Seat Ibiza battery is always dying after only 1 week

Car: Seat Ibiza
Variant: 1.4 Hatchback
Model Year: 2009
Categories: Electrics, ECU, Warnings & Lights
Seat Ibiza 2009 1.4 SE keeps dying when left alone for around a week. Never used to happen but now a regular occurrence when I leave and come back for uni. The battery has been changed twice so hard to imagine any fault there. When I drive it regularly for two/three weeks car is sound so not sure the alternator is the problem either. Would really appreciate some help if anyone has experienced this problem

You will need to get battery and alternator both LOAD tested . If passing those tests , you will then need to check for a parasitic drain .Any week cells and battery wont fully hold a charge and will drain
