We’re sure you have some questions so take a look at our most asked…
It’s absolutely right to have lots of questions about living with Here!… here’s the best place to start quizzing us on how to book and what living with us is really like.
You can find a copy of our booking terms and conditions here.
Simply click the book button on the room type you want, you can then follow the instructions on the screen to secure your room. If you have any issues or questions, please get in touch with the Residence Team at your chosen location.
Absolutely! You can choose the floor, flat and room numbers should you wish to. Our Residence Teams can advise you on the best room to suit your needs.
Of course. For locations with cluster flats, booking with your friends can easily be arranged. You just need to let us know who you want to live with and we can do our best to put you together. Please note, this is subject to availability and more likely to be possible the sooner you book.
We don’t give out names for privacy reasons, but you can get a better idea of who you’ll be living with via our residents groups that are shared prior to check-in or by asking your site team to provide you with information such as gender, year and uni.
Around two months before the big day, you will be invited to book a move-in slot. You can choose the time that works best for you. If you have specific needs around accessibility or travel arrangements, please let us know at this stage.
Unlike other providers, we do not ask for a deposit to secure your booking. We do, however, require an advance rent payment which will be deducted from your first rent instalment (think of it like a present to yourself when September rolls around!).
We work on a 5 day “cooling off” period. This means that should you need to, you can cancel your booking within 5 days of signing your tenancy agreement, as long as you have not yet moved in.
If you need to cancel after the “cooling off” period, we’ll allow it in certain circumstances, like if your UK visa is refused or you don’t make the grades for your chosen university. Just make sure to send us your UCAS notification or visa refusal documentation within 72 hours of receiving it.
You can also transfer your obligations to someone else if you find a replacement tenant who’s eligible to live in the property. We’ll need to run some checks to confirm their eligibility, but once everything’s in order, they’ll take over the tenancy agreement.
Simply contact the Residence Team via our contact form to make a viewing appointment. You will receive a confirmation email if the viewing time is confirmed.
We have permanent accessible and temporary adaptable access rooms available to suit your needs. For more information about these rooms, please contact your Residence Team directly.
If it’s late, please contact the Residence Team at your location as they will be able to advise you.
You can pay by logging in to the Concurrent Portal using your reference number and password. Payments can be made via direct debit or bank transfer.
As an international student, you can pay via bank transfer (Transfermate) or credit card (please note this may incur a transaction fee). For more information, refer to your booking documents or contact your Residence Team.
We want you to love your time living with us, but we understand we might not always get it right. We take all complaints seriously and will try our best to fix any issues as soon as we are made aware of them. For residents of our UK residences please visit our complaints procedure. For our IRE residences, please take a look at Fresh’s complaints procedure.
