Love live TV? You need a TV Licence.
To kick off this year’s big summer of sport, plus every unmissable moment live TV has to offer, you need a TV Licence. That way you and your household will be covered to watch the TV you love, whatever TV service, streaming service or device you're watching on. A licence also covers you to use BBC iPlayer*.
So, if you don’t already have a TV Licence, buy yours now.
Watch TV on all channels on any TV service
(like BBC, ITV, Channel 4, Dave and international channels)?
Watch TV on Pay TV services
(like Sky, Virgin Media and BT)?
Watch live TV on streaming services
(like YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, Netflix and Freely)?
Watch TV on foreign channels, via satellite or online streaming?
Use BBC iPlayer?*
This includes recording and downloading. On any device.
That way, you’ll be legally covered to enjoy all the drama of live TV. Like a last-minute penalty or soap cliffhanger. Or the uproar over a judge’s score. It’ll also cover you if you’re watching BBC programmes on BBC iPlayer.
*A licence is not needed to watch S4C programmes on demand.
