No stickies here?

I read quite a few of the posts regarding these issues, and some seem to struggle to get practice advice.

That staff and some members are very knowledgeable is clear, but sometimes the total (and understandable) lack of background knowledge on the issues seems to leave some requesters of help struggling to understand what may be for the best it seems to me.

 

Perhaps a few stickies heading this forum from the knowledgeable would be of benefit?

 

Basic rights of people and TVL

What to expect on a visit or after receiving something more than their standard 'veiled threat/insite fear in the innocent' letters

 

Options for pro-active action and any pitfalls

eg removal of implied right of access or notifying TVL of charges for processing standard letters received or visits from 'enforcers'.

 

I know I am far from clear on the issues despite reading a number of threads.

All I can say is WOW - thank you.

 

Interesting that CAB only TV's are mentioned as exempt if they dont receive a broadcast as it is aired, they dont state any of the other devices are. So even CAB's summary leaves questions unanswered.

 

The Gov one seems clearer to me in that regard always referring to a 'television receiver' whereas the CAB one says

 

• TV sets
  
• set-top boxes
  
• DVD recorders
  
• video recorders
  
• computers and laptops
  
• mobile phones or other battery-operated devices
  
• games consoles.
  

First time I've really looked at it in detail, and its very understandable why people are confused.
