Cancellation Policy
What if I sign/signed my contract on or before 31st July?

Up to and including the 31st July, you can sign your contract but then request to cancel within 3 days of signing your contract. This is known as your 3 day cooling off period (as once you sign the contract and surpass this 3 day period, youre tied into the contract). To inform us that you wish to cancel, you must email us within your 3 day cooling off period. The Sales Team would then check youre within your 3 day cooling off period, and if you are theyd let you know this and would send you a cancellation request form which you must print out, sign by hand and return back to the above email address.
If however you signed your contract on or before 31st July, but you request to cancel outside of your 3 day cooling off period, then you will be tied into the contract until a suitable replacement tenant is found and clause 9.3 in your contract is met. You would however still need to inform us that you wish to cancel. The Sales Team would send you a cancellation request form which you must print out, sign by hand and return to the above email address.
What if I sign/signed my contract on or after 1st August?
If you sign your contract on or after 1st August, you will be immediately tied into the contract as we do not offer a cooling off period on or after this date. You will be unable to cancel your booking unless a suitable replacement student is found and clause 9.3 in your contract is met.

However, if a suitable replacement tenant is found for your room (and clause 9.3 in your contract is met) after your contract start date, we will release you from your contract from the date that the new tenants contract starts.
