Apply no earlier than 28 days before 25/10/13 and no later than 25/10/13.

seniors please.

They normally expect business bank statements as a second proof. My personal experience is, submit as many docs as possible rather than limiting the number of docs. In my case they didn't take the accountant's letter but took P&L, Corporation tax notice/payments, VAT reg cert, Incorp cert etc F...
