Miles & More (Lufthansa, Austrian, Swiss, and other partners) - paid BD Business I-Class and M&M

I would like to know if I will get miles for a paid British Midland (BD operated too)
flight VIE-LHR-VIE in I-Class Business Class.This Class is not mentioned on the M&M webpage.
It is not an award class, I booked it in a BD sale.
Anybody taken an I-Class flight with BD and got correct miles (2000+ Status Bonus) ?
Another question, what to expect on an afternoon flight with BD LHR-VIE in Business Class, espec. catering ; in comparison to BA Afternoon Tea or on OS ?

kind regards,

Ettrich

hm, interesting.
I'd assume you get the full C class miles when crediting to M&M (2500 miles incl exec bonus).

can't find it now, but we had some issues with promo C fares by bmi that used I for whatever weird reason. Resolved only after escalated reto claim.

Many Thanks to DownUnderFlyer for the conclusive link, so good news indeed.
About the service question "catering on afternoon flight in C" I am going to ask in the BD forum,

kind regards,

I bought couple of times a BD ticket from YYZ to RUH via LHR in business class I fare bucket and I always got the full business class mileage for that trip.

Some how BD system can diffrentiate between the award tickets booked in I class and revenue tickets booked also in the same class I class :confused:
