Wait do you get flat numbers? I've just got a confirmation, nothing else.

Hi guys, would also very much like to know where to find your flat numbers. I've accepted and paid but when I look at the contract details it just says 'Hall Broadgate Park' and a blank next to property.

Edit: Also a quick/random question- I have a tonne of posters I'd like to bring but the terms are a little confusing.
Fixing posters or anything else to the walls, doors, ceilings or window-frames is likely to leave a mark, even if You use things which are supposed not to
mark. We will not allow marks from pins, tape, blu-tak and so on as fair wear
and tear: We will treat them as Damage.
It doesn't seem to be saying posters are prohibited, just marks..? Would white tak be sufficient or does Broadgate Park not tolerate posters at all?

I gather that posters are cool just the blu tack mark that may be left is classed as 'damage'.

Hey guys!
I am going to live in a studio at BGP next year too!
I am a bit worried because I live in France and I have no idea of how exactly it is!
I am curious and cannot wait until September ^^ so is there anyone who has pictures of a room?
I saw the one on the website but there are not the entire room (could not see the bathroom).
How do you know that you are living in a new or old block?

See ya =)
Salut Alinaa! I will get a studio as well @ BP, I arrive there in two weeks (presessional english), want me to post some pics?
Bonne soirée!

I'm going to stay at a studio in BP too, insurance ftw =)

I hope we still get other undergraduates close by, would suck if it was all 'locked up'. Econ /w Chinese Studies here.

White tak tends to leave a mark too and if they consider a wall damaged, they can/probably will charge you for the wall repainting. I know Unite charge about £60 per wall, not sure about BGP so it's a bit of a risk!

(New account, forgot old ones pw :biggrin:) I'm gonna risk if and bring a couple small posters, they haven't left marks on my home walls.

Oh and I contacted the Broadgate admins, they said most people will find out their specific residence 2 weeks before arrival for those curious as to where exactly they will be living.

Hello! So glad to finally find fellow undergrads living in Studios!
I was wondering the same thing about what is provided in the kitchenette, I thought we we might get an email with an inventory of what they would give, but I received nothing so gave them a call. Apparently, they provide a toaster, kettle, fridge, freezer, hob and oven.
Hope this helps! :smile:

I was in a Studio last year. I wasn't given a toaster, but there was a kettle, a hob, a fridge with a small freezer built within and a combi oven (basically a fancy microwave which can cook like an oven).
