Are we not supposed to do it ourselves?
'BT line' south of master socket (not my problematic language!), plus the socket itself, belongs to Openreach and isn't meant to be fiddled with by anyone else.
Satellite dish I imagine yes, although if it belonged to the supplier perhaps officially not. It's not going to affect anything else though, whereas my old phone line is attached to the telegraph pole and may still be live (if not high voltage). Plus if you just cut it free without checking the coast is clear you could have someone's eye out...

We have a few old cables on the front of the house too. I don't know which ones might be functioning. I no longer have a landline or TV but don't really want to cut them off in case someone wants to use them in future. Are we not supposed to do it ourselves?
I think I know which one went to the old satellite dish. Can I just cut that one off?
