I paid our TdH less the TV licence in 2007 (with no explanation). I later received a 'tick box' form on which I was able to confirm the property was a 'maison secondaire' and that we had no TV. In 2008 the bill I received didn't include the TV licence, but in 2009 it was included again. I've paid the 2009 bill, less the TV bit (again with no explanation)... we'll see what happens.
