You can apply to switch to 28 and is 100% possible .I had the same type of residence but I told the foreign office I want to switch to 28 and they agreed .

Dear @Tony1111, 

Thank you for your contribution! I am happy to hear that you did not face any problems regarding the residence permit according to section 28. However, unfortunately people in similar situations may face potential issues as well. Please see the link I gave in my answer above for further information. 

Looking forward to hear from you again. 

Best, 

Meike
