Yes it's a scam. I had this email. It was very convincing. It said that my usual direct debit had been refused by my bank and I should click the link to renew. I didn't of course but rang my bank. They confirmed it was a scam

Just received an e-mail telling me my tv licence expires in 2 days with details how to renew through a bank.
As It is several years since we paid for a licence, this is obviously bogus, the fact that the tv may go off at Christmas may panic some folk.
Having read the schedules it may be a blessing.
