Internet, TV and phone

• Internet

  All bedrooms in halls of residence have free access to the University's wireless service 'Eduroam'. For information on how to connect, please visit our support pages.

  If you experience issues, please contact the IT Service Desk by phoning +44 (0)1334 46 3333 or emailing itservicedesk@st-andrews.ac.uk. You can also find an IT Help Point in the Main Library.

• Phone

  Telephones are provided in the entrance hallway of Residences for emergency use. You should check with reception staff where the nearest phone is.

• TV licence

  You need to purchase a TV license to watch or record live TV programmes on any channel or to download or watch BBC programmes on iPlayer. 

  You will need a TV license regardless of what device you watch it on. This could include, for example, computers, phones, and game consoles. 

  If you live in a residence that provides TVs in rooms or shared communal kitchens, you will still need to provide a TV license to watch programmes on these.

  If you watch TV without a license, you could risk prosecution and a heavy penalty plus legal costs.

  See information for students on TV licensing.
