    Don't know if this is the right section to ask this?

    I'm looking to get myself a virtual address in Dublin, so far the cheapest I can find that is €20 per month.

    Does anyone know anywhere cheaper? The only service I require is the address and possibly mail forwarding depending on the prices.

    Cheers!

    I would have thought the cheapest option, and the most basic, would be a PO Box number. But I believe they cost about €250 a year, so the €20 a month service you've found may be the cheapest.

    I had the impression an post po boxes were insanely expensive? Their pricing structure is quite confusing.

    Just had a look and you're right, it looks mad. But the annual 12 month fee is €260. 11 months is €238.11. The fee for 6 Months or less is €130

    Hope that clears it up!

    I would pay the few quid extra and get the virtaul office address as I don't think it looks good having a po box number on your website or business cards.

    A lot of businesses will not supply a company if they use a PO Box as a business address. You cannot sue a PO Box for unpaid bills!!
