Ford Focus 2001 1.6 - Aircon squeak - 9884booth

When I put the Aircon on a get a squeak from the pulleys. If I turn it off the squeak goes away.
How much of a problem is this and is it expensive to fix?
The Aircon works great

Sounds like the time to have the belts replaced. How old are they. Regards Peter

Could certainly be a worn poly-v belt (only one on these)or possibly a worn clutch on the aircon pump pulley.

Any idea on cost to repair? It's high mileage and I just had cambelt changed (over 100k miles)
