TV Licensing keeps sending me letters with "Action required immediately" stamped on the front. This is false, and there's probably a good argument they know or believe it to be false, given a significant percentage of the people they hassle (including me) have no television and therefore need take no action.
Their letters, including that marking on the outside are pretty clearly intended to cause distress or anxiety to people who don't have television licences.
Does that mean they're breaking the law? This sounds like an interesting new angle from which to approach their blight on society. (-8
(Actually, even if I can't argue that they know it's false, by my understanding all I have to do is tell them it's false that any action is immediately required of me, and it would then be a criminal offence for them ever to send me another anxiety-inducing letter printed with that lie?)
