Yesterday I received an email reminder to renew my TV license. Last year I did this online for the first time, and by debit card, saving a lot of hassle. This year the online procedure appears to commit the online renewer to no choice subsequently other than a permanent automatic direct debit on the date selected - a year's time in my case. I don't want to have to do this as it would seem to commit me regardless of whatever future charges and my financial straits will be, or whether or not I still have a TV.
Is this right? and if so, when did the change take place? It seems a pretty drastic change, but I don't remember any announcement being made.
