Rejected petition Allow the public the choice not to have services covered by the TV licence fee.
The BBC licence fee (as was) has been around for many years without much been done about their astronomical fees for what seems to be a poor repeated service.
The public should have the right NOT to receive these services if they do NOT want them. Making an informed choice then been able to cancel

The public should have the right NOT to receive these services if they do NOT want them.
Making an informed choice then been able to cancel if they so wish. Then not have to pay the licence fee.
Just like we do with TV providers such as SKY & VIRGIN they turn our service off when we don't pay.
