Ok thanks, i was a bit concerned because i know another member on this forum who sent documents in response to a hold letter, got a confirmation email from BHC acknowleding their documents and that they would be linked with their application where a decision would be made etc...

And i haven't received any email from them, just a text from tcs that they have signed and collected.

If your self employed please make sure your tax is paid and up to date
That's what went wrong with me. I hadn't paid any tax (as you can pay till January 2014) but now I've paid it and waiting for the paperwork to come from HMRC as the BHC requested original documents and not copied printed from online
