Hi this is my 1st post i'l try to be articulate

My house currently has what would be a master BT socket and two extension sockets in different rooms, when I was with BT these worked fine.
Now being on virgin they fitted a new master VIRGIN socket next to the master BT one.
Now My Question
Is it possible to take the phone cable that comes from the entry point for virgin(the rectangular box with a phone wire and a coaxial cable for TV) and connect it to the old BT master socket which would in turn allow me to use the two extensions that are wired to the master BT socket??

Sorry if the wording is confusing, if you could actually see the set up it would be so much easier to understand!

Any help appreciated !

Sorry the reason im going to all this trouble is due to sky multiroom requiring a working phone line!
