As some of you may know, I've been suffering from financial issues, stemming partly from the University's lust for funds. The student loans company isn't playing ball, and neither is the university.
I called them today to offer an arrangement over the summer to cover my fees, but they're not interested. Any financial institution worth their salt would be fair enough to at least consider an offer like this, since it displays a willingness to pay up, but not the University of Portsmouth. It makes me wonder if they're struggling to pay their bills, since I can't imagine £1,200 making all that much difference to their coffers otherwise.
Instead, the University are doing what they do best. threatening to expel me tomorrow after sending me a letter that arrived on Saturday, giving me a grand total of ONE DAY to try to arrange payment. I've told them numerous times that I am currently suffering from severe depression, and I'm getting counseling and taking anti-depressant medication, but hey I guess it's not their problem.
Part of me wants to threaten to leave my blood on their hands, but I know that's blackmail.
Cam anyone help me out here? Advice would be greatly appreciated.
