This is the exact wording off their secure email that everyone would have got - some other holders may have a similar disclaimer too...
"Please note that due to the fact your Shares are held in a pooled nominee account any scaling back of Excess elections may not be on the same terms as those announced by the Company. You may therefore receive a greater or lower percentage of your Excess application than that announced by the Company. If you apply for Shares in excess of your Basic Entitlement and your election is scaled back, cash will be refunded to your Hargreaves Lansdown account on receipt from the Registrar and we do not have a firm date for this."
