I heard back the next day and the person who spoke to me asked me (a) if I am aware of the £1800 annual fee and (b) if I have an annual income in excess of £200k. Yes, to both, so they have passed my details to the Centurion invite team and said that I should expect to hear from them within a week or so.

Just one quick question for you: what do they ask for in terms of proof of income? My financial affairs are complex, and I don't have payslips as such, although I do have bank statements backing it up...
