Booking with us is simple, we won't ask you to pay any deposits or upfront costs! All you need to do is complete an online form. We'll ask you your name, number and email (all the usual personal details) and how you'd like to pay. After that's all done, and we've accepted your booking, you'll be sent an offer of accommodation. We'll send you a link to complete some further details and access your tenancy agreement which you'll need to sign and return to us within 10 days and then that's it. You've booked a room. Congrats! You will need to make your first payment 10 days before your move in date. If you are unable to move in please advise your accommodation manager as you are legally bound to pay your full year's rent upon signing your tenancy agreement. If you're paying your rent in installments, you'll need a guarantor. That gives us and you the security that your rent will be paid in full.
House Policies
Contract for Accommodation
All booking requests for accommodation made on the website are subject to acceptance by us. We are not obliged to accept your booking request and may, at our discretion, decline to accept any booking request for any reason. If – for whatever reason – we can’t make you an offer of accommodation, we’ll let you know as soon as possible, explain why, or offer you an alternative solution.
Where we accept your booking request, we’ll send you an offer of accommodation. You will need to accept the offer of accommodation online to confirm the booking. We reserve the right to withdraw an offer of accommodation at any time before it is accepted by you on the website. Please note that our offer of accommodation shall automatically lapse if you do not confirm the booking within 10 days of receipt.
You can accept our offer of accommodation and confirm the booking by:
- logging into your account on the website
- providing details of your guarantor (if applicable);
- providing ID documentation and any further information which we may request from you; and reading through and signing your tenancy agreement.
Your booking will be confirmed and the contract to supply the accommodation created when you sign your tenancy agreement. You acknowledge and agree that once you have signed the tenancy agreement you will have no right to cancel the contract, and shall be liable to pay the full rent and any related fees relating to the accommodation for the duration of the tenancy.
Guarantors and Payment Terms
If you don’t have a UK-based guarantor, we’ll ask you to pay the full years’ rent upfront ten days before your contract starts. Alternatively, you can use a guarantor service such as Your Guarantor who will act as a guarantor on your behalf for a small fee. You can select this option when you make a booking at any of our Hello Student managed properties.
If you do have a guarantor, you can pay your rent in three instalments. The first, ten days before your contract starts (or you won’t be able to move in). The second in January. And the last in April. In some cases, (like if your student loan comes through later) you may be able to pay in four instalments instead. To arrange that just contact us.
Cancellations After You've Moved in
If for any reason you decide to leave during your contracted term, we might be able to release you from your tenancy agreement. But only if these conditions are met:
- You agree not to transfer or sublet the tenancy to anyone else without our written consent, as in point 7.1(n) of the tenancy agreement.
- You find a suitable replacement to take a new tenancy agreement for the rest of your tenancy. This person must: be at least 18 years old and enrolled as a full-time student in a university close to the accommodation; enter into a tenancy agreement with us and pay all sums due within it; and provide a guarantor where reasonable, who must accept the terms and conditions set out in the tenancy agreement.
- You pay a £50 administration fee. We can’t refund you until the student replacing you has taken over your room’s contract, signed the tenancy agreement, paid, and moved in. If you can’t find someone to take over your tenancy, you’ll be responsible for paying the full rent until the end of your tenancy agreement.
If You Don't Get a Place at University
If you’re a first-year prospective undergraduate student and your offer at your preferred higher education institute is withdrawn, we may be able to release you from your tenancy agreement if:
- You find a suitable replacement to take a new tenancy agreement for the rest of your tenancy. This person must: be at least 18 years old and enrolled as a full-time student in a university close to the accommodation; enter into a tenancy agreement with us and pay all sums due within it; and provide a guarantor where reasonable, who must accept the terms and conditions set out in the tenancy agreement; and
- you provide a written rejection letter from your chosen higher education institute; and
- you provide a copy of the acceptance letter from your new higher education institute.
