Frequent Asked Question (FAQ's)
What is platform fees?
Is it Refundable?
Will the booking fee be refunded to the student?
Why should a student book with UniAcco and not directly with the Property Manager?
Who is eligible to book with Axo Student Living?
Any full time student can live with AXO.
What happens if I chnage my mind after booking the room?
You have a 14 day ‘cooling off’ period from the point you pay your deposit as long as the 14 days lapse before the tenancy start date. Once the tenancy has started, you are not able to cancel.
If after the tenancy has started you want to leave, you will need to find a replacement to take over your room. We can advise you with this. Just speak to reception if this is something you require.
What is a deposit protection scheme?
By law, if you pay a deposit to your landlord or letting agent then they must protect it in a government-authorised tenancy deposit protection scheme. It applies to all landlords and agents in England and Wales who have an Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) agreement (the contract) with their tenant.
It was introduced to ensure that you are able to get your deposit back from your landlord or agent when you move out.
