I filled my first name with surname in LBS application

I am an Indian passport holder. While applying for LBS application, it asked for First name (as shows in passport). In the Indian passport “surname” appears first. The actual name comes next under “Given name”. Thus I mentioned "Surname" as "First name" in the application. After successfully submitting the application, I got a notification from LBS where they are addressing my full name with surnames only. Something like 'Surname Surname'. Though I added preferred First name as my actual name, I am worried if this will cause any issue in processing my application. Also, in the applicant name, details are showing as proper name. Is there a way to apply for corrections in LBS application? Or will my application be rejected because of this?

Lay your worries to rest. It is an administrative issue. It will not affect the processing of your application and will certainly not lead to rejection on this count. You can send them a quick email to clarify this to them, and they will sort it out.
