Why? What happened?

Nothing, they just had really big notices that if they didn't hear back within 10 days, that you would forfeit your housing. And I really don't want that to happen to me.

I know, I know. I wasn't tryingt to rub it in your face. But it would really suck to lose the housing because a fault with the mails.

Called the Accommodation Office and they said they only recently sent information to the intercollegiate halls so I should be hearing directly from the halls soon. I suppose no one's got offers from UoL halls yet?

And Bismark, I just sent them a second e-mail. They never responded to the first one.

Has anyone else gotten their confirmation postcard back from LSE or seen that the school has charged the accomodations deposit from their bank account? They're making me very nervous.... :frown:

You could call them up to ask if they've received your documents and deposit. I did that today and they told me they had and will be cashing in around next week.

That's not a bad idea. I'll see if they answer my e-mail, but I think it's already too late to call today.

Thanks! (did you not get anything acknowledging receipt, either?)

I sent them an e-mail in the morning, and got an automatic response saying that they won't get to respond for at least 3 days. A lot of screw-ups I'd wager.

Anytime

They sent me an email today saying the same thing the guy said on the phone. Completely forgot about sending in the postcard until the very last minute when I was sealing the envelope :redface:

How do you find out about how much deposit you have to pay? When do you have to pay it?

I'm pretty sure that it was on the "more info about your dorm" page and on the list of conditions. It was £200.

About the deposit, it said so on one of the pages when I was filling up the provisional acceptance form online.

It's supposed to be paid within two weeks on receiving the email telling you about the accomodation offer.

Haven't you filled the provisional acceptance form? I sent off my deposit asap since they threatened to cancel the offer if they didn't get it on time. :mad:
