I would say: just let it be.

Being gold and all, you would be better advised to spend your time organizing your next bookings. There are some great deals to be had, inclusive of extra bonus miles until 31/07, and the whole lot.

Otherwise you can join the "BA and SQ are so much better" Emirates-bashing-crowd... and whine and cry and/or complain all you like. I am sure that the international network that the likes of BA and SQ have on offer out of GLA beats EK hands down,... NOT!!!!

Seriously, after you've experienced BA's "LHR crisis management" once in your life, you know better than to start immediately complaining about the EK service, or about your plane going tech, or about being offered some accomodation somewhere far away in Scotland.

My guess is: they won't deduct your miles, although they almost certainly just won't tell you in so many words,... so as to not set a precedent.

My advice: Be smart: don't complain (if you don't really have to).
