Surely writing to ICAP may be the best means available to get clarifications. And I reckon so far the Institute may have received quite some emails on the subject including mine. We can anticipate that soon clarification of these changes will be provided.
However, the main concern, the fate of students who didn't qualify within the given number of attempts, the link provided by the shani clearly gives the answer without any two meanings. I reproduce the particular question and the answer as given on ICAP's website
Question I am a student of Module D. What if I am not able to pass Module D in six attempts? Am I required to redo from Module A or will I be given credit for Foundation?
Answer As per present policy, you will not be allowed to pursue chartered accountancy in any manner.
Wow! That's a major change in policy, and still wonder why the Institute needed to do it. The question didn't specifically mention about Module E and F, though presumably same is supposed to be true of these as well.
Coming to the point of previously issued certificates, I think the pointed provided by Mr. Kamran is valid that

<br />your CA inter etc will remain uncounted towards any further endeavor. Yes, if you don't get onto it from scratch people may call and accept you as part qualified. (You cannot mention it as a qualification and designation).
<hr height="1" noshade id="quote"></font id="quote"></blockquote id="quote">
Part qualified people I don't think need to right about their qualification at any place other than their re'sume', and I think in the absence of any clear cut instructions abstaining from mentioning that, the practice will be acceptable.
Other question that yet are unanswered are the number of attempts for a student going for a combined attempt. According to the policy they are supposed to be six (upto inter) and hopefully clarifications will be available soon. The other question relevant to same scenario is more important that what if a student has attempted two combined modules but onwards due to limited attempts he wants to take modules one by one? May be in this case he will not deemed to be eligible until he passes two papers (i.e. he is promoted to next module as per previous policy).
As soon as I receive I reply from the Institute I will share here.
