I called up Guys when my eldest was there to complain about the halls (which were a disgrace). The jobsworth at the other end shrivelled in to a small ball and started begging for mercy. And it got fixed - in that the people who were supposed to be looking after the reception started looking after the reception instead of sleeping on the job, or whatever they were doing.Kirstie said:Not true! Parents have very little sway with universities, in my experience. We only ever dealt with students, because they are independent adults, and can look after themselves. An interfering parent was always given short shrift, not least by me. In fact it was policy not to speak to parents where i used to work.

- an account established by a broker, under the provisions of license law, for the purpose of holding funds on behalf of the broker's principal or some other person until the consummation or termination of a transaction, or
- a trust account held in the borrower's name to pay obligations such as property taxes and insurance premiums.
