I'm equally anxious :/ I paid mine Thursday but my offer said it would expire on the 21st. My status still says awaiting deposit so I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be doing? :/

Good luck! Hopefully they'll explain what's going on. I emailed them on Friday but no reply as of yet, if I get no reply I may have to phone them!!😱

I paid my deposit Friday (when I got my offer) after I finished work. It has to be done by tomorrow but it still hasn't gone through. Has anyone found anything out about why it's taking so long?

Thankfully my accommodation has been confirmed now, but I also got a reply from the accommodation office and this is what they said: "We do allow some additional days for the deposit to arrive, so there is no need to worry. Before we even think about cancelling offers, we always try to make contact with a student to ask if they've made the payment. Payments form abroad and bank transfers do take up to 7 days, so we are always very accommodating. " hope this helps :smile:

It's an absolute nightmare isn't it?

Now all I have to worry about is my Mom being able to scrape the rest of the money to put towards my accomodation. It's not going down too well >_<

Yup! Pretty good way to describe it XD I have no idea when the student loans get paid in so I can pay the first installment in September:/ my mum wouldn't have that kind of money to lend me! In a bit of a panic haha 😆

Same, I don't know exactly when it goes in either.

My Mom has to put over £700 towards my accomodation fees (like we can afford it), but the way they have made it so we have to pay is madness. Long story short, my mom has to pay £1200, but then get's just over £400 back in April with the last instalment. It makes no sense at all how they've done it. We're now struggling to find the money for the first instalment. I'll be lucky to make it to Uni alive XD
