LPU refund pending for months — they keep sending me the same “15–20 working days” reply every time I follow up
I honestly never thought I’d have to make a Reddit post about this, but I genuinely don’t know what else to do now.
I took admission in LPU, but unfortunately my father passed away on 24 May 2026. Because of the situation at home after that, I had to withdraw from my course and request a refund.
I started the withdrawal process and there was an issue with the withdrawal date initially. I contacted LPU about it, and the withdrawal date was eventually corrected to 11 June 2026.
After that, I continued with the refund process and submitted the required details. My bank details were accepted on 14 July 2026.
I kept waiting for the refund.
Then I received communication from LPU saying that my refund had been approved and that I should receive it within 15–20 working days.
So I waited.
The 15–20 working days passed, but I still didn’t receive the refund.
I followed up with LPU again.
And this is where it gets ridiculous.
Every time I follow up, I basically get the same “15–20 working days” response again.
Not an actual update on where my refund is.
Not a proper explanation for the delay.
Not a clear date by which I’ll receive it.
Just the same 15–20 working days.
I have emailed them multiple times and followed up repeatedly. I have also raised complaints because I genuinely didn’t know what else I was supposed to do.
It has now been months since I started this process.
The most frustrating part is that I’m not asking them for anything extra. This is a refund of money I had already paid to the university. I understand that refunds can take time, but if you have already told me 15–20 working days and that period has passed, then repeating the same timeline every time I ask for an update is not really a solution.
I’m honestly exhausted from chasing this.
LPU can respond when it comes to admissions, promotions and university rankings, but when a student is waiting for their money, getting an actual answer seems impossible.
If anyone here has gone through an LPU refund issue, especially one where they kept repeating the 15–20 working days timeline, please tell me what you did and whether you eventually received your refund.
I genuinely just want my money back and a proper answer.
