Went up on Friday and wasn't to impressed with the bedroom that's all, kitchen looked spot on though, sure it will be fine.
Do you guys think its worth paying the full accommodation costs up front to get money off? And is anyone opting out of the sports membership?

I've opted not to... I'm just going to budget carefully and make sure I have enough for 3 instalments... A 2% discount didn't seem worth it to me!

I opted in... But you get 3 weeks to cancel from the start of the year to get a full refund!
Everyone that got their accommodation offers back, by any chance are you guys unconditional?

You won't get your accommodation confirmed until results day if you haven't got the grades yet

I thought I read somewhere it was a refund minus the admin costs?

Oh, idk.. The price breakdown for my accommodation just said 2% discount - nothing about admin fees though... I've probably slipped up and lost myself £££ :colondollar:

For the sports membership it says 'there is a 14 day cooling off period. Refunds less a £20.00 administration fee will only be given up to 14 days after taking out membership. Refunds can only be given once within the membership year.'

I was going to keep the membership thinking it meant access to a gym but thats only on the gold package not silver so I decided against it

There's a gold package upgrade though from the silver membership I think

I didn't accept my accommodation offer within 7 days because I forgot when it expired so they said it had been withdrawn and I wouldn't get another choice, thank goodness they sent me an extension of a week to get it done otherwise I would have been homeless for a year haha
