I recently checked my student loan statement & two years after I left uni another tuition charge of over £1000 was added to my account? Can they do this? Shall I write & complain. I have no idea if they were due that or not. Any help Please?

  • Why not find out what year the amount relates to before complaining? Picking up the phone tends to be the easiest way to do this!

    I did ring & discuss it but I felt like they were fobbing me off a bit. They said that my uni forgot to ask for money from student loans!? so then have charged it years later. Can they do this? I still can't double check the payments & costs at my end.

    If they cannot answer your query satisfactorily by phone then I would write to them and ask for an explanation of the item that has appeared on your statement.
    You might also need to ask them for full details of what tuition fees make up your loan - and then possibly contact your Uni to see what the full tuition fees were.
