im currently a student, who is planning to move into my own flat with my partner, he is not a student,the rent is £395 a month and the being a student i need to know every single shilling that will be wanted from me so i really dont have a clue what is meant by ”the bills and council tax are low’ – the flat is in glasgow almost city centre, anyone with examples of their own bill paymets would be GREAT!

Your landlord should be able to tell you how much the council tax will be monthly, as far as your electricity, gas , well that will depend on how much you use. You need to work that one out yourself. If it is a card meter then you should be able to judge what you use weekly, and same with the other. If your partner is employed then his wages will be taken into account if asking for a council tax rebate (as you are a student, you may be considered for one) I would ask at the council tax office where you stand. No harm in asking about a rent rebate either. Contact your local DSS they should be able to tell you more. Good Luck.
