    I am moving to Dublin in a couple of months and would like to have a rough idea of a typical monthly bill of light & heat and a water bill.I am going to be sharing a flat together with a friend so I would like to know the cost per person for such bills.

    Also are there other monthly costs which have to be taken into account,besides the rent ?

    Thanks.

    Nicky

    Hi there,
    I ve been living in Dublin 8 months now.So this is what I will tell you from my personal experience.
    Water,no charge for domestic use!!!!!
    Electricity,30-35 euro for 1 bedroom flat per month.
    Refuse-Bin Charge havent paid yet,dont know the costs.
    TV Licence-150 EURO A YEAR!!!!You would have to pay in one go.Havent paid , no intention of payin,4 crap chanells.(nobody knows I got TV ;) )
    Ntl basic 19 euro a month(18 chanells),but if you go with them you would have to pay licence as well.
    Internet and telephone,very expensive,about 60-65 ,with line rental and broadband.I got wireless 30 euro a month,cheaper and no need to enable phone line,that could cost 120 euro for connection!
    Weekly bus ticket ,19 euros per week!

    I guess I covered everything,if any other questions feel free to ask 8)

    Regards

    Hey There,

    Thanks for the info.I sincerely thought that the landlord pays for the license if he/she owns the TV and the use of the TV would be part of the apartment's rent.

    Also,would you be able to give me a rough figure of the monthly food costs as i guess that's the most expensive thing we will have after the rent.

    And what about the heat & light costs ?

    Also,are there particular areas in Dublin I should definitely avoid when looking for an apartment ?

    Nicky
