Tuition fee fraud
The Higher Education sector is seeing rising levels of fraud in relation to the payment of tuition fees. Please do not pay your tuition fee through a ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ˜third party facilitatorÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™, particularly if that facilitator approaches you direct and offers a discount. A ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ˜third party facilitatorÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™ could also be someone known to you, such as another student, or a former student at the same university.
You should only ever pay your fee direct to the University using our authorised payment methods.
Chinese students have been particularly targeted. The City of London PoliceÂÌñ»»ÆÞ™s Dedicated Card and Payment Crime Unit (DCPCU) has issued a document which provides further information.
Please stay alert and if you have any concerns please contact the Student Accounts team ÂÌñ»»ÆÞ“ studentaccountsteam@plymouth.ac.uk.
