HSBC - Reclaimed Charges - Enough? HELP NEEDED

I recently (after a 60 min phone call) managed to reclaim 6 months worth of charges from HSBC added to my current account based on "suffering from financial hardship".

I have a letter from HSBC admitting as such but I am now wondering does their admittance entitle me to significantly more then the 6 months charges they have already refunded?

Any help would be greatly aprpeciated.

Thanks.

    Er, no.

    They have assessed your claim based on your financial hardship and have decided a refund accordingly.

    Thanks,
    I wasn't sure whether the hardship payment was based on an assessment of if there was an absolute timescale that should be kept to.
