Hi,

Our house has wired phone points to all rooms and all wire back to the BT main socket.

When we changed over to Virgin we had a virgin phone socket put next to it and now only have one phone point (in the kids bedrooom).

Its a crap place to have the answerphone as we never see it and the numerous wireless phones we have tried all have their own problems (i.e. out of range and poor batteries, etc.).

We have to have the base in the bedroom but take the phone out of the cradle at night in case anyone calls after the kids are put to bed. Then we forget to put it back and it runs out of batteries!

Does anyone know if there's a simple way of connecting the virgin phone line to all the other sockets (an adapter or something from one socket to the other) or do I need to get an Engineer in?

If an engineer is the only solution I think we will just go back to Bt.

Thank you!
