You can cancel your booking up to 7 days after you accept your offer or pay your deposit, providing you have not already moved in to the property and the apartment will refund your security deposit in full. Deposits will normally be refunded within 28 working days of cancellation, however the legal obligation as a landlord is to secure all deposits with a third party protection scheme. In the event that your deposit has already been sent to the protection scheme by the time you cancel your booking, your refund could take up to 60 days to be refunded due to the protection scheme's processing period and your deposit refund will come directly from them - you will need your repayment ID which will be sent to you directly by the protection scheme. If the deposit has already been sent to the deposit protection scheme, then the apartment is unable to influence their processing time.

How do students look for Exeter student accommodation?

University Accommodation Services: Many universities, including the University of Exeter, offer accommodation services to assist students in finding suitable housing. 

 

Online Platforms: Students frequently use online platforms and websites dedicated to studio apartment Exeter. That's why I recommend using uhomes, an online platform dedicated to helping students find their perfect home away from home!

 

Social Media Groups: Many universities have official social media groups or pages where students can connect and share information, including accommodation listings. Students often create Facebook groups or join existing ones specifically to find Exeter halls of residence.
