theguardian.com (https://archive.is/97XsD) -- Dozens of universities are facing legal action from more than 170,000 students seeking compensation after their studies were moved online during Covid-19.
Pre-action claim letters have been sent to 36 universities in England and Wales, including Bath, Bristol, Cardiff, Exeter, Imperial College London, Leeds, Liverpool and Warwick, on behalf of aggrieved students.
It follows a settlement last week between University College London and the Student Group Claim, representing 6,000 UCL students whose studies were affected by the pandemic.
The legal action is being brought under consumer law, which states that where a consumer pays for a service but is provided with a different service of lower value, they may be entitled to compensation.
