I am a home student. International students in my department and the wider university get a better deal 'cos they pay about £10000 a year! Also, the uni paid ME to do the research and think they have the right to squeeze me for everything they can get for the peanuts they give out!

Just to let you know that the complaints officer concluded that there was no evidence of poor academic support or bullying. Nonetheless, I have been granted a change of supervisors. I'm not really surprised by the outcome - the university is not about to admit that they have employed cowboys to run the department. But by granting a change of team, they have, by default admitted that there are some losers in the university. I think they worked out that if they don't let me have what I want ie a new team, the s*%" will hit the fan and it will be very nasty! I had my first meeting with my new team and they are the real macoy!
