Hi

Newbie - so go easy on me folks.

Quite a simple query really & hope someone can advise.

We have a 'cable & wireless' telephone extension socket fixed to the skirting board in the bedroom which isn't used. We have just ordered a new superking size bed & need every inch we can get to fit the bed in.

I want to remove this socket from the wall as it isn't any use & will simply hide the redundant cable under the carpet / floorboards.

Question is - if I remove the socket / box & associated wiring - will the rest of the Virgin telephone system 'go down' in the house or is this extension wiring totally independent of the main telephone wiring?

I intend to remove it all carefully & will tape up any exposed wires etc, but just wanted to know if it is safe to do so without the fear of the rest of the telephone lines in the house remaining intact?

Many thanks in advance
