You don't need a licence for a TV though

just for TV channels

like... an actual screen doesn't need a licence lol

you need it for a tv

if you own a tv set on your premises you have to pay it

What

However i believe quid is right and it effects all tvs

Am I being pranked here or something

so I could just buy a cheap one

I think it's probably different in Ireland

At least over here you only need one if you want to watch live tv

Nah I double checked because I remember heairng it before and am no longer sure

Hmm ?

Well why would a govt change laws to get more money?

Yeah like if I went and bought a flat screen TV today to play Xbox on... I don't need a licence for that

Stunting on us I see

Every household, business or institution in Ireland with a television or equipment capable of receiving a television signal (using an aerial, satellite dish, cable or other means) must have a television licence.

So you dont need it if the flat has a licence

like the landlord

Yeah, makes sense

this is dumb

I was sure it was just for a household

I mean, doesn't make sense that it's for tvs in general
