    What do accommodation fees cover?
    Hi, I'm an international student, moving into High Holborn this year. May I know if I have to pay for electricity, gas, water, council tax and internet on top of the rent?

    Thanks for your post. However, did you specifically mean lse accommodation or your uni halls? Or do most halls cover these basic needs of a modern student?

    Yes, Hallpad said it included insurance too but the license statement said nothing about what the fees covered.
