Physically they are identical, all standard UK house phones will plug into either socket. The key difference in how some of the exchange end services are implemented. For example, house phone SMS services may use different protocol and might CLi. It you are using the line as simple phone you should have no trouble with any combination of phone/socket.

What does the blue 'mercury' button do on your home telephone?

I use the blue Mercury button on my telephone to select my alternative telephone "service provider". Today its use automatically connects me to the Tiscali network. Originally, it linked me to Mercury, which was an early (the first?) alternative to BT and allowed me to separate billing for outgoing business calls while being invoiced by BT for the basic connection and domestic call charges. Mercury became Cable & Wireless and subsequently NTL then nPower, I believe, before being inherited by Italian(?) operator Tiscali. My original equipment, a combined telephone/fax/answerphone machine, is getting old so likely will need replacement, but I don't know if modern telephones have the mercury (or equivalent) facility. Perhaps someone can tell me?
