This would be something to do with the tuition fee's amount. Are you sure you've been awarded the correct amount for tuition fee's? Have you spoken to SFE?

I'd get the college to explain exactly why they think you have been awarded the wrong amount. Before you go any further, you need to understand exactly what the college thinks is a problem and why. Then do as Knalchemist suggests, and phone Student Finance to find out their view and see if they can help resolve the problem.

It's possible that the college has misunderstood your circumstances or the info they've had from SF.

I phoned SFE who have said it is the college saying the tuition amount is wrong, its to high. I am only taking the summer term as i was very ill last year and had to defer my dissertation.
My college has said hopefully it should be sorted out by the end of next week.

That sounds more hopeful. At least people are working to resolve it now. Good luck!
