    does anyone know anywhere that sells them other than the post office? think the PO sells them for like €200+ for 2 or 3 months which is a bit much, in the states u can get them for about $20 a month. just wondering if theres anywhere that sells them, or even a mail forwarding service that i can send my letters to and have them forwarded to my home address
    thanks

    Hi

    Current rates for PO Box is about €250.00 per year, when you collect the accumalated mail from the delivery office. I currently have one. A couple of disadvantages : some people don't like PO Boxes, the other is you have to phone or call in to check if there is anything there. Would be better if you got an Email when something was in the Box.

    Redirection costs € 220.00 for 12 months if post is been forwarded to somewhere in Ireland. 300.00 if outside Ireland ( Used it just for one month 110.00 ) sucess rate about 95% , some letters went to the old address.

    I dont know of any other service providers

    regards

    Aidan

    Why not use a Business Accomodation Address service , you can get one for about €30 per month. PM me and I will send you details.

    Hi all, on the Mail Boxes Etc website it says that a personal mail box for 12 months costs 288 euro. I purhcased this with my credit card and got a call the next day from the guy in Lombard Street saying that the same box would cost 369 euro. Does anybody have any experience with this crowd? Also, any cheaper options in the D2 area? The Post Office website says it costs at least 150 euro PER MONTH!!!!
