Hi you have to pay for Billag evenif you have no TV.We are having only cablecom connection,but they are charging 48chf quarterly
If you do not watch TV, you can have your socket sealed, which proves to Billag that you cannot watch TV. Unfortunately they also classify computers as capable of receiving TV signals. Plus most likely you *should* still pay for Radio, if you have a car with inbuilt radio or a mobile phone that can receive those signals too..

The cablecom and billag fees have nothing in common. Billag charges you for the right to receive/watch/listen to Swiss public broadcasting.
