They will then formally contact the Post Office to explain that the 'a' number is legitimate.
As far as I am aware there will be no cost for this, although you may have to provide a scaled Location Plan (1/200 or 1/500) to indicate the proprty under consideration.

It is the Local Authority that determines this as the above says. You will not have a problem getting them to do this PROVIDED the accommodation is separate, in that it is registered as a separate dwelling for Council Tax. My son lives in a flat called XYZ HOUSE ANNEXE, connected to the original XYZ HOUSE. Both are registered and his Annexe is in Property Band A. But the whole house is only one legal title for Land Registry purposes.
