Any proble ms or ques tions? The the Studen lovely peo ts’ Guild A ple in d vice Unit ca informatio n give advi n and sup ce, port on a w housing q hole host ueries. Th o f e office in Monday – the Forum Friday and is open there is also St Luke’s a service at Mondays, Wednesday See their w s and Frid eb pages ays. at www.e advice for xe terguild.c more detai om/ ls on conta frequently cting them asked ques an d tions.

1.Meet your neighbours - pop over and say hello or invite them round for a cup of tea. Get to know them BEFORE you throw a house warming party. Friendly neighbours can watch your house while you’re away and lend a potato peeler!

2. Check your inventory - your landlord should provide you with an inventory (if they don’t, make sure you write your own) so that you can both agree on the initial contents and state of the house!

3. Read your meters - if your gas and electricity bills are quarterly you’ll need to do this asap so you don’t risk getting charged for the previous tenants fuel use. Contact your gas and electricity providers (see contacts on back page) to give them the reading and ask them to put the names of all the tenants on the bill. Check your meter even if your bills are included!

4.Take date-stamped photos of every room - especially anything that’s not in good, clean condition. This means you’ll have evidence of what the house was like when you got the keys, which could save you trouble later.

5. Do you have the correct bins or have you ‘inherited’ rubbish? - sometimes students move into a new property with either the wrong refuse bins or no bins at all! Check what you’re entitled to by looking at the refuse section of this guide. New bins can be ordered by contacting the City Council on: 01392 265010. If your bins are already full of waste at the start of tenancy, it is important to ask your Landlord/agent to remove the material. Contact the Student Wardens on streetwise@ex.ac.uk for advice on challenging waste issues.

6. Something wrong? - if it’s a dodgy doorknob or a window that won’t shut properly – inform your landlord IN WRITING and keep a copy. List exactly what’s wrong and agree a reasonable deadline for when it should be sorted.

7. Gas Safety Certificate - your landlord is legally obliged to make sure all the appliances in the house are safe. Check you’ve got a copy of this!

8. Make sure to pay your TV license if you watch TV live on any device or catch up programmes on iPlayer. Unsure if you need one? check: www.tvlicensing.co.uk

The best way to stay safe at night is to stick with your friends. It doesn’t happen often, but students have been assaulted in the past when walking home alone Always remember: •D uring darkness you are safest in well-lit and busy areas. Avoid badly lit car parks, underground walkways and open areas.

• Cover

up expensive-looking jewellery, mobile phones, keys, cash and cards.

•G et a taxi - save some cash for the end of the night so you can be brought straight home - it’s much safer.

Please be aware that official taxis will display a green or yellow license number.

• I f you find yourself in trouble the best form of defence is to get away and head towards busier areas.

• I f you are trapped bring attention to yourself and make as much noise as possible by shouting or screaming.

•C ALL 999 as soon as it is possible to do so and never feel ashamed to report something.

If you have the week’s shopping to carry, or want to avoid the rain catch one of the regular buses which run from the city centre to the Streatham and St Luke’s campuses. The University-funded D bus service runs from morning until late at night every 15 minutes from Monday to Saturday and every 30 minutes on Sundays. You can purchase a discounted Unirider season ticket online at www.buymyunirider.com or check out www.exeter.ac.uk/ sustainability/travel/buscoach for more information.

Choosing to travel around on foot or by bike is a great way of keeping active and enjoying the health and wellbeing benefits that physical activity brings. It also saves money and helps to reduce local congestion and air quality issues.

Get Active

now but the ems far away We know it se be time to and it’ll soon year will fly by e are some use again. Her leave your ho before… e who’ve fled hints from thos

1. Change your address 2-3 weeks before the move so you don’t miss out on any essential post. You could have your mail re-directed, you could also leave the next residents your new address so they could forward anything you’ve forgotten to change.

2. Unsubscribe the gas, electricity, water, phone etc, otherwise

they’ll keep charging you. Try to call them as soon as you know your moving out date and take meter readings on the day you leave.

3. Check the photos from when you moved in to ensure that everything is still in order. This includes going through the house inventory.

4. Too much stuff? Old pots and pans you don’t need? There are collection points in University managed accommodation at the end of the year. Alternatively, take your items to one of Exeter’s many charity shops

5. Good clean fun! Book a day with all your housemates to clean up and put furniture back in the right place. Leaving it all for the last person is not what you want to do! But remember - at the end of term use your ‘Students on the Move’ stickers to make sure that you don’t get fined for putting your rubbish out after collection.

Email streetwise@exeter.ac.uk to place an order. If you missed the

last bin day or want other advice go to www.exeter.gov.uk/recycling.

6. Speak to the landlord to set up an inspection date when you are still around to inspect the house together.

7. If you are the lead tenant, make sure you are contactable after moving out so that you can receive information about the return of deposits. Make sure your landlord or Estate Agents know how to get a hold of you. If there are any problems involving the return of your deposit or additional charges from your landlord/agent, contact the Students’ Guild Advice Unit for info.
