Last time I had a bunch of lines put in, my apt. was (obviously) not wired for it. I put in two 8-wire jacks next to each other, connected with a 6" length of connectorized cable, and told them "bring me 3 lines" and it cost me the minimum $45 to do it, since they didn't have to install jacks or anything, and i drilled a hole through the wall near the jack for them to run the wire to. It took the guy all day to do the job (his dime, not mine) because the main block on the apt. building did not have enough capacity, and there also wasn't enough capacity from the box on the street to my apt. building.
