8532 TV License How much? help please

Any long term resident who can help please...Received a reminder to renew TV license but when I took it to the lady in the post office she said she could not take my eagerly proferred cash because there was no sum in the 'how much to pay' section. So ... how much is the Tv license and can I simply write it in myself, I did see a notice with 104 euros mentioned - is this it?

Hi
If you take it to your local lotto shop, they can sort it out for you ..........

I just got my renewal notice and it's [B]€106[/B] this year. This notice was attached to it and shows where and how you can pay. Just click to enlarge.
If a translation is needed just ask....

All I can say is thanks v much folks - I have been to the local lotto/tabaccheria and the guy behind the counter knew about the 106 euros and had the job done in 5 min and it cost me 1.55 euros - not bad. Thanks again

you gotta love a country where:

having a bank account in which to hold your money costs you money *
owning a TV (to receive mainly cr@p programmes) costs you money
withdrawing money to pay for the cr@p programmes costs you money *
paying the money to the guy at the lotto shop costs you money

* OK, there [I]are[/I] some free accounts, but my resistance to change is legendary :-)
