Review summary

Amber is praised for its ease of use, intuitive UI, a wide range of housing options, quick and helpful support, and a smooth, time-saving booking experience. However, recurring concerns center on financial trust: several users report refund disputes over a supposed refundable booking fee, slow refunds, and accusations of scams. A few reviews also note reliability issues with the app/service. Overall, it’s a strong tool for student housing searches, but trust and reliability problems have affected a subset of users.

Pros

Easy to use with intuitive UI
Wide selection of student housing options
Prompt, helpful customer service and a smooth booking process
App runs smoothly and saves time
Stress-free and guided search experience for finding housing

Cons

Concerns about refunds and a booking fee: perceived misleading refund policy and slow/refund delays, with accusations of scams
Reliability issues with the app or service during use
Cancellation delays or tactics to avoid refund (dragging out cancellation) leading to further refund issues

2025-03-01	Yz*****	I recently used the Amber app to find student places in Newcastle student accommodation, and I was impressed by how easy and straightforward the process was. The platform offers a wide selection of options, making it simple to find a place that suits my needs. The service was prompt, and booking was a breeze. That said, I did experience a few reliability issues that could use some attention for a smoother overall experience. Nevertheless, Amber is still a solid choice for students searching for accommodation in Newcastle.

2025-01-24	Pr*****	I was extremely worried about finding a perfect accommodation during my time at Uni before I got to know about Amber. One of their team members told me about Lansing Student Housing and from browsing till booking, he was there at every step. My accommodation is so close to campus, which makes going to classes super easy. The building itself is quiet, secure, and well-kept. I’m really happy with my choice.

2024-12-12	pa*****	They claim on the website the $300 fee you pay to book is fully refundable no matter what then when you try to cancel your application they present the $300 as a “fee” you have to pay for your cancellation. Even though they initially claimed even if you cancel your booking you’d get your money back. they also have a way of dragging out your request to cancel the booking so that it passes the required time you have to actually be refunded. Low key scammers.
