BBC Under Fire For Spending £11m A Year On TV Licence Fee Letters!

The BBC has come under fire for spending over £11 million of taxpayers' money a year on printing and sending TV licence letters to households. The corporation revealed that it had sent around 55 million letters to unlicensed properties each year, equivalent to more than two letters a year for each household in Britain, in response to a Freedom of Information request by the Huffington Post UK. 

The BBC receives most of its income, at around £3.7 billion!, from people paying the £145.50 annual TV licence fee in order to watch telievision live. The corporation said it sent reminders to unlicensed properties and sent paper copies of TV Licences as part of its "statutory duty" to ensure households have properly licensed televisions.
