90% Of TV Licence Inspectors No Longer Paying TV Licence
RTÉ’S WOES continue after it was discovered 90% of TV licence inspectors, employed by An Post, are avoiding paying the fee they are tasked with enforcing as they go door to door, knocking on the doors of the public.
“I stand by the decision, I’d be outside someone’s house, staring in the window to see if they have a TV and valid licence and Jesus, the absolute drivel that does be on. No way am I paying for that shite at home,” reasoned licence-less TV licence inspector Cormac O’Connor.
Evasive behaviour by some licence fee inspectors when caught at home by a fellow inspector has included faking a heart attack, claiming they don’t have a TV while the loud sound of the Coronation Street theme song can be heard and putting on an Australian accent and claiming the inspector had fallen through a portal to the other side of the world.
“It’s created a weird scenario whereby every time a TV licence inspector was caught out by a colleague at home, they would make sure to knock on that’s colleague’s door the next day, it had a domino effect, on the one hand it’s been great for fine collection but it can’t go on,” explained one of what is believed to be 12 licence fee inspectors who has actually paid the annual charge.
Elsewhere, a man jailed for operating a ‘dodgy box’ service has been freed from prison after a gathering of citizens commandeered a wrecking ball and smashed a hole in the wall of the prison.
