    WHAT HAPPENS TO SOMEBODY WHO HOLDS DUAL NATIONALITY BRITISH AND ANOTHER ONE    AND WHO HAD TAKEN A BID STUDENT LOAN AND GOT HIS OR HER DEGREE AND THEN DISSAPPEAR AND GIVE UP HIS OR HER BRITISH NATIONALITY/PASPORT NOT RENEWED AND CARRY ON USING HIS OR HER OTHER NATIONALITY PASSPORT AND NEVER  VISIT THE UK AGAIN

    CAN THAT PERSON GET AWAY WITH NEVER HAVING TO REPAY THAT STUDENT LOAN ?

    THE WORST PART OF THIS AND MOST SICKENING THING THOSE PEOPLE IN THE GOVERNMENT WHO HAVE MADE THOSE STUPID LAWS  HAD 100%  FREE UNIVERSITY EDUCATION THEMSELVES

    I DO HOPE THE LABOUR GOVERNMENT CANCEL/ABOLISH THIS    THE MOMENT THEY GET IN

    AND SORT OUT THE UNIVERSAL CREDIT THING TOO ONCE AND FOR ALL.

    I BLAME THE PEOPLE THEMSELVES FOR THE WAY THEY CAST THEIR VOTE AT THE BALLOT BOX.

    SO CARRY ON AND SUFFER.

    Nationality is not a condition of repayment, why would you think it was?

    Student loans are repayable for overseas, the slc even publishes a table of repayments from overseas countries that adjusts for the costs of living. Go overseas and not repay and it will be a debt and your loan account will be in arrears, so the debt will never be written off. Unless you can tell the future, you won’t know if you ever want to return to the UK.

    I'm afraid it was a Labour government who introduced tuition fees in the first place.

    Save your time, @Anna_Mc_Kinnon is a troll, or in their words 'A senior student doing advanced research on far eastern ladies who marry older western men'

    I can now get a commercial loan at a cheaper interest rate than my student loan is charging me. I'm so tempted to stop paying this rip off and save myself some money. 7.8% is ridiculous.
