  2. How do you do it?????

    Thanks, that's making more sense then. I was beginning to think long covid was affecting my memory more than I thought as numerous users seemed to be referring to comments I allegedly made but have no recollection of. :unsure:
  3. How do you do it?????

    Are there two @Private users? This comment & the follow on ones do not seem to be referring to this @Private. I'm confused.
  4. ADAC Again!

    I am basing my assumption on this statement: "Therefore we will change your ADAC Plus membership (and possibly existing partnerships of partners / children) from 01.06.21 to a membership without plus benefits.". The translation seems clear to me that I will receive Plus membership up until...
  5. ADAC Again!

    My renewal is due in June 2020, therefore I have not had to renew yet. The letter I received states my "plus benefits" will expire after that renewal has elapsed (June 2021). I will be renewing for a number of reasons: 1. The cover for the price can't be matched elsewhere. 2. The cover is valid...
  6. ADAC Again!

    You are welcome. I agree with your understanding of the letter. It is a shame to lose the full service as it was the most comprehensive offering available for the price. It is also a very fair notice period as you stated. I am sure Chris will be adding some comments on this situation as he has...

  8. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    That's surprising. Mine are addressed to "The Legal Occupier". They are cute in their childish attempts to frighten. I get a 'cut out & keep section' for me to use when they come to visit, complete with little scissors pictograph. The letters do specifically state "It is illegal to watch or...

    Yes. Including these: 0_0 (o)|(o) ( o )( o ) <*_*> (-_-) <*_*>
  10. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    I think the BBC must use the same PR firm as Prince Andrew: "We have a range of detection tools at our disposal in our vans. Some aspects of the equipment have been developed in such secrecy that engineers working on specific detection methods work in isolation - so not even they know how the...
  11. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    The key points to remember are: You do not need to have a TV licence to watch a TV; it is what you are viewing on it that may require a licence. Just stick to the billions of hours of content that does not require a licence to watch. If you do not engage with the "visiting officers" they will...
  12. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    Thank you. I stand corrected. "Your home TV Licence will usually cover you to watch live TV on any channel and BBC programmes on iPlayer on any device away from home. However, if you’re away from home and plug one of these devices into the mains and use it to watch or record live TV programmes...
  13. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    The vans exist but their ability to detect people watching TV was mostly propaganda & myth. The radiation signal given off was so tiny as to be pointless in trying to detect so they resorted to using high powered directional microphones (like spies use(d)). This allowed them to listen in to the...
  14. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    Technically correct but in practice irrelevant. Tiny radiation detection area therefore they have to be very, very close. Never used in court as evidence to date; probably because it would be inadmissible as evidence.
  15. BEWARE TV DETECTOR VAN

    There is nothing their van can detect except volume sound. The naming of the wireless is just another ploy to frighten people. As others have said, if you have a home licence you are covered but with the caveat that nobody can be at home watching a live broadcast at the same time as you! If...
  16. About Time.

    We may call but will they come? I called them a few months ago. It was a ‘live’ situation & I was told they would attend as soon as possible. I called them back about 45 minutes later to tell them not to rush as the incident was over, but I had photographic evidence for them. They provided an...

  18. About Time.

    The reason I refused to provide my details is because the alternative solution, as you rightly infer, was to appear in court to fight my case; that would entail a 400 mile round trip. I was refusing to provide my details to prevent the officer filling in the paperwork & walking away before I had...
  19. About Time.

    Very true. I was threatened with having my vehicle seized as I had the temerity to accept arrest (an offer the police officer gave me) rather than providing my details when I was falsely accused of using my mobile phone whilst driving. My vehicle was 100% legal & my partner was insured to drive...
  20. Route tracker

    I assume you are referring to a PND as opposed to satellite navigation.
