Why would ITV want to check we have a valid TV license,  the TV

Hello barnaby@xxxxxxxxxxxx,
If I remember right, ITV also want a postal address. And a valid
email address. Why?
Postal address: To check whether you have a TV license. Email
address:  To confirm your details/send an authorisation code?
WRONG in assumption TV licence pays only for BBC, yes it pays fro BBC
but is also necessary to receive other TV programs.
Irrespective of that as in my email reply to Brad it's only recently been 'activated' that you need a licence to watch catchup TV, therefore when I registered for 4OD - well over a year ago - it was not a legal requirement. Therefore no reason for them to have my address.
