Can I give away my Now TV Box?

I'm sorry, this is probably a really stupid question but I couldn't find the answer on their website. I have a NOW TV box that I don't use anymore (obviously the subscription has been cancelled), I was wondering if someone else can use it or if it's only the person that buys it? Was going to pop it into the charity shop if someone else can make use of it.

Many thanks.

    As long as you factory reset it & don't set it up again then your free to do what ever you want

    Same here Loco, have cancelled subscription, cannot seem to cancel the actual NOW TV account (including credit card details). Not sure if this is linked to the box.

    To perform a Factory Reset, press a pin in the RESET hole (shown below) and hold down for 30 seconds.

    In addition to the factory reset on the Now TV site log into your account go to devices and make sure it is not showing on there. You may need to go on to chat if it is the last device so that it is no longer linked to you account. Also make sure it forgets your wifi details.
    Paid off the last of my unsecured debts in 2016. Then saved up and bought a property. Current aim is to pay off my mortgage as early as possible. Currently over paying every month. Mortgage due to be paid off in 2036 hoping to get it paid off much earlier. Set up my own bespoke spreadsheet to manage my money.
