Aha - so "standardisation" = reduce all services to the lowest possible!

Thanks for the info though.

Unfortunately due to the amount of different telecoms kit Virgin have, sometimes that is all they can do

Does anyone know whether the second line will already be connected to the house?
Im sure a techniction will correct me if im wrong. From memory the standard telephone wire that runs from the street level box to your house is 6 core (a normal telephone line uses 2 cores) so theoretically the cable bringing your phone into your house is capable of carrying upto 3 lines without new cable needing running from the street to your house :)

Thanks, sounds good. The lid fell off the outside box when I was working near it outside a while back, and I do remember there were some curled up unconnected spare wires tucked inside it.

So hopefully no digging then.
