A decision on student finance, your ov entitlement or diploma recognition.
Your student finance is stopped, you must repay an amount because you earned too much on the side, your ov card turned out to still be active and a fine is accumulating, or your foreign diploma is not recognised. Students rarely have money set aside and the amounts pile up faster than you think, while the six-week deadline simply keeps running.
This front door is written for a younger audience, in plain language and on mobile. You submit the decision, answer a few questions, and find out for free whether an objection has a chance. If so, you get the objection letter with the correct reference and the address.
What it does
Reading out the decision
Which academic year it concerns, which amount and on what grounds — always presented to you for confirmation.
The chances check
For each type of decision what matters: is the reference date correct, is the side income amount correct, has the ov card been demonstrably stopped.
The objection letter
Brief and to the point, with the customer number and the reference included, so DUO can link it to the correct file.
For whom
- Students with a student finance recovery
- Former students with an ov fine after graduation or dropping out
- People with a foreign diploma that has not been recognised
Where it is found
Search behaviour is informal and mobile: "duo fine ov card objection", "student finance repay side income", "diploma not recognised". Peaks around the start and end of the academic year.
Frequently asked questions
I forgot to stop my ov card. Is filing an objection worthwhile?
Sometimes. If you can prove that you actually didn't use the card or that something went wrong in stopping it, there is grounds. If you simply forgot, the chance is small and we'll tell you that.
Do I have to pay immediately?
An objection does not automatically suspend payment. You can ask DUO for a payment arrangement; that is separate from your objection.
How this platform is built
Like every Theos Group platform: on one shared foundation, in own management, with its own automatic administrator — here Case — that runs the daily rounds, reports disruptions and writes the daily report. What we learn with one system is implemented across all others the following week.
