Harry:

No, you do not need a visa and you can not actually even get a visa either. Don't listen to what Americans say, listen to what British passport holders in Poland say. What you need is a Residency Registration Certificate confirming your stay in Poland (Zaświadczenie o Zarejestrowaniu Pobytu Obywateli Unii Europejskiej w Polsce). However, as far as I know, not having such a certificate is not sufficient grounds to be deported.

OK, I will look into getting one of those if I stay on, thanks

Dominicus: The rules covering visas for you to Poland are the same as for France or Germany. Correct, there is no Visa requirement for any EU visitor to any other EU country. Very odd to even mention it.

Not sure if there is further confusion over the Visa thing, but thought i would mention about the Shengan zone.

The Schegan zone things does NOT affect whether you need a Visa or not. As an EU citizen you do NOT need a visa. What the Schegan zone relates to is the ability to cross borders without having to show your passport. Most of Europe i.e. EU contries is in the Schegan zone which means you can travel between countries with no border controls i.e. you dont have to show your passport. However, Uk (and ireland) opted out of this. I think it was because of terrorist threats and Uk wanted to keep an eye who was coming in and out of the country. All this means is that when you go to the UK, you have to show your passport. As stated before, this has nothing to do with requiring a Visa.

PS as a result of mass immigration, i think some coutnries are looking at re-introducing border controls.

BritinPoland: How do I rent a flat in Poland? This answer probably will be a bit too silly for you, but how about contacting someone who's advertising a flat?

well you need to know some Polish to effictively look for some place for yourself - I don't think there is any reliable accomodation search site in English (not at this moment of the year - think students are in search of accomodation now)
