) do you have that they check with cable providers never mind video rental shops in general and in this case specifically?TV inspector had obviously double checked my address with them thus alerting NTL to the fact that I didn't have a subscription. I'm sure they cross reference with Xtravision etc too.
Are you sure about that? I thought that it was being mooted but no actual decision had been made?TV license people sent one of those declaration things and I binned it. Haven't heard from them since.
Have heard they are planning on bringing out licenses for laptops now!

I think I paid for the last license by CC over the phone so I presume that this does not mean that I have consented to them drawing payment off the card for subsequent years?
