My GTV stage 1 rejected

Hi Please my GTV application was rejected by The British Academy . The two checked boxes explaining reasons for rejection were
1. The reviewers felt that there was insufficient evidence within the application to demonstrate that the applicant could be consider a leader in their field.
2. The reviewers felt that the application did not demonstrate that the contributions to the UK’s research excellence and to wider society was of sufficient scale to merit endorsement for entry through the Global Talent route.
What got me confused and worried was that I got feedback for the Exceptional Talent but I applied for the Exceptional Promise. Instead of giving me feedback for the Exceptional Promise category which I applied for I got it for the Exceptional Talent category which I did not apply.
Should I go for a review or fresh application
Any advice?
Thanks

Hi
Please has anyone on this platform been endorced by The British Academy.
Please I would need to know the documents the person submitted.
I submitted 22 documents including my 3 page CV, PhD certificate, Recommendation letter, 1 fellowship award and 1 PhD scholarship award with several funding awards to attend international workshops and conferences and 20 peer review publications, Despite all these, I was rejected with the reason that I had insufficient documents to be considered a potential leader in my field.
Please can someone advise me on what I might have omitted to add.
Thanks

Hi guys
I later informed the Home office about the matter and they said they would contact the Endorsement body. So, they got back to me the same day and apologised noting that it was a mistake. They amended the rejection letter with their feedback in the appropriate category.
Thanks

Does the reject decision still hold for you?
