STUDENTS have been warned they could face fines of up to £1000 if they continue to watch live TV online without a licence.
TV Licensing are reminding those who watch live TV they must have a valid licence, no matter what device they use to view programmes.
The number of students who watch TV live online has increased since last yearto just under a third, according to the latest research.
But 28 per cent think they don’t need a licence or have no plans to buy one.
A licence is required for watching or recording any programmes at the same time as they are shown on TV.
