Changing award booking after 25th May?????

[Cosmo]

Hello, my first time posting but hope you guys can help me with this one.
Ive got 2 award bookings made for Melbourne to frankfurt in Sept which Ive booked at the current point cost.
If I change the dates until early 2006 do I only get the 5000 point penalty for changes or will it be the 5000 plus the balance of what the new points will be after 25th May
(hoping that Ive beat the system if its only the 5000 point change penalty)
Your feedback is appreciated.

I have enquired about this with Qantas and if you book a flight before 25th May and make any changes after 25th May then the pre 25th May rules apply. So if you book a flight to London today to fly in February 2006 costing 110,000 points, then change this booking in January 2006 causing a ticket re-issue then you still pay 110,000 points.
