Student Finance England has advised that they will never ask a student to confirm their bank details by email or and text message. If a student receives a suspicious message, they should report it to SLC鈥檚 Financial Crime Prevention Unit immediately by emailing FCPU_Alerts@slc.co.uk or calling the dedicated hotline on 0300 100 0059. To help to prevent scammers getting hold of your details remove your email address if it鈥檚 online or hide it on social networking sites. If you have already responded to an email and given your bank details change your bank account password immediately and contact the SLC鈥檚 Financial Crime Prevention Unit on the contact details shown above.

Please note this will not affect you if you do not receive funding for living costs from the Student Loans Company.
