Cancellation Policy
Cooling Off Period
Unless you have already collected the keys to the accommodation, you may cancel your booking by writing or completing our Cancellation Form, at any time during the 7 days after we send you an e-mail confirming your booking is complete (the “7 Day Cooling-Off Period”). If your Tenancy is for a room in Wales, please contact us directly as a different cooling off period may apply. If you do that, you will not be charged and we will return your deposit or any Advance Rent Payments you have made.
Once the 7 Day Cooling-Off-Period has expired, you will have to pay all amounts due under your Tenancy Agreement unless a replacement Tenant is found for your Room in accordance with this policy, or you enter a new Tenancy with the Property Manager. To be considered a replacement Tenant, the individual would need to be a student who is eligible to book a room in the usual way.
Replacement Tenants – Before your Tenancy Start Date has occurred
If you have proposed a replacement Tenant prior to your Tenancy Start Date, the Property Manager has complete discretion as to whether it:
a. accepts the proposed replacement Tenant and enters into a Tenancy Agreement with them;
b. places the room back on general sale; or
c. allocates the room to an alternative student on a waiting list to enter into a Tenancy Agreement.
We will release you from your Tenancy Agreement on the date seven days after any of the above has occurred.
Replacement Tenants – After your Tenancy Start Date has occurred
If a replacement Tenant is found for your Room after your Tenancy Start Date, we will release you from your Tenancy Agreement from the start date of the replacement Tenant's new Tenancy Agreement. If you have occupied the Room prior to this, you will be charged £50.00 to cover our costs of preparing the Room for the replacement Tenant.
No Place No Pay – applicable to 1st year students only
If you are a prospective first year undergraduate student and your offer of a place at your preferred University/Higher Education Institution is withdrawn as a result of you not achieving their required entry grades, you may be eligible to be released from your Tenancy Agreement. You may also be eligible if you choose to go to a different University because you have exceeded your expected grades. To apply, you will need to supply:
d. a written rejection letter from your chosen university/college or UCAS or a screenshot of your UCAS status confirming required results were not achieved; or
e. proof of acceptance of your new university via UCAS adjustment.
These document(s) must be received within 7 calendar days from the date your results are published. Please complete our Cancellation Form with your documents. On receipt of the required documentation, it will be verified and, provided we are satisfied, we will cancel your Tenancy Agreement and refund any deposit or advance rent paid in full.

Frequent Asked Question (FAQ's)
Is it possible to prolong my tenancy?
Certainly, if your current room is still vacant, we would be delighted to extend your stay. Kindly get in touch with us, we will be pleased to facilitate this arrangement for you.
Is there parking provided at my accommodation, and what is the associated cost?

For details on parking availability at your accommodation, refer to your property welcome guide. Locate your welcome guide here.
Why is my credit no longer visible on my statement?
If there's a credit on your account, it will no longer be displayed on your account statement. However, if you have an upcoming future instalment (within the next 10 days), any previously shown credit on your account has now been utilized to offset the upcoming instalment. This means that the rent will be deducted, with the amount being reduced by the credit on your account.
What types of bank cards are accepted for payments on the Unite Students Website?
Accepted bank cards for making payments on the Unite Students Website include Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, Maestro, and UnionPay.
Which currencies can I use for making payments?
Payments made via Visa, Visa Electron, Mastercard, or Maestro will be in GBP (£).
For Chinese students making payments via UnionPay credit or debit cards, payments will be displayed in GBP (£) during the payment process. However, the bank will deduct the amount in CNY or RMB (¥).
Can I make payments using UnionPay?
If you are an international customer and unable to pay by Direct Debit or CCRA (recurring card payment), it might be possible for you to pay via UnionPay through your online Customer Account or during your booking.
What happens if I can't make a payment?
Instalment due dates are outlined in your tenancy agreement, and by accepting the contract's terms and conditions, both the customer and guarantor are accepting responsibility for payment on the provided dates. If you cannot make a payment, please communicate with your property team. They can discuss your payment options and advise you on any potential implications based on the lateness of the payment.
