Advice on buying a TV from Amazon

[13thWarriorWitch]

My TV broke a few months ago. Evidently unfixable.
Not being overburdened with cash and with no transport, I thought I might try Amazon on Black Friday. Hopefully get a deal.
However, I have a vague memory of reading somehere that Amazon automatically inform TV licensing whenever they sell a TV.
I do not require a licence - no live tv or iPlayer- but past experience tells me that even this being the case, and TV licencing being informed of this, does NOT stop the harassing letters and visits.

At the moment they do not have my details and frankly, I'd like to keep it that way.

I can't find any info online about this. Has anyone bought a TV from Amazon recently and can give me the 411?
Do Amazon inform on you if you buy from them?

(Yes I'm posting for traffic and I'm utterly shameless about it. Sorry.)

Thanks

As I recall everyone who sells a tv will inform the tv licence people.
I might well be wrong though.

Rescind implied right of access then Capita can't knock.

The detector vans were a lie.

Yep. Everyone who sells a tv informs the licensing people. Doesn't matter way you buy from.

I’ve not heard of this and it sounds unrealistic to me? Why would they bother to do this? How would they know who to charge, it could be a Christmas/birthday present for someone else. I stand corrected if wrong though.

Also, Amazon are cunts of the highest order who will jack up the prices only to knock them down for Black Friday.
You would be better off going with another retailer who will deliver, of whom there are many.

As I understand it, it was the law up to 2013 that retailers had to inform tvl.
But now most do not.

Just wasn't sure about Amazon as (yes I know they are cunts )

Not worried about detector vans.
I currently get letters threatening "the legal occupier" with all manner of horrors which I serenely ignore.

I could advise them that I don't need one but once they have your name they just never leave you alone.

Capita are nothing more than high pressure salesmen pretending to have more authority than they do.

I'd just rather avoid it.
