UTILITIES
When you rent a property in Greece you will need to connect your electricity (if the Landlord does not wish to retain the bills in his own name) and to have a telephone line connected.

Telephone: ISDN lines are now readily available in Greece. Most properties are wired to have two separate lines connected but it is worth inquiring with the owners if you need a second line and the property you are considering is old. When you install a telephone line in Greece, you pay a fixed charge the amount for which depends on whether it is an ISDN or ordinary line. New telephone applications can be made, either at the central office for your area or over the phone.
