If the difference between the two amounts was down to fees and costs incurred he would be entitled to claim the larger amount.
Hope this helps

Should the creditor show the amount stated in the statutory demand to the trustee. The creditor claimed that he was owed £1,087 in the statutory demand. He then showed the trustee in bankruptcy that I owed him £4,597.00. Should the creditor showed that the trustee the same amount that he stated in the SD? In his petition for my bankruptcy he also was claiming that I owed him £1,087 but he told the trustee I owed him £4,597. Was the creditor only entitled to £1,087 or can he add more money to this before the bankruptcy hearing?
