Are you intending to have a phone service and if Yes , is the phone number you had with Virgin required ?
Assuming you don’t want a phone service or any number will do , there is no ‘connection’ between VM network and Openreach, but obviously there will be a lead time to get service over OR , if you order BT in the very near future then that’s the best way to try and guarantee it will be in and working before the VM service is disconnected, but until you order to you won’t have a date , it’s impossible to know what the date offered will be in advance, but hopefully 3 weeks should be doable .
Do you need any special equipment, obviously you would be ordering FTTP where no FTTP currently exists so a new install is required ( assuming you are not in a new build that had BT and VM available when you moved in and you chose VM ) , if you put your address into the wholesale checker it will gives the availability, if it’s single stage or 2 stage install and the installation method ,
