Student Living On Cobden, Melbourne

Rent

Rent is to be paid as per the Tenancy agreement, and must always be in advance.
All rental payments are due by the 1st day of each month. If you have any difficulties
paying your rent on time, we encourage you speak with a UniLodge customer service
staff member or Manager immediately.

There are a number of simple and easy ways to pay your rent at UniLodge on Cobden
using the DEFT system. You will require an Australian bank account to access the DEFT
system.

If you wish to make payment via Credit Card or BPay:

• Complete your details at the top of the application and tick the credit card / BPay
box. Return the DEFT form to reception and you will receive a reference number
and instructions on how to make payment. (A BPay payment is made through
your internet or telephone banking from your Australian Bank Account). A
surcharge applies for credit card payments.

If you wish to make payment via Direct Debit from your Australian Bank Account:

• All personal banking details on the form must be clearly completed and returned
to reception. DEFT will not be able to recognise your payment if all details are not
complete.

• The security code is a 6 digit number that you will have to make up and
remember. It is used for security purposes only when making your payment. Do
not use the PIN number you use for making normal transactions on your bank
account.

• This form will take approximately 5 to 7 working days to be fully processed or you
can register yourself on the website (www.deft.com.au) once you have received
your DEFT reference number and instructions from reception.

Payment of Rent must be received on or before the due date, which is every 1st day
of each month.

Once you have entered into an offer and acceptance agreement with the property, you are legally bound by the Residential Tenancies Act and deemed to be in a leasing arrangement.

We understand that from time-to-time issues can arise with your entry into Australia.

Cancellation without penalty is possible if:

• you fail to meet student status requirement;

• you cannot enter Australia due to border closures or restrictions

If you are unable to arrive on your selected date due to flight cancellations, we may be able to move your lease commencement date. Depending on the length of delay, there may be some financial penalties incurred. This is handled on a case-by-case basis. If your flight is delayed, please email us

Cancellation due to:

• providing false or misleading information during your application or booking process
