Sorry I am a bit late to this one. I can confirm:
- I live in the EU (Ireland)
- I have an account with IBKR Ireland.
- It is a traditional account, not an IBKR Lite account.
- Most months I make no trades.
- The only fees I pay every month are data fees. These are unbundled so I pay for 4 - 6 different sets of data and am charged separately for each. I forget what I am paying for at this stage but I think it covers US stocks, US options, forex and possibly US futures.
- Total fees each month including VAT is €6 - €7.
- I could presumably reduce or eliminate this by unsubscribing to some or all of the data.
- I don't pay any other minimum account fee and haven't done for several years.

As an aside, I still own one US ETF which I've held since before I was blocked from doing so by EU regulations. I believe it is still possible to acquire US ETF via options - sell an in-the-money PUT such that you will be assigned the shares - but I have not done this.
