How It Works

I have a savings card but haven't got my TV Licence yet. Is this normal?

Your paper licence is sent to you by post, attached to a letter. If you haven't received it, call us on 0300 555 0281 to speak to one of our agents.

What is the TV Licensing savings card?

This is for people who have at least three months left on their current TV Licence before it expires and want to save towards their next licence. The TV Licensing savings card helps you save towards your next licence in small, manageable amounts at any time from as little as £2.

How does it work?

You'll receive a Welcome Pack containing your savings card. You'll be able to add to your savings whenever you like. If you've saved enough to cover the cost of your next TV Licence when your current licence expires, we'll automatically send you your next licence in the post.

How do I sign up?

You can apply by completing an application form over the counter at your local Post Office.

Or you can call us on 0300 555 0281 Monday to Friday between 8am and 9pm or Saturday between 8am and 5pm.

How will I know how much I've saved with my savings card?

We'll send you a statement every 6 months. You'll be able to see how much you saved during this time - and also when you made your payments. You can check your balance by either:

  • Logging in by entering your surname, postcode and Customer Number to view your payment history and balance.
  • Calling our 24hr automated balance enquiry service on 0300 555 0281.
  • Text INFO along with your Customer Number (eg: INFO 123456789) to 64488. All texts will be charged at your standard text message cost set by your mobile phone service provider.

Please note that it may take 48 hours from the time we receive your payment for it to appear on your payment history.

Once logged in you can

  • Make a payment
  • Check your balance
  • View your payment history
  • Request a call back from one of our agents
