TV Licence

• Do I need a TV Licence?

  You need a TV Licence if you:

  • watch or record live TV programmes on any channel (including BBC)
  • download or watch any BBC programmes on iPlayer – live, catch up or on demand.

  Please check out https://www.tvlicensing.co.uk/ for more info if you are still unsure!

• How much do I pay for my TV licence?

  Your TV licence fee is set by the UK government through UK legislation. We will charge the amount they would charge you annually for your licence plus a £2.49 management fee per month per house – this is included in the quote you receive.

  If you are blind (severely sight impaired), you're entitled to a 50% discount on your TV licence fee. Please let us know if this is the case.

• Why are the TV licensing authority contacting me?

  There are several reasons they are contacting you – we find the most common reason to be that the customer communications from the TV Licence authority are not aware of your licence being paid for under our business account. Don’t worry, this is easy for us to resolve – just give us a call on 0333 666 5555 or email us at glide@glide.co.uk.

  Other reasons could include: an investigation into the previous tenants, only having just set up your account or if there’s been a mistake with your address. Please ring/email us if you are concerned.

• How do I find my TV Licence number?

  Your TV Licence number will be displayed under the 'My house' section on your online account area. Please note this is NOT a customer account number – this is a multi-site licence number that is valid for our business account. Your licence will be added to our account and will be paid for accordingly in our name.

  If you are not able to find your account number,  please get in touch and we will be able to confirm this for you.
