I take this as meaning once I purchased the equipment that Voom is no-longer supplying the equipment.
Yes, you may own the hardware, but you still cannot transfer the service.
Also, note, that you do not own the Access Card:
3. Purchased Equipment:
(a) ... The Access Card remains our property... You agree to return the Access Card to us upon request...
As for me, I decided to purchase my STB (or more precisely, not to return it at the end of the 4-month money-back period). I was well aware of the fact that it would be useless should I decide to cancel the service. But since I had no intentions of leaving VOOM, I decided to lock-in the promotional ("Charter") service rate and eliminate the rental fees. Still glad I did!
