Fibre Broadband & moving BT master socket

I have FTTC in my area but would like to have my BT mastersocket moved about 1 metre nearer the front door (and near a plug socket) before I sign up for fibre broadband with my ISP and an engineer comes out. I did read somewhere that as part of the this process you can get your master socket moved a short distance for free (instead of the engineer just replacing the faceplate). However, I can't now find where I read that. Does anyone know if this is possible? Otherwise I think I would have to pay over £100 to get it moved in advance, but I'm reluctant to do that if it can be done all in one go.
thanks

I think most ISPs now use "self install" so no engineer comes to the house. When it wasn't self install you generally paid for the installation so may have been no cheaper than paying an engineer to come and do the job.

I didn't pay for my engineer-install

Rather than go for the expense (and it would be) of an NTE shift, then for such a short move surely just get a longer RJ11 to RJ11 lead ? Most that come with the routers are 1.5m some longer already.

Provider was charged, but they may have absorbed it across the contract term, just like some still do for the £49 self install charge, though a growing number charge that now.

Thanks for the replies. Wasn't aware of "self-install" option; since the local BT cabinet has been upgraded most people seem to get an OpenReach engineer out. And I still need my mastersocket moved - for reasons to do with a recent porch extension - so will contact my ISP (Plusnet) to see what's possible.

Providing its not one of those cheap flat non twisted cables
