1. Can I cancel my booking before I move in?
We offer a ‘cooling off period’ of 7 days after you have secured your accommodation by paying a booking fee or/and signing the Assured Shorthold Tenancy [AST], on condition that you have not already checked into the accommodation. In these cases, you must provide email/written confirmation to the site. You will no longer be liable for the contractual obligations as set out in the tenancy agreement, and we will refund your full booking fee.
2. What if I want to cancel my booking after the 7-day cooling off period?
If you wish to cancel your booking after the 7-day cooling off period, you will remain liable for the contractual obligation set out in the tenancy agreement.
Exceptions to this may be considered if proof is offered under the following circumstances:
·Your UK Visa application has been denied
·You have failed to obtain the required qualifications to get into your first University of choice
·Extenuating circumstances e.g. ill-health, family circumstances
Where proof is required, this must be emailed to site, then the request to cancel will be considered. If you have failed to obtain your grades to attend university or your UK visa has been denied, the proof must be supplied and emailed to the site within 72-hours. On receipt of the proof we will cancel your booking and refund your full booking fee. You will no longer be liable for the contractual obligations in your tenancy agreement.
If you fail to send the proof within the 72-hour timescale, your booking fee will be retained. If you fail to tell us until after the tenancy commencement date you will be liable for the full contract.
