Yeah it definitely seems like every installation is different, and the poor engineers have to work it out as they go along. You’d think home builders would work with Virgin and install everything in a standardised way - ditto the BT stuff.

Cala seem to have pre-wired everything, including there being a telephone socket that was NOT part of the extension wiring (there’s another phone socket next to it that IS on the extension loop) that was next to the living room Virgin port. I’d have assumed that the Virgin socket would be that one but perhaps the extension wiring couldn’t be connected to it.

I feel for the engineers as every day must be a new obstacle!
