top ten reasons to pick NTU

Accommodation

fair enough but what they don't mention is how unorganised they really are.

they must suck at a lot of things then, but act like they don't

haha yeah, probably better not to doubt your uni choice though, just say the accommodation service is crap, and leave it at that lol. I already have my family trying to get me to change my uni (even though i physically can't, even if i wanted to), i don't need myself doubting it :s-smilie:

silly bank holiday!!
Right I think this is the number I rang! +44 (0)115 848 4200 I just explained that I needed my ID to book accommodation asap and they took my UCAS ID number thing and gave me my NTU ID. I really hope you get this sorted soon! I bet on Tuesday everyone will be phoning them for their IDs haha!!!

I know yeah! Those morons are gonna put me on hold all day aren't they, that's really gonna keep me calm :mad:

I would suggest that you keep trying to log on over the next day or so. If you are still having no success you could telephone the library tomorrow and/or Tuesday to ask one of the library staff to try the unlocking procedure again for you. The telephone number is 0115 8482175.

I am also sending a copy of this reply to the IT Service Desk so that they can also look into the issue.

That would be horrible, i'd just go ahead and start filling in a Open university application if they said that to me, don't think i could handle the stress :s-smilie:

Someone earlier mentioned that they have an unconditional offer and never recieved their ID, so they rang NTU and got it that way. You will probably have to do the same. Most people who don't have their ID, me included, are going to ring tomorrow because the office is closed today, seems like NTU have f**ked up pretty bad here.
