    Ask the university to hold on a while until you get your student loan. They will more than likely allow this.

    Should normally get added overnight from when you activate it but that only happens on working days. So if you were to ask for them to activate it tomorrow you wouldn't get it until next Wednesday due to the Bank Holiday.

    helpful tips
    it's spelt d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y
    there - 'in or at that place'
    their - 'owned by them'
    they're - 'they are'
    it's bought not brought (i just bought my chicken a suit from that new shop for £6.34)
  • thanks for your replies guys. went in today there said they would ring me when its activated and hopefully 2morro i should be able to go in with my passport and get it over the counter. :)
