see what they say,
but if they will not change it or you dont want the hassle, come to the uk b4 your visa expires and you will probably have to apply for FLR (probably be valid until you've been in the uk 2yrs or might be even valid for a whole 2yrs) before you could apply for ILR, its another form to fill in and more money.

but hopefully the embassy will change the dates
