Stuck basin tap

[eteo66]

Hello friends,

I am trying to replace this basin tap. I am able to remove the nut holding the tap in place as well as unscrewing both hot and cold water connectors on either side of the copper pipe (not sure about the terminology, sorry) but then the tap seems stuck. Any advice on how to remove the tap?

Thanks friends.

Unscrew the handles and nuts on top side.

Thanks for your quick reply. Do you mean remove the nuts at the red arrows? I have removed the nuts at the green arrows but still seems stuck.

This is what the set up looks like on top

I had to remove the entire basin. How do I separate the tap? It is all in one piece with the copper pipe. It seems like I have to cut the tap or the copper pipe off.

Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated.
