hey dont worry, don't loose your hope... all you have to do is make an appeal, home office must have sent you the form so do that.
I am facing the same refusal too i had 2 months shortage in my account

Do you have an overseas bank account with some amount in it like £200 in it? If you have then you need not to worry. You can also use overseas bank account statement. You can win the case on appeal. However if you are short by £800 for even a single day or moment. No one can help you. Because this is the law.
Lodge an appeal on the basis that you have an overseas bank account with enough money to cover what you were short by £800. You could say that you did not know earlier that overseas bank statements could be used.
But if you do not have any other bank account or statement in U.K or elsewhere to cover upto 800 pounds at any given time then sorry answer is negative. You wont get visa or appeal allowed.

Appeal. you got two options. one is - why you are not accepting the decision and second and important in your case is - statement of additional grounds - here explain your situation and why you should be allowed to stay in this country.
best of luck.

You should get legal representation who can argue on the basis that conditions in your home country are just not stable, you should be OK, find out as quickly if you have a case, if not then perhaps if you can maintain funds in the UK bank and get statements from here, wonder if that is possible, but not sure as I read somewhere that UK bank statements should not be more than 7 days old
