Last minute accomodation applicationSo I have Southampton as my insurance choice and a few days ago I got an email telling me to apply for accomodation. I'd never thought to do it, as my firm choice only lets you apply if you have it as your firm. My internet's been down for a few days as well, so I haven't been able to go look at the residences properly. Can anyone give me some advice or any details that it may have taken them a while to realise?
Also, it says here that there's 20 halls, but here there's nowhere near 20, even counting the small halls' 7 locations.
When I get home I'll dig through all my old booklets, but I have the horrible feeling I've thrown them away.
I also can't seem to find the prices and most of the details and so on...Last edited by A.J10; 28-07-2012 at 18:31. -

Re: Last minute accomodation applicationI don't think "they" realised anything. The email is probably automatically sent out to all applicants at this time - don't have experience of Southampton but Sheffield (my insurance) always say "ignore this email if you've already applied for accomodation" whenever they get in touch on the subject.

Wessex lanes also has two, so they might have counted each individual block to get to 20. -

Sorry about any confusion, I'm quickly getting stressed at this. I'm having to use my dad's computer which has the worst keyboard and mouse ever (no capslock light an half my keystrokes are forgotten), vista, and internet explorer
Just makes everything that little bit more painful.
I also can't log into their system... Is my southampton ID the same number they need for me to register?
