SET M application varied to FLR M - but no refund

[meemyself&I]

Apologies firstly as i do not know how to add the previous conversation as a link, otherwise i would have done so, to give an understanding of previous conversation i had on here, with sushdmehta and someone else (can't remember the name now).

Anyway, i made a mistake by applying firstly for SET M, instead of applying for FLR M. After it was brought to my attention by senior members on here, i decided to vary my application within a week of sending the wrong application. I did not hear anything from them until i received my FLR M biometric card which was approved last week.

Now that i have been granted the FLR M visa, and today i have received my documents back, included in the pack is my SET M application which was sent in wrongly. On the payments section, which has now been stapled in as the front page, handwritten across this page it says "VOID".

In my opinion i made a variation within the timescale as the SET M was not yet decided. A new fee was deducted for the FLR M visa, even though i stated on a letter which was sent to them asking that they take the money from the £991.00 which has already been paid, and this is what the guidance advises as well.

Now i want to find out if i can get the £991.00 back, as they have not mentioned anything about it.

Any advice will be good.
