Below is a summary of the apartment cancellation policy. Please note that the policy is subject to real-time changes, so refer to the official website and the contract for the most up-to-date information.

I. Cancellation Policy Before the Contract Starts

Cooling-Off Period

    • Cancel without liability within 48 hours: You can apply for cancellation via email within 48 hours after signing the contract.
    • Exceptional situations (losing the right to the cooling-off period):
                 

No Place, No Pay

    • Full refund conditions: You need to submit a university rejection letter before the contract starts, and the reason for cancellation is solely due to not meeting the academic requirements.
    • No refund situations:
                 

No Visa, No Pay

    • Full refund conditions: You need to submit a visa rejection letter at least 5 days before the contract starts.
    • No refund situations:
                 

II. Cancellation Policy After the Contract Starts

Replacement Tenant

    • Successfully finding a replacement tenant: After the new tenant signs a complete contract, pays the rent, and moves in, the original tenant can cancel the tenancy. A £75 administration fee will be deducted from the refund.
    • Failing to find a replacement tenant: The original tenant is responsible for paying the full rent for the entire contract period.

Early Termination

    • Negotiation between both parties: This is only applicable in special circumstances and requires management approval. Additional fees may be charged.
    • Termination due to breach of contract: If the tenant violates the contract terms, the apartment management has the right to terminate the contract. The tenant is still responsible for paying the remaining rent and related fees.

III. Cancellation Process

  • After the contract comes into effect, you are responsible for the rent or need to find a replacement tenant.
