Are you entitled to a student accommodation rent cut or refund?
There is no mandated Government position forcing student accommodation providers to issue refunds or reductions in rental rates.
Prime Minister Boris Johnson last week said the Government was looking into ways it could offer additional support to students.
He said: “I think we need to look very hard at the deal that students are getting.
“We need to see what more we can do, frankly, to support students and to help them in what has been a very, very difficult time.
“Of course, at the moment they are not able to go back to their universities, except in a very few key practical courses, and I know how frustrating that is and I know the financial frustrations that that entails.
“I can tell you that we are looking at that now and that you’ll be hearing more about that from the Education Secretary.”
