PPI Refunded

Just received letter from Bank of Scotland confirming they are refunding me £860 including interest. However this case was previously passed to an external debt collector with an outstanding balance of £1100. Prior to getting confirmation of refund from BOS I contacted the company in question and they offered a reduced figure to settle debt.
My question is if they offered this settlement figure can i have the £860 used as the settlement figure if this is how much they ask for?
