    Thankfully this was simply a phone call to ask them to look at it again, after the original award was coming to it's end.
    No paperwork thankfully, the forms are enough!

    Well done only_mee and congratulations :T, it's very stressful. Yes it can be done and it's good of you to share the good news. I too had a reconsideration recently (I wrote to them) and was successful.
