iDine/Rewards Network - No points, but what about Dines to VIP Status

I went to a restaurant/bar where I'd been before and had earned miles previously. Unfortunately, I only just realised that they're not awarding miles for dines tonight; all this after I made an effort to spread my orders over multiple cards. (Should have checked online before. Doh!!)

Does anyone know whether these transactions will still count towards qualifying for VIP status?

No. If you did not earn miles, the dine will not count toward status.

Disappointing :( I'll just have to be more careful in the future about qualifying nights.
Thanks!

We all make these errors from time-to-time.
