| Comment | Can't help with the compensation issue... if I were the landlord I'd be compensating you at least for the extra leccy but not sure if they *legally* have to. In any case I reckon asking politely would get you further than demanding.
As for the virgin box, you don't plug that into a phone line anyway. It needs a coax cable which may or may not exist (I had an ntl box which the virgin tech "converted" (I think he literally just plugged it in). You probably need a virgin tech.
That blank is almost certainly an old socket pre-rewire. Don't open it as you may find exposed wire underneath. (You technically shouldn't find anything untoward, but I've seen some shit behind those.)
