I booked one a few days ago as well, and there was no mention of or attempt to charge a fee. Entire process was pleasant, efficient, and took about 3 minutes end to end.
Complimentary Upgrades now attract a service fee?

Quick question on these upgrades... In the past I've used 1 of the complimentary upgrades to upgrade a multi sector booking (ie: SYD-MEL-HBA). I just went to use them tonight and was told it's "per sector" and subsequently used 4 for the above-mentioned booking (return). Is this now correct?

Yes that's right. The change occurred at the same time as the Sabre migration last year. Previously you would earn status credits on Syd-Mel-Hba as if it were direct Syd-Hba. Now you earn based in each sector and so you burn the same way. What you lose on the swing you gain on the roundabout...

I think VA did too... they missed most of the memo's relating to Sabre...
