If you drop your VM TV package entirely, do they take the boxes back, or can you continue to use them as freeview boxes for BBC, ITV, etc?

We have everything from VM - TV, phone, and broadband - but due to some very unfortunate and unforeseen circumstances, we need to cut right back on our bills for now until finances are sorted out. We've dropped from the XL to M, but it's still £50-odd quid a month for a package of TV channels we never watch.

We need to keep the phone and broadband, but not the TV. Getting a Freeview box isn't an ideal solution, as the area is in a 'natural bowl' and even the digital signal is patchy at best.
