Just out of interest NS, how did you know that you were outside the "envelope" of a limited radar service?
Particular example that prompted this was the other day - asked for a RAS on first contact with Warton, flying straight towards them, and was given a limited RAS at the edge of radar cover or some such phraseology (I was not far south of DCS at FL75). Never did get it "unlimited". Also had a case not long ago with Leeming where the limitation was due an "area of poor radar performance". But then maybe that covers everywhere within 40nm of Leeming!
