Well I just realised I had used a setting of ISO 200 on my ISO 400 XP2 film. I've just seen on *******'s site that they can uprate by -2 or +2 stops although I only need to comoensate for one stop of overexposure. Does anyone know if they'll be able to fix this keeping in mind XP2 goes through the C41 process?
 
It will be fine processed normally, XP2 is fantabulous film which can be shot between asa 200-800 and still processed normally.

You can even mix speed on the same roll of film.

If you decide not to then find the proessing speed that inside the box or on the website, and minus 33% processing time per iso stop.
You can do a clip test to find out if the time is long enough, or take the risk and just process it.

I just found this so you shoud be fine

XP2 SUPER film has a speed rating of
ISO 400/27° (400ASA, 27DIN, EI 400/27) to
daylight. The ISO speed rating was measured
using standard C41 processing. Although rated at
ISO 400/27°, XP2 SUPER can be exposed over the
range EI 50/18–800/30. When higher speed is
needed, XP2 SUPER can be rated at up to
EI 800/30. For finer grain, when speed is less
important, rate the film at EI 200/24, although for
finest grain it can be rated as low as EI 50/18 if
required.
The practical implications of this wide exposure
range are very important. XP2 SUPER can be
exposed at a setting to suit the job. The benefit of
variable speed also provides security against
inadvertent over- or underexposure.
It should be noted that the exposure index (EI)
recommended for XP2 SUPER is based on a
practical evaluation of film speed and is not based
on foot speed, as is the ISO standard

What you have done is a GOOD thing, !!! use standard processing times, all you will get is negatives which are a little more dense, with finer grain. Print time will be slightly longer, not an issue to you if your having them done by machine.

I use to work with XP1, ( the original version) and process myself, often rated at 100 or 200 to help with bigger enlargements.

It's great film, sometimes didn't have the gritty bite of a "silver" film.
 
Thanks for the info guys. Went into the shop and 5 of them said oh noes untill another guy walked by and said exactly the same thing as you guys :D
