Cancellation policy

Please review the property's terms.

  • Cancellation Policy
  • Cancellation Policy

    1. A student has 14 days from the day of booking a room on the website to accept their tenancy agreement and sign. If they fail to sign their tenancy agreement within this period, they lose their £100 advanced rent payment, and the room automatically goes back on the website to be sold.
    2. If a student cancels within 14 days of booking their room, the £100 advanced rent payment will be returned to them around 4 weeks.
    3. If a student signs their tenancy agreement and wants to cancel, they are legally bound by the terms of the contract and will need to find a student to ‘take over’ their tenancy agreement for the full term of the tenancy remaining. They will not receive their £100 advanced rent payment back.
    4. Students who have signed their tenancy agreement, who are applying to get into university and miss their grades, have to supply evidence to CityBlock within 7 days of receiving the result from the university in order to cancel their tenancy agreement and receive their £100 advanced rent payment back. This is only for first years and not students who are already at university. Students who are already at university would need to find a student to ‘take over’ their tenancy agreement and would lose their £100 advanced rent payment.

Do You Need a Guarantor?

Most landlords and letting agents require a UK-based guarantor. Without one, you may be asked to pay your full year's rent upfront. To help students navigate this, we've partnered with Housing Hand, which can provide a recognised certificate of rental guarantee, giving both you and your landlord peace of mind.

It's worth knowing that several of our student halls don't require a UK-based guarantor at all, allowing students to pay rent in convenient instalments instead. To find out which properties qualify and how to get started, reach out to our team. We're happy to guide you through the booking process from start to finish.

    I feel very safe living here and secondly the location is exceptionally good, both close to the school and the city centre, which I really like. Also the environment at cityblock is very nice with all the amenities, entertainment and a lounge for watching films. The staff are very kind and helpful and the weekly cleaning is also very good and responsible. Overall I really enjoyed staying here.
