Petition to allow students the choice of a 40 week contract at The Heights (Birmingham)

"i agree with the petition, stop ripping off students!"

"В"

"Sort it out!"

"y not just offer both 52 and 42 week contracts"

"I just saw the Birmingham Unite halls on TV. I was amazed when you said they were charging 82 a week. That is incredibly cheap. This is the real world now, and its about time you lot started to realise that. My message to Unite is simple. Kick the student"

"Unite r just ridiculous"

"I have already paid 4500 pounds in rent and internet prices this year. And had a loan of 3000 pounds. This in the final year where i cant work either... The facilities and state of the building is atrocious too for that price i could have got a nice hosue"

"About time"

"If Unite do not consider giving students a 41-week contract they will face an already increasing level of resentment from the student body in Birmingham and elsewhere. Students have the market power. They have many private housing and campus accommodation"

"Please lower the price or offer shorter contract"

"I've just signed up to a 51 week contract in London, Somerset Court - 7000+ for the year. 140 a week. Not Keen."

"Costs of new accomodation much lower than heights no reasons for hike in price!"

"i wanted to live in the heights but the price was too high and as a result, i am now living in a small village outside coventry and am forced to commute to university every day. A 3 hour round trip!!! Bring the prices down!!"

"Stupidly expensive, especially for for low quality recieved, hospitality team is a joke (no help whatsoever), Window in lounge broke in october 05, not fixed at end of march 06, so no window for whole of winter, then charged 225 for the service. Door hand"

"I disagree- I think you are having a whinge when you could have chosen cheaper digs elsewhere. I cannot believe the 40 week option could ever work for the landlord. I have seen the accommodation and iit is of a very good standard. You are a whinger!"
