There needs to be good evidence and reasoned argument when your protest at the situation is made to INZ - don't fire off several small approaches.
A character waiver is something that can only be done when told by INZ in the course of their processing of a particular application. You can't do that for your SFV in retrospect. As Chris has said, you need all the facts, and only then can you launch what seems to be most appropriate - an appeal, or a complaint.
Thanks for your advise. I feel clear now
