Alliance & Leicester 07/08 missed

Hi
I followed a link from this site to the A&L to apply for an 07/08 ISA by the 3rd April as that was given as their deadline. I filled in the form and sat back thinking I'd got in in time.
I've just got off the phone from A&L and they tell me that they closed 07/08 on Monday 1st, and what I've actually got is an 08/09 ISA. Nothing on the application form made this clear, and nothing in the confirmation email (which they didn't send me til Sunday 6th) made this clear - just the mention of 'Issue 4' which I had no way of associating with any particular year. They say there was something on the site, but the only thing I remember seeing was the bit about the 3rd.
I'm gutted - it seems I've permanently lost out on last year's tax free savings pot. Am I alone in this? Did I imagine the 3rd? Can anyone confirm how clear they made the Monday deadline?
