I have gone back to letting agent to pass my questions and concerns over (questions on the first post) to the electrical company and they have just responded with the following: We have reviewed the EICR again and stand by what we have advised, the parts where the LL suggested the work doesn't...

Thanks for this. It's a shame the guy in the YouTube video is not near to me in Essex, as I would get him to do another test. I plan to get a CU in the future, but it will be in-between tenants to reduce any upheaval for them. I feel this has been unfairly tested and is just taking advantage...
