Here's an interesting story. Look at the following email conversation that I had with a student called Ebenezer. It shows that asking for a re-mark is a good idea if you really believe that you deserved a better score.

Hi Simon, how are you doing... I wrote my test and got a 6 in writing. I’m quite surprised to be honest it’s even lower than my previous scores. I’m really tired to be honest. I even feel IELTS is biased based on my country Nigeria. I know a few colleagues that end up writing in another country and passing. I will ask for a remark and see. Because I am really really confident than my writing was so much better.

Hi Ebenezer, I'm sorry to hear that the test is getting you down. I think you're right to ask for re-evaluation. Let me know how it goes! Best of luck, Simon

Hi Simon, I applied for the remark and result came out. My score was upgraded to a 7. I’m so so happy thank you so much.
Dear Simon,
If I happened to apply for a remark, would it be possible that my band score get lowered?

Norvin,
No, scores either go up or stay the same. They won’t be lowered.
