Student finance changing the amount paid to the OU part way through a term

Options
Hi,

I got a letter out of the blue today from SFE saying that the total amount to be paid to the OU is £1436 which only covers 1 module. I'm studying two. The entitlement I had when I was accepted in June was £2786.

Has this ever happened to anyone? And what was the reason? I'm hoping its something simple like the OU haven't confirmed my attendance to them on one of my modules so they've reassessed. But I'm worried (obviously) it won't be that. Any experiences anyone can share? They're not open today so I'll have to somehow find time during work on Monday to call them. Just what I needed on top of a full time job and 50% study.
