As for the time, i'm sure that's because he had to work out how the wiring was done as no plans are provided to the installers... they have to work it out on the job

He was very pleasant, so no real complaints about the installer.
I'd have thought VM would install their own master socket and then just attach the extension wiring to that instead of the BT socket. Not sure what I'd do if I wanted, e.g. a BT phone line and Virgin internet. I guess the BT guy would have the open the Virgin box and reconnect the BT cable to the master socket?
Normally when you have a phone line already, they won't send an engineer, so I don't know how this would work.
It's sort of moot, as I can't see us moving away from Virgin given how abhorrent the ADSL service is in this area. Still, I'd like to think it's been done properly.
