ARD & ZDF: Objection to assessment notice – How to defend yourself against the contribution service
ARD & ZDF - Now object to the assessment notice – How to defend yourself against the contribution service
📬 Mail from the contribution service – and suddenly you have to pay?
The "Fee Contribution Service of ARD, ZDF, and Deutschlandradio" is writing to you again. This time with a notice of assessment. Sounds dangerous? It's meant to be. But: You're not defenseless.
What many people don't realize is that the Contribution Service is an unincorporated organization —legally , it's more like a dummy with stationery. Nevertheless, they regularly try to exert pressure and force payments.
🧾 Objection to the assessment notice – why it’s worth it
You have the right to appeal the decision, and that is exactly what you should do – especially if you have the impression that ARD & ZDF have long since failed in their mission.
Because: According to the Federal Constitutional Court, the broadcasting fee may only be levied if it provides an “individual benefit” – i.e. neutral, balanced reporting.
Look at the media landscape – and judge for yourself whether this is the case.
