How long does it take to receive the deposit refund?
Refunds are normally processed within 28 working days of cancellation.

You remain liable for rent on a weekly basis, including any part-week, until the room is re-let.
When will I be released from the agreement after late cancellation?
You will only be released once the room has been successfully re-let and any required release payment or fees have been paid.
