Don't answer the door don't talk to them don't ever give them your name. You enter into a contract when you start giving them your details. If they get a warrant tell them that you don't give them permission to enter your home or just ignore the ****s. They are just salesman and have no power the pigs turn up to prevent a breach of the peace . Make sure you film it Ciaran

Yes, there are some loopholes, ie TV for DVD or some on-demand services, however, you are supposed to complete a No Licence Needed Claim otherwise they will continue to pursue you. As a last resort they can execute a search warrant.
Answer the door stark b*llock naked apart from a gimp mask. It didn't work for me but you might have more luck.
The Government has announced that it's changing the rules soon – from autumn 2016 (exact date yet to be confirmed) you will need a licence to use BBC iPlayer, even if you're only watching catch-up TV. This'll only apply to iPlayer, not other catch-up services like ITV Hub or All 4 (formerly 4oD). See the iPlayer catch-up to require TV licence MSE News story for more. At the moment though, the rules are: if you have a TV but only use it to watch DVDs or catch-up TV or for gaming, you don't need a licence. http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/utilities/tv-licence#govt
The license fee covers radio as well so if you're listening to the BBC it pays for that no point opening the door and saying you're blind and deaf.
It looks as though I'm heading to Malia, then. I do actually watch live TV, though, so a licence is needed.
Load of ****e. They buzzed our flat in Glasgow and I let them in. We couldn't get reception in the living room so only used the TV for Netflix, Playstation etc. They came in, checked it wasn't hooked up, and took us off the list using some futuristic handheld device.
