[QUOTE="MattA, post: 2303925, member: 38793"] Was it a Business Saver fare by any chance? That's the only way I think you can get to 155 SCs: CNS - BNE is 865 miles, which puts it in Zone 2. Earn rate for Zone 2 J Saver prior to Aug 19 when the DSC offer ran was 60 SC. Enhanced rate for Business Saver fares under the new offer is 95 SC. So they've given you the new base SCs under the latest promotion, plus the second set of 60 bonus SCs you would have got under the DSC offer. 95 + 60 = 155. So, sort of double dipping -- not quite double the 95 SCs offered under the latest offer, but better than either the 95 SCs under the current offer or the 120 SCs you would have got under the original DSC offer. They'll only make a difference if you're trying to get from Gold to Platinum (or if you weren't eligible for the auto extension to 2023). If you're already Platinum then any SCs earned before the 1 year extension kicks in will expire before they are useful for requalification. [/QUOTE]
