Oh, good to know! What network was this good phone reception with? I'm with Meteor. How is it in terms of location?
Eh, my flatmate was Meteor, I was Vodafone, O2 were fine as well.. Like it's not perfect (I'd go to the kitchen for calls) but we could actually receive texts, which can't be said for every flat :P It's facing out on to the road on the corner of the bigger (and better) courtyard. Facing out can make it a little more isolated but it's not a big deal, and it does make it easier to have parties without getting shut down :P It's also a 5 person flat, which means you've more kitchen space, and being on a corner means the living room/kitchen are bigger and better designed as regards layout. Which room are you in?
(Also my flatmate lost a silver locket in the flat somewhere last year and we never found it. So giz a shout if that turns up
) 0 -

There's 3 apartments per floor, so usually fourth floor. Houses 80, 81 and 82 are laid out differently afaik so maybe third floor there?
Also, none of the buildings have an apartment 13 which is a bit strange!
Cheers for that, im staying in house 80, is there anything good or bad about it compared to the rest of the buildings? :P
Also 40 euro "compulsory JCR membership" has been added to my accommodation invoice, is this an absolute must-pay?
its 40 quid like.. :eek: 0 -

Can't say I ever visited House 80, I was in 91 myself. 80's over by reception and from what I heard it was no different to any of the other Houses in terms of craic or banter.
The JCR's not compulsory to join I think, but you will definitely miss out on basically everything if you don't join! I don't know anyone who didn't last year! Seriously though, if you want the best possible Halls experience, definitely join the JCR, the 40 quid will have paid for itself a hundred times over by the end of the year through nights out, events, balls, trips away and tons of free pizza!!
You'll hear all about it on the first day when you meet them all, they're a fantastic bunch of people!0 -

You've convinced me lads, JCR sounds gooood
Just tried to pay for my accomm + jcr membership but it keeps telling me my card details are incorrect (even though they aren't ofcourse). Has anyone managed to successfully pay with the AIB merchant on the accommodation website today?
