    Thats download speed is very odd!!!? Considering the speed is supposed to be 2mbps, just tested ours and its just over 3 but its not making sense cause it struggles to stream a youtube video. Our phones can get access but our laptops cant, had a friend here earlier and he couldnt log on either

    bfaccess is the password

    And what about the login? When the brookfield student village page comes up asking for login and password

    The room in Brookfield is still available :) Ye'd be sharing with three first year girls. The room has an ensuit and is one of the bigger ones in the apartment as well. Not quite a double bed but it's a pretty big single. The girls are all lovely too! Text 0871172215 or email starshipranger@live.ie or PM me or turn up at my house or whatever, you'd just have to call Brookfield, give them my name and they'll sort you out with it. And to be clear, no the room isn't free of charge, I'm just not living there anymore :P

    This is the ad on the noticeboard at the Stables? Why all the shouting :pac:

    I got an email from Dromroe telling me to do the online "induction"...

    It's my fourth year living here, I think I know where to go to get my key when I check in thanks, and if I didn't know, teaching me in Week 4 isn't much use is it? :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 11,553 ✭✭✭✭Copper_pipe


    Brookfield internet back down to 2mb.

    It was good while it lasted.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,277 ✭✭✭Chris Martin


    Didn't enjoy the peak...
    Mine is actually best during the day,
    At night, when you'd think there aren't many on it, it just keeps disconnecting you :/

    Hey guys,

    So I'm on Erasmus until the second semester and need a place to live for when I get back. One thing is: I won't be back till 1st February but I am willing to pay January rent just to have the room if no-one is living there.

    does anyone know of any rooms that are free for second semester? I need to get this sorted before I even think of coming back to UL.

    Thanks!

    Please send this on to anyone if you know that they need to fill a room.


  • Registered Users Posts: 493 ✭✭irelandjoe


    Might not be of use but I have 1 room available from now. We do hope to fill it before Jan but contact me should you not have any luck.

    Hi,

    i am a 2 semester Erasmus student and am currently living in Groody. The thing is I agreed to stay here for 1 year, however I am really not happy with this place and would really like to live somewhere else in the 2nd semester.

    Has anyone ever left a student accommodation early? Would I have to pay the rent for the 2nd semester? Would I get my deposit back?

    Thank you so much for your help! :)

    Whatever about getting your deposit back or not. Do not pay for rent for second semester, if you will not be living there.

    There be a new wave of students moving in next term anyway.

    Best to inform receptionist as soon as you can so that they can advertise the room for the next term.
