I submitted my visit visa application on July 3rd for both myself and my spouse in the same application.

Unfortunately, when I received the Biometric request letter today I noticed my name goes 'FirstName Familyname Familyname' instead of 'FirstName MiddleName Familyname'

I double checked my IMM5257E and it was my error as I accidentally put my Given names as 'Firstname Familyname' instead of 'Firstname Middlename'

How can I get this corrected and get them to send me a new Biometrics letter with the corrected name?

Also can I give Biometrics with the letter with the wrong middle name or would this cause an issue later on?

Hoping they don't scrap the whole application.
