The most greedy tertiary institution ever!

The most greedy tertiary institution ever! When I first registered, I was told to pay R12,800 per month. However, this month, after my parents paid R12,800, they received a call from the financial department stating that we needed to pay an extra R5,000. I asked the student queries office for help, and they told me to email them my asylum seeker permit as proof that I am not an international student. I tried to call the financial department, but they completely ignored my calls. Why else would you place a number if they know they won't pick up? To make things worse, I recently checked with four people who are international students, and they said they pay R12,800 per month, and international students are supposed to pay R12,800 plus an extra R5,000. That’s how I realized the school is being greedy; they targeted me to pay an extra R5,000 after I had already paid the R12,800 monthly fees. This is nothing but greed!! Now they have even blocked my student portal, and I cannot see my results.
